I agree with Colin's assessment. I have the R2 enhanced version which came out a couple of years ago and while it's not a SE (no commentary or doc) it seems they've used the same transfer. The differences between the SE and the original is exactly how I felt when I first viewed my R2 version i.e...
If I remember right the R2 version has DTS and it's on one disc (this is the theatrical cut not the extended of course). I haven't decided whether to upgrade on this new SE as I have the DD one disc version. I don't think the extended cut, which I used to have on widescreen VHS, is worth the...
I've bought quite a few DVD's from Hollywood & BB with no problems. Another good place to check is the local pawn shop. I bought 6 DVD's yesterday for $7.50 each, 3 of them SE's with DTS. The advantage with pawn shops is the discs have usually only had one owner as opposed to rental stores which...
Yeah I really read the script. I wasn't trying to be negative. I did say at the end of my post how nice it was of WB to do this. I guess when somebody says they won't do something I want to know why. I suppose it is kind of redundant because any answer they give wouldn't satisfy me anyway. DTS...
Well I read the transcript for the WB chat and not much there that interested me. The only film mentioned that I want is Blade Runner and all we got was the usual "stay tuned". Stay tuned! god I've been tuned for so long my antennas starting to rust. Get on with it will ya!!;) Oh and one...
Well I'm used to watching the show in glorious HiDef so even a DVD version is going to be a step down. Besides I'm not sure I would want to watch them over and over anyway. It's a great show but I find rewatching hour long shows(40 mins w/o commercials) a bit too much. It's a pity they don't...
Aaron I had a quick look at the WM9 version and it didn't look all that impressive to me (watching it on my PC) in fact it didn't look any different to any other DVD. The BMW short films on disc on loked a lot better. I don't know how it will look played onto a TV screen though. I might check it...
Well despite my earlier reservations about this DVD I saw it at CC for $14 so I thought "what the hell". It was pretty much to my expectations i.e the recollections of the FB's themselves and the archive clips (of which there were far too few) were nice to watch but the "new" versions of classic...
Whats shocked me most about this movie is that for such a short movie it has 10 minutes and 40 seconds of end credits. Jeez they're almost as long as the movie itself!
Listens to Van Morrison but doesn't know "Moondance"! umm I don't know quite what to think of that. Have you seen "An American Werewolf In London"? It has a very interesting scene accompanying that song.
So what's the moral of this story? Is it "Don't stand close to a cliff-edge while having your picture taken" or "Don't move to Oregon" or "Don't get married". I'm confused.
I think all films shown in HD whether it be HBO, Showtime or networks, look pretty awesome. Unless they're the downrezzed versions then they're not as good. I was watching a bit of "Silence of The Lambs" last night, DAMN! I thought the new DVD looked good! I did notice it still had some of the...
