Dodgy DVDs gone with the re-wind!

-

I WAS paying for petrol yesterday and looked around only to realise they no longer sell those DVDs of films that never made it into the cinemas.

When I got home, I thought I’d watch the classic Gone In 60 Seconds on DVD but I couldn’t find it anywhere. I was sure it was there a minute ago.

I guess I must have disc-arded it. Rick Astley is not great at lending out his Disney DVD collection. He’ll share Finding Nemo, but he’s never gonna give you Up.

When Blockbuste­r Video decided to upgrade from VHS and started renting out and selling DVDs, I went down to my local store right away as I wanted to get my hands on all the old Arnie Terminator movies.

I abandoned my search after a couple of minutes and sheepishly asked an assistant where they were located. The answer I got was “aisle B, back”.

Talking of back, the other night Monica and I watched three James Bond DVDs back to back.

Luckily, I was the one facing the telly, but I did make an effort to let her know what was happening during all the best bits. Anyhow, I admit I once tried to shoplift a Bond DVD, but the security guard scared The Living Daylights out of me.

The worst DVD I ever bought was one that supposedly dealt with disappoint­ment in life…

When I got it home, the box was empty. Mind you, I suppose that means it was actually good, but I never bothered with the follow-up in case it was just more of the same.

After we bought our first DVD player, we hammered it so much it broke within a couple of months.

The disc drive busted. Oh well, that’s ejectile disfunctio­n for you.
