Why do I even bother to buy DVD's?

[K]

I buy Spiderman, 2 Disc Edition, they release a three disc edition.

I buy Daredevil, they release a two disc edition.

I buy Shawshank Redemption, they release a three disc edition.

I buy Dr. Strangelove, they release a two disc edition

I hate the universe.

[Clawson]

Ya kind of like me with the Lord of the Rings triology. I know there is going to be Special Editions but I always buy the non-special ones.

[stokeriño]

I only have Dr. Strangelove on video, so that 2 disc edition sounds like a pretty sweet idea.

Meh, I'm not sure I could be bothered with a 3 disc edition of the Shawshank Redemption. My single disc is enough for me.

...But yes, I know the feeling.

[Herr Matzat]

if you read some DVD newspages you always know if such stuff is comming (thats why i havent bought anny kill bill yet) so i don´t mind that much, aslo the 3ed disk of the spider-man set is also soled seperatly (very good thing if you ask me) even if you miss the cool senytipe and such

[Xand]

I'm like that with the Coupling DVD's...

...3-Disc Shawshank Redemption? What's on that?

[zero]

I never buy DVDs unless they look absolutely loaded with extras. Then I won't mind so much if they double dip. If you're a big DVD fanatic, in the next coming years, don't expect to buy any DVD when they're first released because nowadays they're always holding off for the special edition. It really wouldn't be so bad if they made the bare bones disc cheap.

[Cactus Drags]

Trade them in, or sell on ebay.

[tristy]

The only DVDs I buy now are TV Show Box-Sets.

I'm waiting for Season Four of Angel

That's nothing. By the end of 2005, companies plan to release another version of DVD, which will, of course, require a new player to play them. It's called HD DVD, and they are expected to be on the market by the end of '05. Source.

It will flop. DVD geeks will buy them, but your average Joe finally put the VCR down and bought a DVD player. It's too soon.

I may begin to do that. I'm growing tired of getting the "Mega Special Edition" only for the "Ultimate Special Edition" to be released 2 years later.

[Hellfire]

i dont see the point of getting the more expensive special edition, when it just has some shitty extras, that werent in the movie because it wasnt needed. I never watch any of the extras, so i couldnt give a shit about paying 10 bucks less for the regular edition, rather than the SUPER MEGA ULTRA EDITION

[Lowerdeck]

I'd rather just have the regular movie by itself, and cheaper. I don't need the special features, I find them worthless too.

[MalaCloudy Black]

The only special features I've ever watched on a DVD were the commentaries, and that was just on the ATHF: Volume 2 DVD >_>..

[Enter Blue Guy]

There are only a few DVD's I bothered to go the extra mile and purchase the latest special edtion two disc deal or whatever you folks want to call it. That was Pulp Fiction, Teminator 2, Enter The Dragon, and a couple more that I can't think of because I've been up for a total of 3 minutes so my brain isn't totally functioning yet.

[Xand]

I'm definately getting that!

It's Robster's birthday gift...

[K]

Oh good, now there's a three disc version of Pirates of the Caribbean. There's a totally unexpected twist. Fuck this.

Studios: DVD Piracy is bad, if you pirate DVD's you are a communist. Hitler pirated DVD's, prove he didn't. If you don't buy our DVD's we're gonna leave some flaming dog-doo on your porch.

Me: Ok, I see your point. Piracy is bad. I'm gonna go to the store and buy some DVD's.

*One hour later our hero returns with some DVD's*

Studio: Bwahahah Sucker! Those were only the special editions! Next week we're releasing the DEFINITIVE VERSIONS! YOU SHOULD HAVE WAITED. Stalin only bought the Special Editions! You don't want to be like Stalin do you?

[Krazy_K]

I did not know Hitler had a DVD player.

*Hitler is watching a pirated Pirates of the Caribbean

Hitler: This movie is shite, lets go gas some poeple.

See, Pirates of the Caribbean turns people bad.
