does anybody else remember the movie time bandits from when we were kids? it's about some kid that joins a band of time-traveling little people. i'm debating whether or not to buy the dvd... for nostalgia's sake. [although, i did this a couple years ago with the neverending story dvd-- which turned out to be so horribly cheezy.] they made a criterion collection version of time bandits though-- which means it can't be too bad. other films that received this treatment include some of my favorites: in the mood for love, rushmore, royal tenenbaums...

i've also been itching to buy leon: the professional (which i've never seen).
