Many differences to the novel set this film apart from the novel, as the filmmakers take liberties to the script, oftentimes rewriting whole dialogues to fit the storytelling. This movie is not the book. Nevertheless, we don't go to watch a movie because we want to "see" the novel that it is...
Warlock (Julian Sands) is an average time travel movie, another "fish out of water" story. Warlock II (Julian Sands) is about druids. A lot of these movies are "must-see" especially if you're a child of the '80s! ;)
OK, while I hated Alexander at the cinema, and therefore would not buy a Limited Edition of this, I loved Hulk at the cinema and I bought the Limited Edition of Hulk. I haven't seen Phantom of the Opera (2004), but it seems that some people on here like it. There's a Chinese Limited Edition...
The Korean R0 release of Rebecca, which happens to be a Criterion port, is available cheaply, but it's missing the second disc. I've got it, and it's marvelous. Good quality disc manufacture.
Yeah, screw the extras on this set... There's nothing wrong with the previous release. ;) I'll wait for a DTS version of the Extended Cut without the extras.
The updated artwork for the Anniversary DVD kind of looks the same as the original, only it became a digital Photoshopped image, rather than the postery, painted original artwork as above. At least, the Jaws font looks exactly the same.
The anniversary release for R1 is called 'Deluxe Edition'. DVDcompare will list it as DE. On the back of the case, there is a small Superbit logo, so it's really a 'Superbit Deluxe Edition', because a standard Superbit edition doesn't include a bonus disc.
The Korean DTS boxset does feature the supplements: - Cast & Crew - Trivia Game - Production Note - Play Teaser - The Film Sylvester Stallone - The Rocky Early Years - Play Documentary - First Blood: "A Look Back" - Play Trailer - Commentary Track - With George Cosmomatos Director
