I have this friend who gets in these weird stages every few months where he wants to get rid of everything he owns. I don't mean SELL everything he owns, he just gives it away to whoever wants it, doesn't even care if they're good friends or what, he just basically... if you go into his house and you see something and want it, he's like "sure, go ahead."
So, I was over there last night and he's like "Hey, it's Labor Day, so.. I'm getting rid of all my movies. Uh... just see if there's anything you want." Some other dude was over there and took a Godzilla box set that had to have cost over $100. For free! This guy wants nothing in return! I don't know why he's like that but anyway, I scored these movies off of him:
Guy Maddin's Careful!
Ran
Mr. Vampire
Sakuya: Slayer of Dreams
Lizard in a Woman's Skin
Mule Skinner Blues
Psycho Beach Party
Kaiju Big Battel vol. 1
The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai
The Residents: Demons Dance Alone
The Residents: Kettle of Fish
Don't Torture a Duckling
By Brakhage
some burnt Stereolab DVD with all their videos on it, not sure what it is really
Sun Ra: Space is the Place
Tetsuo II: Body Hammer
New York Ripper
Meet the Feebles
Shark Skin Man and Peach Hip Girl
Captain N: The Game Master complete series
The Church
Mod Fuck Explosion
Long Dream
The only thing he wouldn't let me have is this Power Rangers best-of burnt DVD.
I felt bad, I kept going, "Uh.. are you SURE you don't want this?" He's like "I don't care." and I'd pick up some obscure movie and be like, "Is this good?" And he went, "Yeah, it's great! You should definitely take that one!" Hahaha.
Great guy (not just because he gave me movies), I just dunno exactly why he's like that. Keep in mind most of the things I listed were ACTUAL COPIES though there's some burns in there as well.
I'll give him a bunch of free old toys in return.. even though I don't "have to". I guess it's just weird for people to be so generous to me, I'm not used to it... maybe there's lots of people like this. I dunno. He's not, like, rich or anything. He has a decent amount of money, but certainly not enough to buy a bunch of actual copies of DVD's and give 'em away haha.
