Serial Experiments Lain on Blu-Ray, as soon as I figure out where I'm gonna get $300 to buy it.

Would that be a true remastered 1080p/720p or just an upscale? I saw this but I read it's stereo and it might not be truehd...

I read that they did a new transfer for it, but I don't know what if anything was done with the audio.

Hmmm... might be best to wait then and get some final details, see if the video is at least properly done, I love Lain, but if it's just going to be a half-assed job then it's not worth getting imo

If it's a new transfer, it's more likely than not 1080p.

But...you're not waiting for the Merkin release?

Nah, even if it was definitive that it will get a US release, I'd still get this one. I already have 6 different boxsets of the DVDs, remember?

Oh yes, I remember, I wouldn't dare to suggest otherwise. I'm kind of the same way about Ghost in the Shell, although I did skip the domestic release of Ghost in the Shell: Innocence because of the lack-of-dub travesty.

Except I don't have to get them when they come out -- I can wait a little bit until I found out if anything is drastically wrong, or there is definitively a better version (in the case of GitS:I -- the European version ended up being far superior, having a dub voiced by the same cast as GitS:SAC.

Ah so you're a collector then, you'll probably get it either way then, I would however still wait, unless it's a limited edition boxset

all the real mexicans come in and order beef tongue (lengua) so i gotta stay authentic

Great stuff! I go out of my way to find lengua at the Mexican places!

Justin, that's just nasty looking.

Now this is surprising to say the least. I never met a girl who didn't like a little tongue in her taco now and then!

I tried really hard to find a good Cyber Monday deal on a home theater system for my basement TV.

Instead I just bought two six packs of beer.

I didn't get in on any BF CM "deals" either. First year in a while.

Instead I brought shame on my household by getting the "wrong" piece of Japanese steel, perhaps the "right" stone, a X-Mini 2, some resistors from PcX and a book on vintage cocktails and the domain hwhack.us.

Ah so you're a collector then, you'll probably get it either way then, I would however still wait, unless it's a limited edition boxset

It is limited edition, comes in a nice box with an artbook of production sketches and a couple soundtracks (that every collector already has multiple copies of by now). I know I'll be able to find copies on yahoo japan auctions for years to come, but whether it'll cost more or less depends on just how many they make. I think I'll keep an eye on used copies for the next few months, as it'll probably be cheapest from anybody wanting/needing to offload their copy right away, then the used price will rise sharply once the stores are all sold out.

Agh, if this was just another DVD release I could easily ignore it for now, but a new transfer for Blu-Ray and the first pressing is limited edition? If it weren't for the fact that I literally do not have the money right now, I probably would've already ordered it.

Bought another pair of polarized Oakley Fives. Lost my pair last Wednesday after getting shitfaced at the local watering hole

I tried to spend some money too, but just didn't find anything I really wanted. I think I'll use my Daber M3 speakers (having a 3rd one built) and build my own surround speakers. Eventually would like to go with Emotiva processor and amp too.

Good to see you back on!

One of my faves.

Here's to hoping the roommate I purchased it for is willing to share *fingers crossed*.

Couldn't find anything to buy either.

I stumbled across a stash of 2SJ109's at a local store and I bought some more carbon film resistors. I'm starting to think I might have a problem...
