Matt,
what controversy? I didn't know there was a controversy.
Wesley: We're going to bring Angelus in alive. Connor: No we're not. Gunn: I thought you said capturing him wasn't an option. Wesley: Changed my mind. Connor: Change it back.

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.

The trailers make it look as if Julia Roberts and Bradley Cooper are a couple, but it's Cooper and Eric Dane who are together.

Because books.

Wow, I had no clue.
I have zero interest in that movie, except now I would very much like to see Eric Dane and Bradley Cooper kissing.

Wow... I'm kind of hating 20th Century Fox right now. I just found out they removed the special features from dvds for rental places like Netflix and Blockbuster. So we couldn't see the deleted scenes and alternate opening from Whip It, and there's nothing except previews on Jennifer's Body. So lame, Fox!

Really?! Wow. The extras on the dvds are sometimes the only reason that I want to rent the dvd rather than just stream. Guess I won't consider that anymore.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I don't think they're the only studio, since I had the same thing happen with Assassination of Jesse James, a WB release.

I guess they need some to give us some reason to buy rather than rent. If I am too impatient for a dvd release, I will usually Amazon unbox it and watch on the Roku. I did that with Mad Men season 3 and also with last season of 30 Rock. In both of those cases, I knew I'd also be buying the dvds when they came out, just for the commentary.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Aargh. But I totally don't rent instead of buying. Is that popular? If buying is the only way to get a commentary or extra feature, I probably just won't get it. Buying is a whole different level of affection for a movie or TV show.
But I'm guessing not everyone has the same approach to archival.

Oh I am with you, in general, ita. There are extremely few dvds that I want to own; Mad Men and 30 Rock are among the exceptions. It's infuriating that the dvd extras aren't being included on the rentals.
