30 films watched so far this year - very happy about this :)

Still working through the Hammer Horror Dracula and Frankenstein films. The only dud so far has been Evil of Frankenstein, and that's mostly because Frankenstein needs to act outrageously stupid in order to forward the plot.

Spirits was every bit as good as I'd remembered, and Lost in Translation was a fabulous little film. Certainly not one I'd have picked up if it hadn't been for angriest's best movies of the last decade list, which has turned me on to some great little flicks - so thanks Grant!

I have still never seen Spirits - been meaning to for years. Is it even available on DVD?

[drew-bowie.livejournal.com]

AFAIK, it's never been. I'd kill for a copy though!

I lost my VHS copy years ago, but have since lucked into a 700meg .avi dump from VHS.

I'm slow, and I'm not sure my burner is working, but in the absence of legitimate copies that can be bought, would be happy to run off a copy.

I still hope to get Proyas to a con with Nick Stathopoulos and Lewis Morley so they can do a live commentary :)

Awesome. And I can verify that it has never been released on DVD, and in fact, is impossible to purchase on VHS with only one known copy in existence in a rental video library in QLD, as of about 6 years ago.

Take your time :)
