Got: King Kong Best Buy tin Wizard of Oz 3-disc some public domain budget horror release(as a stocking stuffer) gave: none, everyone knows me as "the dvd guy" so I tried to break out of my stereotype.

Couldn't agree more. But, like many others have said, I still really like this movie. Some of it was needless, but its still a thrilling movie. BTW, I also missed that Kong-tongue-ripping moment.

All this talk and the high praise given it in the review made me plunk down yet more movie-money today. Darn, I had just gotten back from Best Buy (picked up Sin City Extended Edition and GWTW for $17(!)) and figured I had bought enough for this week... -thanks for reminding me about Amazon's...

In the movie Gattaca, Jude Law uses the F-bomb twice. because there's really no other objectionable content, it skated with a PG. Along this bizarre double standard (or non-standard): here's a little anecdote In the commentary for "Bring it On" (go ahead, laugh) the director talks about a...

I thought that the whole premise of the "Rewind collection" was to sell the 'classic' live action shows of the early and mid-90s? The nicktoons (Rocko, Doug, Rugrats) would then not really fit into this collection. I still hope those get released, especially Rocko. Anyway, why would they...

I think, besides how obviously egomaniacal it looks (though i would like to believe Cameron didn't ask to be on the cover), it just looks stupid, as if they think people wouldn't read the back of the box. Its trying to say "hey, we also put BEHIND THE SCENES FEATURES in the set". As if James...

I think you mean green tint. But I'm a big proponent of the Ultimate Matrix set. I'm an extras nut and the additional discs (Burly Man Chronicles and Roots of the Matrix) are great additions to the Revisited discs. The additional commentaries (especially the philosophers track) is also very...

I had a feeling something like this was happening. Have you seen the Cinderella ads promoting the Final Four? I can't stand how Disney's DVDs can be SO good at presenting informative extras on such classic feature films, and at the same time being the worst of corporate tie-in stupidity.

Attack of the giant head! Please WB, get someone to change that cover before this ships! Good bunch of extras, including stuff from the History channel and other sources (IMO) beats bland featurettes for historical information.

What is up with the Disney Store recently? There's another person who had a similar customer service issue with them who posted. I would expect that the Disney store would have better customer service (and a far more knowledgable staff) than Wal-mart or Best Buy.

Brandon, well said. I actually have a similar BTTF cursing experience from when i was little. It was one of the first movies with "strong language" that i was allowed to watch. My parents never told me what words were bad, so i just kind of absorbed the whole thing. But I learned pretty quickly...

I've given up on theaters entirely. the whole experience has become so unappealing that I'd rather just wait 4-6 months to see it at home. At least then if a cell phone does go off, its for me, and I can pause the movie. :) I think that it would not be out of the realm of possibility to have...

One of the previous posters said that perhaps the fact that the Tick was a "smart animated saturday cartoon" would hurt its marketability? I think that if the Tick came out on DVD, you'd see a real resurgence in its popularity. I mean, there's already a seriuos fan base that would buy these...

Killer discs. Glad I picked it up, many many thanks for the reccomendations and review! Yet another release where the quality extras convinced me to buy it. Very happy to have the groundbreaking "Old Mill" included on the disc. I have to say, after seeing this movie for the first time in...

Any change to the original game plot will probably only help translate it to screen. The Doom games were thin on plot to begin with, so having more characters or more of a plot will help it. However, i also worry that they'll lose part of what made the game so appealing- which seems to happen...

Sounds like this could be the birth of certain "cell free" (like smoke free) areas. I don't particularly have a problem with it, and I can't imagine most of the movie going public would either. Personally, i'd rather have the theater deal with it rather than "vigilante" patrons. You never know...

Not to sound like an admin, but this one should be in the TV Shows section.

I held off buying this disk in the hopes that the corrected DVDs would go into "circulation." Either this movie doesn't move that many units (possible) or the retailers and company don't really care that there are incorrectly subtitled discs. Notice, they didn't recall or anything, they're just...

surprised no one else has mentioned KIDS yet.

Perhaps even more ominous... from the article: It could be used to keep track of what we watch, not just if its a legit copy. With the increased network capabilities, it could crash your region free player, or refuse to play on a DVD player that does not encorporate Macrovision technology...

With all those issues in the existing DVD (issues that would cripple sales of a "major" dvd release), it sounds like they have to revisit this. Here's hoping!

WOW. I like that they're going ahead with the "Rewind collectiong" it gives people like me something to hope for down the line. While I'm not going to pick up Clarissa, i know plenty of people who will, and I'll look forward to future "Rewind" releases.

Indeed, there is a legal right that these parties have, to be compensated for their original works when they are used in conjunction with other media. You can try to petition people to take a smaller cut, but you can't really make them. Personally, i'm not very worried about it, while it has...

Count me in for actually thinking this is a cool movie. I am a huge fan of The Matrix, but I liked this movie a lot for what it brought (though its very obviously referencing many films and books before it). The Gun Kata was a cool invention, and the entire production had the right atmosphere...

Very cool. I saw an ad for this featuring the RZA of the Wu-Tang Clan. I was skeptical about it then (despite Wu-Tang's love of kung fu), but now I'll definitely look out for this.

Not to get too speculative, but since this movie is actually a Fleming novel, does that leave the possibility of having it set in the 60s (as it was in the book)? I know that Bond has always been a contemporary figure, but if people understood that this was "straight from the source" (the...

Why shouldn't you get a special mark for killing a queen? hypotheticals aside, I actually had some fun with this movie. Its more dependant on your genuine enthusiasm for the monsters on display in this film. Everyone seems to agree that the when it really was Alien vs. Predator action (not...

excellent, i'll finally buy this film!:emoji_thumbsup: For those who don't want to RTFA, you can see on the spine of the DVD case whether it has the proper subtitles. Look on the spine for the marking "V4" if its there, then its got the real subtitles.

While it may be questionable as to its "respect to the material" its a pretty neat achievement of technology. Also, Gene Kelly was such a strong dancer that its quite possible (had he wanted to) that he could have actually performed it. I also like the remix of the song. Not at all traditional...

Hi, being a fairly young member of this forum, I'm getting to that point where i need to find a career. I count film and DVD in particular as being something that really has captivated me. I was wondering how one gets into DVD production, and what skills people are looking for. I'm not...
