Films

The Bourne Identity (2002)
[4th watch]

The last time I watched a Bourne film was when I saw The Bourne Ultimatum for the first and (to date) last time way back in December 2007, which means it's somewhere in the region of six or seven years since I last saw this. And it's 11 years old now! Crikey! Still feels quite fresh though, and I think its influence is still apparent on cinema -- just look at Euro-thrillers like the year-before-last's Unknown, for example.

The latest Bourne film, Legacy, is on Sky Movies Premiere from next Friday. I've had it on Blu-ray for a while now, intending to do a full series re-watch in the lead up to it (what with it being so long since I last saw any of them), so now's finally the time. If all goes to plan, expect to see Supremacy here tomorrow, Ultimatum on Monday, and Legacy on Tuesday, with a 100 Films review to follow before it's on TV (hopefully!)

Matt Smith to leave after Christmas Special
by Chuck Foster (from Doctor Who News)

Well, there you go. I do like Smith, but I can't help but feel this is one in the eye for all those smug whatnots who misread his comments months ago and assumed he'd already confirmed he was in series 8.

Collection Count

Collection Count tracks my DVD/Blu-ray collection via a number of statistics every week.

This week, I got the two '60s Dalek movies on Blu-ray, replacing my old DVD. Aside from a calculation error on the number of films, that's it.

Number of titles in collection: 1,565 [no change]
Of which DVDs: 1,162 [down 1]
Of which Blu-rays: 403 [up 1]

Number of discs in collection: 3,908 [no change]
Number of films in collection: 1,678 [down 2]
Number of TV episodes in collection: 5,765 [no change]
Number of short films in collection: 380 [no change]

See you next week, faithful reader.
