When they first came out DVD's were really something special. Almost all of them had deleted scenes, cast/director commentary, outtakes, all the good stuff.

Now the special feature lists include various subtitle options and "interactive" menus. Well duh! ALL DVD's have interactive menus.

They lowered the prices, which is cool, but they lowered the quality, which is not.

Pete Jackson does it right. The LTR DVD's are LOADED with documentaries, cast interviews, F/X explanations and he actually takes the time to edit deleted scenes BACK into the films!

Oh, and I want outtakes on ALL my movies! lol
 
Ok oops! Ummm, Etoile, I meant to put this on the GB. LOL Could you umm, you know, move it. Sorry about that.

Not that I care if it stays, but I know you like to keep the threads topical. ;)
 
I'll save you starstruck!

Sam and 'master' Frodo. Legolas and Gimli.
Why does no one acknowledge that these guys are lovers?

LOL Thank you Never!

I can buy the Sam and Frodo thing. Total S/D thing goin' on there. But Legoals and Gimli?? lol
 
It's the classic odd couple story.

Come on, I was sitting in the theater and the theme from beauty and the beast kept on playing in my head whenever those two were on screen.
 
*lol*

I once cracked a joke I thought Sam and Frodo should have come out as lovers.

The response I got was straight men can form very close loving friendships with other men too without it having to do anything with sex.

I can't wait to get my hands on the DVD to X~Men 2.

Theres like FOUR HOURS of background stuff that was cut from the movie.

Including lots of Collosus!

So, it went right over their heads that Sam and Frodo weren't "men"?

LOL Ok that was funny.

We just watched Chicago and for the 3 minutes it lasted they should have kept Class in the movie. It added soul and irony and the word "twat".

You can't beat that.

All the other extras (2, comentary with Rob Marshall and the documentary I've seen 10 times when the film was out) suck.

I loved Chicago. I'll probably get the DVD even if it doesn't have a lot of great extra features.

By the way, I have tickets for Cabaret for Labor Day weekend. :p

Who's starring? You can't beat Alan Cumming. He was AMAZING!

Never, he means Hobbits are not of the world of men. They're Hobbits. :)

Like Sunny said, they're hobbits. They are not even humans, and there's some straight boys that still sweat over any thought that they might be a little light in their non-existent loafers.

Jon Secada is the MC, and Melina Kanakaredes plays Sally Bowles.

Actually, hobbits are humans.

You read the Salmerilian didn't you?

Yes, I've read the Silmarillion.

The chief god was working on elves when the mountain god created dwarves. The chief was pissed so he froze all the dwarves so his creation could be the first born. After the first-born sprang to life and the dwarves were reanimated, the gods created the race of men whose lot it was to die. The hobbits are part of the race of men.

OK, fine, but they still don't wear loafers.
 
I guess I need to get with the times and come out of the iceage. Shit the first time I used a DVD was a couple of weeks ago. Man I have missed a lot being a hermit.
