  2. Yes but it's nothing hard to find. I want a Forum snowboard with Ride bindings and Vans boots, alot of DVDs (Alien Quadrilogy, Snatch, Resevoir Dogs, Almost Famous), some vinyl records (Led Zeppelin III, Simon & Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water). I just need some money. Lol.

     

    Actually one thing I would like to see and don't even know if it exists is a DVD of the James Bond parody based on Ian Fleming's novel original Bond novel, "Casino Royale". That would be sweet.

    it does exist, but when i went back to find it it was gone, now i cant find it again i want casino royale as well. :lol:
