I got it via mail order for £35 including post and packaging.It arrived a day early again?

Super crisp HD transfer and sound as you would expect.
One of the most enjoyable of all the comic book based series at the moment,featuring the alternate universe storyline,time travel plots,superb crossover episodes and brilliantly setups for future episodes,the Speed Force encounter and an amazing cliffhanger.Seems to mix fun,sheer spectacle and emotion with effortless perfection.

Extras :

Featurettes
Deleted scenes
Gag reel

How much was it without post & packaging? Just asking as I got my copy today from my local hmv and it was £29.99. Also just like with arrow, legends of tomorrow & supergirl, you get a digital HD copy of the series
^^^I got mine for £22.99 free delivery. Smile

It was £29.99 in the catalogue,I forgot to mention that,also forgot to mention the digital HD copy too.There was also an exclusive poster.
Mine had an exclusive top trumps card so beat that laugh
Although a frustratingly, unbalanced season,I recommend Gotham Season 2(2015/16)

I got it from Granger Games at a reduced price of £22.

Despite some tedious plot lines as was the same in season 1,the acting is first rate even though some of the character development leaves you not really caring.This season is slightly more consistent overall.

Extras :

Panel
Featurettes

I recommend Naked Lunch(1991)

Just bought the steelbook edition via mail order from Zavvi for £5.99.No extras like the criterion version has but a super transfer that makes the film look better than ever.A great bargain for stunning looking steelbook.
After some events i thought would recommend some blu ray's but will have do it in two parts.
The blu ray i would highly recommend is the Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan steelbook which i picked up from Zoom in a sale at £9.99 with more money off using a discount code. The steel book is a 50th anniversary of Star trek and the front art work is the classic Wrath of Khan film poster, the inside art work is cool with the star trek title and the back has a 50th anniversary art work. Also the title of the film on the front is debossed giving it a cool look.
Picture quality wise its a great transfer best your gonna get till it gets a 4k transfer. Sound quality is amazing you get a 5.1/7.1 True HD Dolby Transfer and it sounds great on a home cinema system. You get two versions of the film, the theatrical and directors cut of the film plus a ton of extras which rpj316 already covered. Only negatives is i wish the steel book had a gloss finish and came with a digital copy.
Second recommendation is Star Trek VI The Undiscovered Country again from the same site with the sale price and discount again cracking art work on the front it looks the same as one of the Star Trek Beyond posters pics will be below, the inside and back artwork are the same as the Wrath of Khan steelbook and but this time the film title is embossed and it looks great.
Picture quality wise its stunning which this film deserves, everything is crystal clear and the colours pop out and are rich and deep. Sound quality just as impressive as The Wrath of Khan 5.1/7.1 True HD Dolby mix and it sounds fantastic on a home cinema system. Extras wise theres over two hours worth. Again only negative no gloss finish and digital copy and its part of the 50th anniversary which you can collect including the next gen films the reboots are not included. You can buy all thr films together or on there but i highly recommend them. If had the money i would but them lol.
Lastly for now i recommend season 2 of The Flash those of you who know its probably my fav show and one my fav characters aside from Superman and Batman, i loved season 2 and the twist with the villain and the season finale.
Picture wise the transfer is stunning dare i say its actually better then HD broadcast that was on sky. The sound quality is stunning again better then the HD tv broadcast its a 5.1/DTS-HD transfer when you listen to the Ep's through a home cinema system every sound like a punch, lightning, flash or zoom running, anyome talking and the different sound track scores are just amazing.
Extras wise theres a digital copy and over 4 hours worth of extras which rpj316 has already covered in detail not bad for £22.99 which is how much i got it for even at full price highly recommend it.
Highly recommend Paths Of Glory(1957)

I got it from Granger Games for £15.Released from The Masters Of Cinema series.Beautifully remastered picture and sound.

Extras :

Commentary
Interviews
Music track
Trailer
Collectable booklet
Highly recommend Underworld on blu ray I know it's a older film but a friend of mine recommended I get because I liked the Blade films.
First of all it's the special extended edition of film so you get a longer cut of the film not that I would notice as I've never never seen the normal cut of the film.
It's great picture transfer as all ways 1080p so the film left looks so crisp and detailed, sound quality wise it's fantastic with its 5.1 mix. Extra wise there's tons, commentary, a making of, outtakes, visual effects, creature effects, a story board, tv spots, stunts, sights and sounds feature, a music video and more.
I was lucky to find it for £1.79 and it looks totally brand new.
Just bought Green Room(2015)

I got it for £8 from a local Monday market.

Jeremy Staulnier's follow up to Blue Ruin.This is a savage tale about a punk band that are held up in a bar in the Pacific Northwest fighting for their lives against a group of neo Nazis.The film looks great on blu ray and it features a great cast including Patrick Stewart and the late Anton Yelchin.
