  • I finally received The Fight Back to School boxset last week. I preordered it back in mid-August with Lady Reporter. I also picked up the Wicker Man box, Touch of Evil, and Magic Cop.

    Magic Cop is a blast. The ending has great non-stop action and time melts away.

    I don’t know if I would recommend the Wicker Man boxset. I’m mostly disappointed that the source material for two cuts of the film are in bad shape. The box itself is kind of meh and expensive. The movie is perfect folk horror.

    Lady Reporter is okay. The story is a bit of a mess, but action set pieces were fun.




  • Look up a free program called Handbrake. It converts video files to mkv, mp4, and webM. It also handles subtitles. If you need mpeg only then this person’s setup is too old. You can check wikiHow to convert files to mpeg.

    I second the recommendation to get a media box or a cheap bluray player that has a usb slot. Burning dvds will be a pain in the ass because you have to manage file sizes, take time to burn the dvds, and you will end up with useless piles of plastic discs when you’re done. Sharing one or two usb drives is much easier.
