Something Odd in Fopp
While roaming the shelves of Fopp, a favourite if financially dangerous haunt, I came across the above DVD boxset. Now I won’t argue that £3 is a bargain of a price and it is the very reason I find shopping at Fopp so irrestistable, I just marvel at the fact that Groundhog Day has been paired with 50 First Dates. One is brilliant and the other horrible, I’ll let you guess which is which.
I can only imagine that they were paired as they involved a man constantly repeating his first date with a woman who has no memory of their previous dates. Kind of.
Madness.
Anyway here’s a choice soundbite from Groundhog Day.

Maybe they’re hoping that for £3 people won’t mind buying 1 duff film. Or perhaps there’s just too many 50 First Date DVDs out there and this is the only way to shift them.
