if it's obscure it's usually me firing up soulseek
Godspeed. They say it's easier than ever, but I can't for the life of me find the things anymore.
I just look up obscure stuff on archive.org generally
honestly been hitting up the local video store scarecrow, which has been a lifesaver. lmk if you want me to get you stuff & upload a rip. i usually go on 2-for-1 wednesdays
omg i was just signing up for a rent-by-mail account there! i would love to chip in some money for renting/ripping VHS tapes if you are up for that (since they understandably wont ship tapes) :O
hell yeah, I would love to! I don't have a VCR or capture card at the moment, but it looks like Craigslist has some I could scrounge up! and I've been meaning to get a capture card for a minute anyways
Do you have particular tapes you'd want me to rent and digitize?
also feel free to shoot me an email or discord message if that's easier
I just add search plugins in to qbittorrent and hope for the best. Rutracker has some good stuff too and they’re usually nice enough to not hard code the Russian subtitles lol. I watch a lot of Japanese movies though and have private trackers for that
Oh and honestly I’ve found stuff on the internet archive that wasn’t anywhere else before
if it's obscure enough i've actually had great luck with youtube and internet archive
If it aint on the main sites; soulseek or internet archive. If I really cant find it and especially if its a non-english movie, I recently discovered the Solidarity Cinema Archive; which has hosted movies I could not find anywhere else, like some Apichatpong Wereskathul, Marlon T Riggs, and some incredibly niche australian queer history documentaries
Contact me directly I have so many obscure films on Blu-ray and DVD and am more than willing to provide.
