Well, there comes a time in every man's life when they put away the toys (Playstation 2) and get the real toys. I am slowly building towards a HT but first need to get a good DVD player. I can't believe I went all of these years without one. What should I look for? Both video and...
Well, I picked up the Frighteners director's cut and am about 2/3rds the way through the documentary. It's fabulous and very thorough. On par with many of the LOTR documentaries in terms of content. And just when I think "they should have this person in it" - wham! There they are! The editing in...
Thanks guys. What about the director's cut vs. the theatrical cut? What scenes are in this cut - all the ones that mentioned on horrordvd.com in this cut?
After 7 pages, I'm still not sure what's on the Region 1 disc! As far as I can tell it is: The director's cut of the movie (123 minutes vs 110 theatrical) - what is in that cut? Over at horrordvd.com they mention over 15 deleted scenes. Are these on the R1 disc? The four hour...
Hi there. I've been contemplating replacing my 12 year old JVC VCR with either the Sony D550P or JVC HRXV544U - I was originally considering the Sony D350P but haven't read very favorable reviews. Can someone recommend a reliable quality combination machine? Thanks in advance, Scott
As a film student (and movie fan), one of the biggest draws of laserdisc for me was the commentary track and extra features. However, since I couldn't afford LD back then, I've whole-heartedly embraced it since DVD came out. Since I missed out on LD, I made myself a promise to only buy the...
Bunny Hugged, The Dover Boys, I love to Singa, What's Opera Doc, The Great Piggy Bank Robbery, Bear for Punishment and Kitty Cornered? Some awesome stuff on this one, much better than volume one IMHO. Here's to hoping that Volume 3 has "Ali-Baba Bunny", "It's Hummer Time", "To...
Dawn Of The Dead Best Buy DVD mini-review This disc is only available through Best Buy retailers and e-tailers. Look for blue and white stickers that read: "Exclusive Bonus Disc featuring "Mockumentary": Undead and Loving It!, Drawing The Dead and Storyboard Comparisons. *While Supplies...
The bonus disc comes in a white envelope packed within the dvd case. I haven't had time to watch it yet, but according to the packaging, the disc contains a 15 minute parody of Night of the Living Dead, (not "Night of the Living Bread") zombie concept art and some storyboard to movie...
I didn't have as much as a nightmare as you did, but I did have to holler a bit to get information about the bonus disc. I walked into Best Buy on Tuesday and saw a sign that said "Free Bonus Disc" with purchase. I grabbed a WS copy off the floor display but before I went to the checkout...
They did. Here's the TC http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=MCA023861 and here's the DC http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com/dvd.cfm?itemID=MCA025819 I bought the DC myself, not for the gore, but for the extra bonus materials. The TC is missing the featurettes: RAISING THE...
I currently have... Please don't laugh... A Playstation 2. (I know, pathetic.) But am interested in trading up. I don't need all regions and I'm cheap. Suggestions?
Because I never got into LD (too expensive for me at the time) I made myself a promise that I would only get the "top of the line" DVDs when they came out. So when I found out there were different versions of DVDs (Thank god for all those Evil Dead II and Night of the Living Deads; they taught...
Ok, maybe hate is too stong a word, but does anyone own a DVD they really like regardless of the movie? My choice would have to be the Alien Quintology version of Alien 3. Hated the theatrical release, but really like the documentaries and test-version on the dvd set. How about you??
My three year old daughter is really getting into Star Wars. (Or "Dunh-Dunh" as she calls it (hum the first two notes of the Imperial March and you'll know how to pronounce it) We've watched A New Hope twice now it's been a blast seeing her get excited about it. According to my wife, she...
As a fan of time-travel movies, this has been high on my "must rent" list. Now with all the talk of the multiple endings (multiple endings for a time-travel movie! Who have thunk it? ;) )I'm definately intrigued to check this out. I'm familiar with the plot due to reading several spoiler...
Just for sheer presentation, wealth of extra materials or quality of commentary... Fight Club: Two Disc set Boogie Nights: Two Disc set Toy Story 1 & 2: Ultimate Toy Box Indiana Jones: Trilogy boxed set Back to the Future: Trilogy boxed set Clerks: Animated Series LOTR: EE editions...
I'm been lusting after the Critereon version of Time Bandits for a while now, but now comes the Anchor Bay version. What's the differences between the two? Which one is recommended? Thanks in advance!
Dave, I don't remember shot for shot the details of the autopsy, but I do remember it being pretty graphic - I distinctly remember commenting to a friend of mine how wrong it was to see how graphic the Newt autopsy was particularly after all the stuff the kid had to go through in Aliens...
I don't know if any of this helps but... I saw the "preview" of Alien 3 in Long Beach, CA several months (I want to say at least 5 months) before the movie was finished - the print I saw had several effects not complete (they were marked with "Insert Effect Here" cards) and many of the matte...
I've been wanting to get the Criterion version of Time Bandits for awhile, but now I learn that Anchor Bay is going to be doing one. Which one should I get and what's the difference? Thanks in advance.
