Now I discover that the censors were protecting our delicate sensibilities from the sight of Dr Manhattan's Nuclear Weapon.
Or, in one case, all four of them.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Dr Manhattan's Nuclear Weapon has MIRVs!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I dunno about Blockbuster, but Netflix usually has the "bonus features" disc available for rent. If I'm particularly interested in stunts, effects, wardrobe or whatever, I'll get that disc along with the movie.
Yes, I'm that person who actually watches the special features. And listens to commentary. Though I finally punked on some of the Return of the King features--overload is overload. I do intend to watch them all someday, though.

move out and draw fire
Special features usually suck (Supernatural disks, I'm looking at you!), but the Criterion version of Seven Samurai has all my love right now. The features range from the worst ever ("Help" : To make a selection, press Enter. To get to the menu, press Menu) to the best ever ("Commentary").

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Aw, I enjoy those! I think MNIE may have the best special features of any TV-on-DVD right now, though.

Always Anti-fascist!
Things from HBO have great commentary.

Roger Ebert has another review of Watchmen, this time after seeing it in IMAX: We're all puppets, Laurie. I'm just a puppet who can see the strings
Embedded in his blog post is a video of Withnail's rendition of Hamlet's soliloquy from Withnail and I, plus other videos on quantum mechanics.

Because books.
But the SPN DVDs have gag reels! And sometimes commentary where Jared and Jensen are funny!

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
What was I watching the other day with "What a piece of work is man..." was that Coraline?

Yep.
