Well this sequel completes the first trilogy of the mildly popular thread series.
Obligatory recap:
Hey all, I know how everyone likes to share/tell what new DVDs they're getting so I've decided to continue this series of threads, one for each week, where we all can post what new releases we're buying this upcoming Monday/Tuesday and see which ones are more popular.

Not as much as last week, but the content promises to be interesting, note that all are TV shows besides one:

Region 1

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (mmm Dr. Aki Ross... shut up, she is real!)

Merlin (Sam Neil & Rutger Hauer!)

Ultraviolet

Region 2

Farscape: Season 2 Boxset 5 (completes the first 2 seasons!)

Lexx Season 1 Feature-length episode 1 of 4: I Worship His Shadow
http://members.tripod.co.uk/BRDeckard/lexx1.jpg

Lexx S1 Ep2: Supernova
http://members.tripod.co.uk/BRDeckard/lexx2.jpg

Lexx S1 Ep3: Eating Pattern

Lexx S1 Ep4: GigaShadow
http://members.tripod.co.uk/BRDeckard/lexx4.jpg

Couldn't obtain these Lexx dvds with nicer covers from R1 Canada, all the stores seem out of stock. Season 2 volumes 1-4 are available in R1 now, with I think 2 more releases on the way to complete second season. Show is now on its 4th, they got to Earth's LA, should be pretty amusing.

So, what releases are you all getting? Yes, time flies fast, week after week, and money are going and going and you turn around and you got 50 more DVDs, and you watched only 15 of them, but anyway...

Great, you like Sex, Lies and Happiness! Did you see them yet? Expertly written witty conversations and situations, pretty depressing some of them, I love it!

Haven't seen either of them, wanted to see SL&V since I was about 11 managed to get it for £7 from TAU and Happiness (I really think Philip Seymour Hoffman is funny)

Looking forward to both films ;)

Just the one this week, which would be Final Fantasy.

Am I the only one who's thinking that despite poor box-office takings, it's going to recoup a fair amount on video sales?
