If so what is next? Hopefully it will be something I have or can get my hands on.  ;D

Anybody is free to start the next. Volunteers?  ;D

Here's your chance Rick! You choose, that way you have no worries whether you own it or not ;D

I finally finished!

Dissolution 8/10
This had loads of great horror/thriller moments. So cleverly used to build a feeling of doom. Really liked the twist that Marsha never actually specified Professional Couple, and a nice cameo from Ricky Gervais. Sad that that brilliant cake got destroyed though. Ends with one of the best Star Wars references. And, oh my, isn't Sophie fit?  :laugh:

Leaves 9/10
Great ending. Started well with a spot on Royle Family tribute (a great sitcom in itself, though very "real"), then the last half felt really slick. Like all the good work and preparation had paid off as they closed off all the little plot lines. I think Mike finding out about his rabbit is my favourite bit, mind you Tim saying he's better at communication and Mike/Brian just mumbling was good too.

I hope they find a way to do some sort of follow up one day. The team have successfully done a horror movie (Shaun), a buddy cop movie (Hot Fuzz), maybe it's time to tackle the romantic comedy and bring back Tim and Daisy?

Ideas for the next one: As a nice follow-up to Spaced, does anyone have Black Books?

Achim

Don't even kow what Black Books is :bag:

Najemikon

A Brit sitcom set in a bookshop with Dylan Moran as the owner. He hates customers and frequently demands they leave him alone! Moran has to be the best at making misery so funny; his stand up routine is similar. Bill Bailey (comic shop owner in Spaced) comes to work for him and so begin a series of at times very bizarre stories. Simon Pegg crops up at one point.

It isn't perfect, but when it hits the mark it's better than anything.

Looks like there is a chance, that Spaced is coming to RC1.

News on the RC1 release of Spaced.
Looks like it's going to be pretty much the very same thing as the R2 discs I already own, except for that stupid Quentin Tarantino quote on the cover...

To those who will buy this: This is a great set!

Lucky Yank bastards! :tease: I've just read the Empire review of the region 1 version and it's a lot more than a quote from Tarantino; he does a couple of commentaries, along with Kevin Smith, Diablo Cody and Matt Stone amongst others. Apparently QT is on the QT at first, but livens up during the Pulp Fiction parody...
