Death will be mine!

Right. So one of my favorite movies is Death Takes a Holiday. Love it, love it, LOVE it. However, so not available on DVD. :( Amazon.com has some "burn upon request" thing for $17.99, but what you get is playable on regular DVD players, but not, possibly, on recorders or PC. Since all my viewing is done via laptop these days, well--that sucks.

HOWEVER! I was elated to find that you CAN indeed find Death Takes a Holiday on a mass-market DVD! There's only one downside.

It's a fucking extra on the Meet Joe Black Ultimate Edition.

I fucking HATE Meet Joe Black. >:|

But buy.com has the Meet Joe Black Ultimate Edition for a mere $6.87 + $2.99 s&h. So I figure it was worth the $10 to buy the shit that is MJB to FINALLY have my precious DTaH on lovely, lovely DVD. *hugs e-receipt* I am verah excited, people. :D

And who knows? It's been 10 years since I saw MJB. Maybe I'll like it now. Even if the ending *is* shit. >:|

Well, the only time I really liked Brad Pitt was when John Malkovich punched him in the face in Burn after Reading not that I liked much else of the movie.

See, therein lies the problem. I DO like Brad Pitt. He's pretty to look at and he's no worse an actor than most of them. But I am a HUGE romantic at heart and I hated hated HATED (foot stomp!) the ending of Meet Joe Black. I'm a firm believer that sometimes the ogre can keep the fair maiden, dammit.

...if she's okay with that, mind you.
