What did you RECEIVE today? PHOTOS EDITION!

Sorry, I was being sarcastic? as it annoys me when I pay for something and it gets delayed for several months.
I don't like my money sitting in someone else's pocket.
I was seriously about to cancel last Tuesday.
Of course, others got their copy Wednesday, I got mine Thursday. 🤬
 
Does Rarewaves ship from the US or UK?

Ebay listing mentions its shipped from the UK but havent had any tracking

Jist getting worried as I shouldnt have international stuff sent to work 😅

Will also spoiler to protect the young childrens eye's from NSFW artwork!
Also looking forward to what 88 films put out next on the label as they've said they already have another 20 titles planned!
You'd think one HAS to be Ichi The Killer but getting that through the BBFC will be a challenge 🤞 that said with these and others like Untold Story getting through uncut they seem to have loosened up lately.

Yeah I am convinced that Ichi the Killer might have a good chance of being released uncut now. I reckon some of the 20 titles are probably license rescues from the Tartan Video era since I recall a lot of J-Horror/J-Violence were released by them.
 
I’m very curious to see just what they could get away with releasing that hasn’t been previously too, both from a BBFC and licensing standpoint - Japan has produced some very controversial horror films that I just can’t see being released over here.

Top tip! I missed this so thanks to you both for

It's an engaging sort-of-body-swap anime and handles it's themes really well such as the very human pain and cost of war and terrorism, it also balances that really well with the "smaller" interpersonal things of everyday human love and connection.

Here's a trailer for the series that I really love, I'm not really a super-sentai person but I adored it and I still wish they'd made the full 52-episode production run they had planned!

This does look very interesting and have also seen it mentioned a few times on the forum. Also not a super-sentai person but certainly intrigued. Guess I'll wait for a copy to come up on CEX as well now!

I think the majority of the 'good' Tartan Asia Extreme titles have already been mined by the likes of Arrow & Eureka apart from a few Miike titles (that aren't owned by the Yakuza... probably).
Could see them trying for lapsed licenses like Audition and maybe Tag but I'd prefer titles that haven't had UK releases.
Miike's 'The Mole Song' films would be great, I remember watching one at the Leeds Film Festival years ago and it was just insane but never got a physical release (was shown on a Miike day with live action Jojo & Blade of the Imortal, he loves anime adaptations!)

I still think it's mad that the only English home video release of Miikes Ace Attorney movie was on dvd in Australia. I got it from UP1 at Eirtakon when it was released and it did get a cinema screening here from a Digibeta master on 2 cassettes and it's pretty good.
