Cube Posted April 30, 2012 Posted April 30, 2012 Working my way through TNG (just started season 4) and felt like owning these films (First Contact was actually my introduction to Star Trek, so I have a vast fondness for it). I may buy the Trilogy and 6 Blu-Rays at a later date. The other two I refuse to own.
Raining_again Posted May 1, 2012 Posted May 1, 2012 I would say the same back to you but the fact is you were never cool
bob Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 BUTTScratcheeeeeeeeeeer!!?! I just bought this: for my girlfriend. But secretly i think i'm going to get some joy out of it too...
Shorty Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 (edited) Grabbed that Friends boxset last year when it was about £25. Seriously enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. Watching the whole series in order is so much better than seeing constantly repeated reruns on E4/comedy central, which is enough to put anyone off the show forever (but keep lining the actors' pockets indefinitely). Much of the world seemed to go through a phase of acting like they were too cool to find Friends funny. One of those "it's popular so I don't like it", things. But that show has some damn hilarious moments and didn't even get tired 10 seasons in. Edited May 2, 2012 by Shorty "phase", not "phrase".
bob Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Agreed. I think people are too harsh about Friends. The number of times i find myself quoting it even by accident is amazing. The fact that it managed to stay consistently good for 10 seasons without jumping the shark makes it great, i think.
Dannyboy-the-Dane Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Brilliant box set! I concur with everything said.
Coolness Bears Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 I quote it heavily. Not even the good/well known ones. "It's different, it's interesting" I say a lot.
bob Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 I use 'Tastes like feet' an awful lot. Says a lot about my cooking I know...
Jon Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Friends is the perfect example of something that is 'hated' purely because it's so popular. I often find myself copying the phrasing Ross uses when talking with Chandler and Joey about Joey's tailor, 'That is how the measure pants........IN PRISON.'
Daft Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Freinds was/is great. Had a bit of a lull but got to love the Phoebe.
MoogleViper Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Friends wasn't great TV. It was an excellent example of easy watching TV. Brain-not-needed television.
Retro_Link Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 I didn't realise there was hate for FRIENDS/'It's popular so It's lame'. I Love it, always have! Got the box-set too! [well ok so they utterly ruined it momentarily with the Joey/Rachel scenario]
Raining_again Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Haw much/where from, out of interest? me? amazon - £80 BUTTScratcheeeeeeeeeeer!!?! I just bought this: for my girlfriend. But secretly i think i'm going to get some joy out of it too... I have it as well :3
ReZourceman Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Hate for friends? I have genuinely, 100% never heard anyone ever say they've disliked it. Everyone loves it. Surely its the ONE thing out of everything, where if you don't like it, you're weird.
MoogleViper Posted May 2, 2012 Posted May 2, 2012 Like a guy who's a Nanny. A Manny? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!
LegoMan1031 Posted May 4, 2012 Posted May 4, 2012 Star Trek Deep Space Nine Season 7 Final DS9 series, I may go all teary eyed!
Ashley Posted May 4, 2012 Author Posted May 4, 2012 £585. My laptop is long overdue for replacement (currently having problems just running Chrome). Intel® Core™ i7-2600 8GB RAM Nvidia GeForce GT 545 2TB Other stuff
EEVILMURRAY Posted May 4, 2012 Posted May 4, 2012 Where was that from @Ashley? Like a guy who's a Nanny. Awesome film.
bryanee Posted May 5, 2012 Posted May 5, 2012 Both really cheap. Bloodsport is amazing and Timecop aint that bad either. Homefront SP is meh but I enjoyed the multiplayer and this comes with all the DLC and I got it dirt cheap for a tenner.
