So, which RESERVOIR DOGS cover did you get? (1 Viewer)

[Gabe D]

Mr. Pink

 

[Brook K]

Mr. White
I tried to cancel but CDNow sent it anyway so I figured I might as well keep it. It's only money

 

[DennisP]

Mr. Brown for me. Wanted the autograph.

 

[Rob Tomlin]

I got Mr. Orange.
...and I've never seen the original DVD transfer so I can't compare.

I don't really need a comparison. Just an opinion of this DVD on it's own would suffice!

 

[Jan H]

The transfer is passable, if not state-of-the-art. What makes the DVD worth buying at around $16 is the extra features. They are funny and informative, and there's a whole lot of 'em.

 

[Michael Ballack]

Where did you get your information onMr. Pink being arrested? I figured that he must have been killed when I heard the gunshots. Plus it's supposed to be a Greek tragedy. Everyone dies.

 

[Alex Spindler]

Listen carefully
There are distant gunshots, and then the police cars get closer. There are no more gunshots after this. Then the cops start yelling "drop your weapon!" and "get down" type messages.

 

[DAN NEIR]

Mr. Blonde

mr brown is autographed???????

 

[JohnRice]

I thought about Mr. Brown but didn't even see any. I ended up getting Mr. Blonde.

I have both discs, but haven't watched the SE yet. My gut feeling is that the outdoor scenes are supposed to be washed out.

I think all Artisan did was rehash the old transfer. I looks the same to me.

 

[Andrew_Sch]

Mr. Pink...I hadn't seen the movie, so I just chose my favorite actor.

In the slipcover it says, in so many words, that Mr. Pink is the only one who survives the ordeal, though he doesn't escape justice.

 

[Leila Dougan]

Mr. Pink cause, well, I thought it was cool. If they had Mr. Brown I may have gotten it but that's ok.

 

[Rob Tomlin]

I think all Artisan did was rehash the old transfer. I looks the same to me.

That's interesting. That's definitely the first time that I have heard that statement. Most reviews say the color scheme is completely different than the original release. Also, the framing is apparently quite different as well. Did you notice any difference in the framing? I imagine a direct side by side comparison would be needed to really notice something like that.

 

[Andrew_Sch]

I thinkt he complaint about the framing was only in the opening credits where they're walking along the brick wall. Apparently the earlier release had it boxed in from the side as well, whereas the SE fills the complete 2.35 frame.

I bought Mr.Pink
It was the one on the shelf. As far as the transfer in some scenes it is washed out but in others it is great. An overall 3.5 out of 5 . Very watch able. I didn't see the first release. But on 106" front projection it is enjoyable.
All transfers tend to differ but you can tell they put alot of work into this release. John

 

[Travis Olson]

Rob, you'll have to forgive me as I hadn't watched the original release in a while. The framing on the SE is definitely better, but there is too much contrast.
I took a couple of captures of both releases.
New

Old

 

[BarryS]

I got Mr. White because Harvey Keitel is just so damn cool.

 

[Marty Lockstead]

Mr. Brown because he is a limited edition.
Mitty,
The Mr. White cover is available in Canada by the way, if no one has answered that question for you yet.

 

[Dome Vongvises]

Mr. Pink
- I might even get the Brown cover for collectability's sake. BTW, does anybody notice that the new transfer doesn't do a good job with blacks? Everything has a dark gray look to it instead.
