Wow! Cees

For the record: we have removed Thivanka R. Perera from this forum, not because of childish statements like in the posts above, but because of a totally uncalled for tasteless attack on film critic Roger Ebert (in another thread). And we're not tolerating "jokes" about someone's serious illness.

Mine arrived! (But my BD-player hasn't yet.) Cees

Yes, of course I would have loved seeing Robert Duval and Winona in GF3, but as it is now it's certainly not a bad movie at all. I like it and I'm glad it has been made. The trilogy is a worthy piece of art (and I can't wait until mine arrives and I'll be able to watch it once more). Cees

, etc... etc. Will you please take that discussion elsewhere, if necessary in a thread of his own, but no longer continue it here, in this Godfather BD thread? Thanks for understanding! Cees

That's a very nice article. Of course, RAH is mentioned in a favourable way as well. Cees

Nice article! I also liked the part about Abe Vigoda (follow the link in the article!), who indeed is still very alive. Cees

Mine shipped today. So, I'll have to wait a little more and be happy to read you guys' experiences. Cees

That must be based on a misunderstanding. For anyone having access to the Blu-ray version, there's no need to watch the SD DVD version instead (other than reasons that are totally irrelevant to this discussion). And I say this as someone who owns (and loves) the SD DVD of the new...

Calvin, Please read my posts about the Amazon/UK "steelbook" version. I've had that one for 3 months now and watched it twice - all three of 'em. I admit there was an "adaption curve", but that one was steep. It's really a fantastic experience, youll be drawn in the story with new...

Jesse, I wasn't attacking the site at all. But I must admit that my last memory of the tone over there was from shortly before the "war" ended. And I assumed that tone wouldn't have any use after the format war was over, so if they really changed that, good for them! :emoji_thumbsup...

Is that Finnish site still in operation? Is "red ant" still the most freqently used word to throw at someone they don't agree with? Cees

Once more: I have also seen The Godfather in the cinema theatre, back in 1972. It has easily become one of my absolute favourites and I've also seen several, perhaps almost all, of the VHS and DVD releases. Some of those many times. Of course I haven't watched the new HD set yet, but as it...

No, at least your short time memory doesn't serve you well. The discussion was about the BD resembling the DVD version (which was clearly off, BTW). And certainly several people who had seen the theatrical version immediately recognized how much more true to that the HD version was, compared...

Yes it is. I wonder what's going on there! Cees

Same here! Cees

Don't forget to thank Robert Crawford for pointing it out. Without that, I doubt if we'd all had been able to receive this advantage! Cees

Probably. The UK price is £34.98, which is roughly $66. I ordered the UK version as well, given this "situation", but we cannot be sure if it's not region-coded (and I'm currently in the process of buying a reg-A player, so I would not be able to use a reg-B disc). (I'm going to cancel the...

I DID write an e-mail, and whether it was that or just the system having had a hickup: but the price on my order has now been changed to $61.95. Great price indeed! Cees

Today the price is $87.95, but my pre-order price has not been adjusted to $61.95. So I'll send them an e-mail with a formal complaint. Cees

That's great! And the Pre-Order Price Guarantee secures that price for anyone who pre-ordered! According to the "rules" on their site, you will see the price change on your summary within 24 hours! Cees

And it's a five-disc set. Three films and two with extras. In a metal box. The extras are ... nice, ample, not really "impressive". But that price (£17.98) is certainly a good one for the three movies alone. Cees The Godfather Trilogy: Remastered Collection - Limited Edition Steelbook...

Oscar, They claim it's exclusively sold by them. I think that may be true - for the moment that is. (Take a look, it's an extremely elegant box - tin - and the price is very right too! I think it's an offer, uhm... well, you know, I had to do this, of course.) Cees

Because I couldn't help myself and bought the exclusive SD DVD version off Amazon UK, I can just say: if you love these movies, order it (the BD or else that inexpensive SD set). I've known and watched the movies (especially the two first) for many years and they're in my group of absolutely...
