Galactica rules and emptying the wallet
The R1 Battlestar Galactica season 1 DVD box arrived yesterday, not via customs but via Belgium instead ^_^ We watched the mini-series in the evening. I though we’d watch it in parts but it turned out to be one of those “once you pop, you can’t stop” type of things. And we still have all of season 1 to see! I can hardly wait.
Dugi did a bit of DVD shopping of his own. He visited Anttila sale and got Alias season 1 box, the Ilsa box (yes, really) and some Vlad the Impaler movie I hadn’t heard of (and forgot the name already) [edit: it’s Dark Prince: The True Story of Dracula]. I’m actually quite pleased since I probably wouldn’t have bought them myself but I like to co-own them. Except for the Ilsas, maybe.
My VISA bill for January is going to be pretty damn impressive and I don’t mean in a good way, even if most of my purchases have been on major sale. Here’s the orders list: Tipping the Velvet (a BBC mini-series), X-Files season 1 box, Dogville, Jacob’s Ladder, Angel Heart, X-Men 2 special edition, Battlestar Galactica mini-series/season 1 box, Secretary (for a friend), Tipping the Velvet (for a friend), Flash Gordon silver anniversary edition, Countess Dracula/The Vampire Lovers (for Dugi ^_^) and just last night Battlestar Galactica R2 mini-series and season 1 box (for my dad as a gift).
On top of this I spent almost 100 euros in the Anttila sale: the 5 Angelique movies ^_^ (hey, have to balance out Ilsa somehow!), Carnivàle season 1 box (and what a pretty box it is!), Stupeur et tremblements (Fear and Trembling or Nöyrin palvelijanne), Argento’s Suspiria and Kim Ki-duk’s Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter… and Spring (Viisi vuodenaikaa).
Man.
But I can afford it all, luckily.
In February I’ll invest only in the Tori video DVD and Serenity. And MirrorMask, maybe. And… perhaps I’ll stop planning right here.
(Addict.)

I’m soooo jealous that you get to buy all that stuff! Luckily you’ll borrow them to me when I get back to Finland, right? ;)
Yeah, it’s not like you can lend your Aussie trip! ;) Jealous… *hrmph*
Of course I will. Hugs!
That’s true, the new Galactica series is excellent. I have watched the second season already, and now I have to wait for the third season until next fall :( At least I can hope for the dvd release of the second season. Of course I already have the miniseries and the 1st season on dvd :)
I’m really looking forward to all of the second season hitting DVD ^_^
