SPEC10 Viewing Pre-Empted!!!

  As you all may recall , back when it originally aired, I was quite a fan of the Erika Toda/Ryo Kase Supernatural thriller SPEC, the high-charged sequel to the cool Nakatani Miki / Atsuro Watabe drama KEIZOKU, so when I came upon the new movie sequel SPEC10, I downloaded it with anticipation and planned my evening around watching it!!
  Well, not even one minute into the movie (as the show recapped what had gone on before), and I was already like, "Whoa, I don't remember THAT! Whoa! I don't remember THAT either!"  At first it crossed my mind that maybe these "flashbacks" were actually new scenes to set-up the movie storyline, but after watching 15 minutes of the movie, it was clear that I was missing something. 
  A thought occurred to me: could there have been ANOTHER movie that had come out BEFORE SPEC10? I didn't see any listed on Erika Toda's wiki file, but typing in Keizoku SPEC SP, and sure enough, what came up was a special called "Keizoku SPEC~SHOU". There was a whole 'nother SPEC show I had to get BEFORE I could continue watching SPEC10!
   So sadly, my night was spend NOT watching the new movie, but instead trying to locate that first Special! I'm currently in the process of acquiring it, so once that happens, it will be a KEIZOKU SPEC Film festival at my house!!!
