COLLECTOR'S EDITION DVD Release

[Penthesilea]

Hey Euros and Australians: same here.  Our sunny Colorado casa has a full guest bath, nice yard and a big-screen TV & nice speakers for Mountain viewing.  And we can drive you around the lovely, similar terrain we have here or in nearby Wyoming. 

(And maybe later you can host us or at least give us pointers when we visit your cool country . . .)


Hey Ellemeno:  loved your 'armpit' crack. I needed that belly laugh!

All Europeans and Australians are warmly invited to Seattle to view the 2 disc set in its entirety on January 24th, 2006.  We have one guest bed, two couches, floor space for sleeping bags, and a back yard for puptents.

Awww, Celeste and Laura, that's sweet. I second Fabienne: if only...
Would it be ok if the puptent I'd bring along would not smell like cat piss or worse  ?

Can you imagine in Germany the regular DVD came out not earlier than last week? Thank God the UK was only a few weeks behind the US. So I ordered it from there, since there was no way I could stand it.

nope. not gonna do it. i'm a purist when it comes to this. what ever the director puts out at the release is the original film. everything else is just a ploy to make more money.





just kidding. I'll at least Netflix it, if I don't buy it.

Ya had me goin' there for a minute star.

Honestly though, to some point I agree.  I think the movie as it is is a masterpiece.  Not a thing needs to be added or detracted.  I'm interested in seeing some extras, but what do we know about the extras?  I don't particularly care about the 'hippie scene', I'm interested more in scenes of the two of them together or more intimacy, but I know such scenes don't exist.  There is probably a few more minutes in the closet scene at the Twist's and maybe a scene at Jack's grave.

I'm all for the commentary if it's a good one.

What else do you think?

I love watching DVD commentaries, even for movies I only kind of like.  I've learned most of what I know about film-making that way.

I've heard Ang has never done a DVD commentary, but there are so many people I would be very happy to hear too.  Shoot - even some of our knowledgeable fellow Brokies.

Or Pierre.  That would be cool.

There's a commentary made by Ang Lee and James Shamus on the Sense and Sensibility DVD. They are always going on about 'the sheep'. Apparently they had a lot of trouble shooting the 'sheep' scenes' in that movie (luckily there weren't many), which made Ang Lee decide never to do a film with sheep again!   
Thank God, he changed his mind about that.



The commentary on the dvd is nice, he does talk about how they did certain scenes and why.

Thank God, indeed!

Sounds like an opportunity for a west coast party, eh, Elle?

Cuz everyone knows that there ain't no party like a west coast party cuz a west coast party don't stop...

I have an extra room-with a floor, no bed (yet) and a beautiful town to see. Reservations are on a first-come, first-served basis.

I'm embarrassed to admit I haven't seen it.
