Finally, the picks of the week. Alex says, “While I couldn’t have previously seen the 1968 BBC series, as a fan of Peter Cushing, I kinda need to pick the BBC Sherlock Holmes collection up. On the anime side of things, I’m going to hope the Gundam Compilation movies collection gets a compiled boxed set release, because otherwise those releases aren’t economical to pick up individually. So, I’m picking up Nanoha A‘s instead.” Blaine says, “I found Run Lola Run a very interesting watch when it was new, but I haven’t revisited it. That should be interesting to do.”

One reply

  1. That reminds me, I need to finish Season One of Fallout. I’m not well-versed in the lore, but it was a solid post-apocalyptic story.
