Just ordered Waking Up Dead on DVD and since it’d be something stupid like $5 to ship, but an additional $8 item would qualify for free shipping I also ordered a copy of Blink. (yeah, I fell right into the master plan)
I ordered the DVD because it doesn’t look like Netflix will pick up the movie anytime soon – if ever. I first saw the trailer on the WUD website a while back and have been waiting for it to show up on DVD for ages. I’m interested for a few reasons.
I dig movies about the music industry, bands, musicians and things like that. Fictional is cool, but documentaries like this are even better. I dig Phil Varone. He was the drummer for Saigon Kick (if you haven’t noticed from the list of music I listen to on the left sidebar – one of my favorite bands) although by the time they filmed this he was with Skid Row. I dig blow, beer, tits and blow jobs.
All the ingredients are there, I had to snag a copy.
As far as the Blink book goes. It came as an Amazon recommendation based on my purchase/love of the Freakonomics book and if I remember correctly, Gator over at CoasterBuzz also recommended it.
Looks exactly like the type of crap I like to read and the kind of thing I could blow through in a few hours and enjoy. I’ll probably take it to Florida to pass an afternoon at the in-laws. (depending on the delivery date, I might just be watching the DVD on the drive down as well)
So those are my latest entertainment choices and since I seem to post about every little thing I buy, I figured I’d post this too.
