I've walked out of the theater on two movies in my life - Caligua, for being too gross, and Gump, for being too boring.

I wonder if this will have chapter breaks. I remember on the LaserDisc there weren't any because Zemeckis didn't want there to be any. I know the DVD had them but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Meh.



I'm all Gumped out. I think we wore out our VHS years ago. I'm over it.


PASS.

What's this Sapphire series bullshit they're marketing? Is it like their "Platinum Series" they do in Australia with DVDs where the disc is identical to the first release and they just change the cover insert?

Ahhh...the film i want most on Blu, finally, because that DVD hasn't looked good since I had a 19" CRT

How did I not see THAT cover-art coming?

[Solo 88]

[tibbydriver]

Well it's pretty much the logo for the film... I don't see why they'd change it .

I agree.

I also have a problem paying for Blu-rays of films that are on TV often enough. The problem is not so much that I don't think the extra PQ and AQ are worth paying for (I do, actually) but that I know if I suggest to the wife that we stick on Forrest Gump, she'd rather watch a new episode of a TV show.

If the film actually comes on terrestrial TV though, we might well end up watching it!

I think I remember hearing somewhere that Chevy Chase was the one chosen for Forest Gump originally.
