Schindler's List on DVD

Re: Schindler's List on DVD

LOL

Same here. I think that is one of the coolest films (Underated!). perfect type of film for a DvX, huh? :D

Kathy Bates is one of my favorite actresses (face it, she can act) and James Caan is, well, Sonny! It was good to see him back in action with Misery.

Thats kind of what we do I guess. Sit around in a perpetual daydream. Or is that the lithium?
 
Re: Schindler's List on DVD

New topic: greatest overall year for movies.

Obviously, lots of ways you can look at it -- but for sheer volume of, if not classics, at least very, very memoriable, I say 1982.

Hard to beat 1939 in a lot of ways, but there were just so MANY in '82 . . .
 
Re: Schindler's List on DVD

1982

Hmmmmmm... I was 12. Let me think here. Okay, I did a search using the magic of the IMDB on 1982. I am only listing films that IMHO think are great. This is great for me. Great fits many levels. No need to explain. Here are the films of 1982 that I, to this day, still think kick ass. (In no particualr order!)

Poltergeist
Porky's
48 Hrs.
Blade Runner
E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial
The Thing
First Blood
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Tron
Missing
Boot, Das
 
Re: Schindler's List on DVD

How very handy for "Schindlers List" to hit DVD and catch the "Passion" wave,so to speak.Whether coincidence or not,lets face it,the powers that be could have released "SL" on DVD years ago or,even last year as a Tenth Anniversary Edition.I almost hate to sound cynical but,"tie-ins",even one as indirect as this one are just good Hollywood business.Think about it-If one movie is out in theatres and some other companies have something that fits that movie well,they'll make a point ot releasing/re-releasing it.It's cross promotion and,the best part is,you don't even have to belong to the same club to play the game.When "Independence Day" hit theatres,all of a sudden,"War of the Worlds" and "The Day the Earth Stood Still" made sudden comebacks,at least at Sams Club.In the wake of "The Passion...." here comes "Judas" on TV and "Jesus of Nazareth" on DVD.

I'm not knocking this practice,per se,but even Spielberg is not immune to catching a plum when it falls off the tree.....
 
Re: Schindler's List on DVD

I understand, from a filmmakers perspective, that this DVD has no Special Features (Commentary, Behind the Scenes etc)

Why are Spielbergs films some of the lamest DVD's Spec Features released?
 
Re: Schindler's List on DVD

The Film is Mine! I bought the cheapy version, but I'm going to get the box set and give the copy I just got away. I need more bonus material!!
 
Re: Schindler's List on DVD

What examples, John? Jurassic Park and Jaws are full of goodies. The features disc on the Indy boxed set is fairly cool. Minority Report was fairly loaded.
 
Re: Schindler's List on DVD

You know what? You are right. I have the JAWS DVD but it does not have commentary from Steven!

Some reak kick ass commentaries I have are:

Three Kings
Behind Enemy Lines
Aliens
Black Hawk Down
The Patriot

I guess what I meant was, I like the DVD's that have techincal junkie extras such as Directors and DP commentary, behind the scenes stuff, etc etc.
