Agent Carter and Agents of SHIELD season 2

[edit]

Neither of these two shows are available to Canadian consumers, so far as I can tell. Apparently, because they were released as Amazon.com exclusives they were not packaged with French labels/subtitles, rendering them unfit for selling commercially in Canada. Amazon.ca simply says they're unavailable. First, is my understanding correct? Second, other than enduring Amazon's international shipping fees (plus duty), is there any legal way for me as a Canadian to get a physical hard copy of these shows? 99.235.223.170 (talk) 20:07, 21 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Drive over the border and buy them in the U.S.? Since Americans do this for their prescription drugs, maybe its an option for Canadians who want to get DVDs? --Jayron32 02:33, 22 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
They're exclusive to Amazon.com - are there brick and mortar stores of that to visit? 99.235.223.170 (talk) 03:18, 22 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In the UK, it is possible to get an amazon delivery to certain stores or package lockers, which you can then pick up later. Assuming the same is true in the US, and the cost for you to get to a handy border town is less than international shipping, then that might be an option.

How were the scenes shot when Arnold Schwarzenegger punched horses and camels?

With a camera. If you're asking how they were faked, the answer is that they weren't. The Humane Society was not very pleased - however, the animals did get a bit of revenge: Arnold really did get savaged by the dogs near the beginning of the first film. Some links in our article to further info. 99.235.223.170 (talk) 03:29, 22 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
