Some downloads for our long winter/summer evenings?

Okay, time to throw my plea out there. Harare, though a nice place to live, isn't the liveliest place in the world. Culturally speaking, we get the occasional amator theater and the cinema that shows three movies every two months (or so it seems), but that is about it. So we survive and suffer in silence, but our hardship is greatly softened by a supply of movies and series on disk drives... Unfortunately, this supply is starting to run low, so here it is, my request to all of you out there reading this blog...

If you can find any of the following (obtained in a completely legal manner, of course;-)
  • any movies that are worthwhile, though we already have a lot, but mostly dating from before April 2008, specific requests are below;
  • The Wire (a series, haven't watched anything, but heard it was absolutely fabulous, so any episode as from season 1);
  • The 4400: season 1 only, as we have season 2;
  • Smallville: haven't got many, so any season is appreciated...
  • Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles: from season 2 onwards;
  • Babylon 5, everything;
  • Stargate Atlantis,
  • West Wing: everything
  • Grey's Anatomy: everything
  • The Sopranos: everything
  • Tarzan: the series (2003): everything
  • Coupling
  • Black books
  • the it crowd
  • the green wing
  • spooks
  • 15 stories
  • True blood
  • Mad men
  • OZ (Australian)
  • Help (British comedy)
  • Mitchell and Webb look/situation
  • Peep Show
  • Specific movies: Cabaret (with Liza Minelli), the 3 Matrix, Star Trek (excepting n°6 - Nemesis and the latest one), Terminator 1 and 2, the Alien movies, 'Leeches!', SAW V, and of course, Brüno.
  • Belgian movies: Manneken Pis, de Zaak Alzheimer, Aanrijding in Moskou, Ad fundum, Any way the wind blows.
I know, it is a lot. Just see what you or friends already have and can get to us. Just know that we prefer to have all of one series, rather than a couple of episodes of each,...
How to get it to us:
  1. We have occasional visitors, so just drop us a line (I promise I will keep this blog updated and erase any that we have received)
  2. For the really motivated amongst you, by snail mail:
Bruno Deceukelier - Volens Africa - Room G.01 and G.02, the Agriculture House- 1, Adylinn Road - Marlborough - PO Box WGT 390 - Harare, Zimbabwe
