Look, just because you're gay now, you don't have to take it out on us. Be a man about it.

I know you're joking, but this DVD swapping site will actually let you trade outright (directly from another user) for another DVD that you want.

I guarantee you will find a taker for that new release in about 2 seconds flat.

. . .

Unfortunately, however, you've already caught teh ghey.

If by being gay you mean being in tune with your feminine side, as opposed to finding another man's penis sexually stimulating, I think you're probably still safe. If you watch the film there are buckets of gore, and none of the protagonists are remotely effete. With the possible exception of Sacha Baron Cohen, but he's just pretending.

I loved it, as did HM. And this is a man who would rather stick hot pins in his eyes than watch 95% of musicals. The Nightmare Before Christmas being another exception.

I'd take it off your hands, but it'd be the wrong region for me.

Ehh. I tried the DVD trading thing with Peerflix. It turned out nobody had anything I was interested in.

and why would you shell out money to buy a dvd you've never seen before anyway? I only buy dvds that I've seen and know I'd like to see over and over.

otherwise, rent.

it's because I'm stinking rich. I can't be bothered with renting.

If you're like me, you just watch them once and throw them away.

no! i tried to hang in for 5 minutes, but jinx kept clawing at me and shreiking "make it stop!!!" like a banshee with it's ass on fire!


the thing that made it worse was that we watched the bonus disc first to get some background on Sweeney Todd. NO mention of it being a musical. Johnny Depp singing? so sad.
