apocalypsosYou know what's the best thing about cleaning your room? Finding Suncoast gift certificates you didn't know you had. *happy dance*
So, yeah, I found gift certificates, and so this morning I went to Suncoast to pick up a DVD wallet for my trip on Saturday and a DVD or two. And do you know what those bastards did? (Aside from putting the DVD wallets on a high shelf. *grumbles* Tall assholes.) They got rid of the "Under $10" section, that's what they did. Well, okay, they didn't entirely get rid of it, but what they kept was almost entirely those $8.99 crappy movie collections. (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dhaunea, if I had more cash to play with, I so would have bought the zombie movie collection and sent it to you. Ten bucks, nine bad zombie movies. You would have had a field day. ;))
They did leave a few decent "... the hell?!" movies in there, though -- I found Mars Attacks in there and was thiiiiis close to snatching it up when I saw Running On Empty for six bucks. BLAPHEMY. That movie is awesome, damn it. (And now it's MINE. MINE, MINE, MINE. Heh.) They also had With Honors for eight bucks, but there's only so many River Phoenix movies on the planet, unfortunately.
In other news, a review of Sky High. Well, it's nice to know it's not TOO horrible. I'm not going in expecting perfection by any means ... as long as they hit my bulletproof non-sexual entertainment kink of superpowered high school hijinks, I'm golden. :) (And it's not a surprise or anything, but apparently Disney's planning on making it into a TV series. Oh, God, I'm going to have to start watching a Disney Channel series, aren't I? Damn it, who do I have to kill to get a live-action X-Men TV series? *hits things*)
EDIT: I feel like I should add the fact that I taped that crappy Generation X TV movie a few years back and broke my tape watching it over and over and over again for lack of other options.
