RE: Was it just me or is Goldmember just not funny?

It`s you.

The Doors (Oliver Stone) - R1 or R2?

I have heard that the picture on the R1 is 2:35:1 non-anamorphic, very soft, but has a 40 minute documentary and deleted scenes.

R2, apparently, is 1:85:1 anamorphic, but the documentary and deleted scenes are nowhere to be found.

Help!

RE: Blackadder`s Christmas Carol - cut.

I`m still not too sure. Anytime I`ve seen it on BBC2 or UKGold, the line has always been in it.

Blackadder`s Christmas Carol - cut.

Has anyone else noticed that the BBC have cut out the "They wanna see us nail up the dog" joke? Which I loved.

RE: Trainspotting-Special Edition

Canadian R1 has been partially dubbed.

Maybe if Porno (the sequel) is bought by Polygram, a special edition will be on the cards. I know there is about 25 deleted scenes (including 14 which were included in a Special Edition video which had to be withdrawn) and at least an hour long documentary.

RE: What`s been cut in The Dead Pool (1988)?

Private joke between me and dee10.

But can anyone say what`s been cut? e.g violence trimmed.

What`s been cut in The Dead Pool (1988)?

I`ve heard that the R2 has been cut by 12 seconds, while R1 is uncut. But can anyone tell me what has been cut exactly?

RE: ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA Region 1 released on 20th August

According to several sources, Leone shot it in 4:3 because of the demands of the video market (or something like that)

Men In Black II

Personally, I thought this was alright, but what did everyone else think?

Anyone having problems with R0 version of Once Upon A Time In America?

I recieved mine in the post this morning, courtesty of Play.com. However, it will not run on my DVD player or PC DVD player. After trying it at a friends, it ran, but struggled.

Please help.

Is DVD Concept worthwhile?

I`ve had a glance at the site and I`ve seen a few that are cheaper than Play, but I need to know: is it safe and is delivery good?

Any help appreciated.

RE: How Many DVD`s Have YOU got???

I started last year and currently own 50 DVD`s, although I have borrowed 25 to watch and return.

What a wonderful format.

RE: Whats the last DVD everyone bought?

Sudden Impact (1983) £9.99

The best sequel to Dirty Harry (1971)

Hugely underrated and a vast improvement on Magnum Force (1973) and The Enforcer (1976)

What DVD distributors guarantee quality in picture and sound?

Personally, I feel Momentum are the best, but I would like to hear other responses.

Batman(1989) Special Edition

Any more word on this, as news has dried up and I`m looking foreward to it.

RE: She`s all that Soundtrack

As far as I can tell, there was never one released.

RE: The Fisher King

If you go to Future Entertainment, they are selling it for (roughly) £9.99

Mad Max- R1 or R2

Since Play are selling the R2 release for £7.99, it had crossed my mind to buy it, but they (Play) are selling the R1 Special Edition for £13.99. I`m not really concerned with extras, just the film.

Can anyone help?

RE: Any version of The Terminator with the mono soundtrack?

Oh..... thank you

Any version of The Terminator with the mono soundtrack?

I don`t like the bloody 5.1 mix. The firing doesn`t sound right. Any releases with the mono soundtrack?

The General (1998) R1

Does anyone know if this classic gangster film`s R1 release is worth buying?
