I guess I won't be watching this DVD tonight...
« on: September 15, 2010, 11:47:51 AM »
The 1979 Albert Brooks movie Real Life had been on "Long Wait" status in my Netflix queue for a long time, but it finally arrived yesterday. I was going to take a peek at the film this morning before work, but this is what I found when I slipped the disc out of the envelope:



That is one angry looking crack there. (It's not really clear in this photo, but you can actually see through the disc in several places.) I'm not sure I even want to know what my mail man was doing to inflict such damage to it. I just hope it's not Netflix's last copy.

Yea, I've had this happen multiple times. Once I had to get 3 disk with Camera Buff and 3 disk again with The Color of Money.

It's the exception, though, but yea, it stinks when you wait a long time for a movie and then it arrives busted.
