Also, Good Times Season 4 and Little House on the Prairie Season 7.

What the hell happen to Yahoo Serious anyway? :lol

I was all set on buying DD: Director's Cut until I read the IGN review.

First of all, they took out The Killing Moon from the intro. Fuck that.

Second, it seems as if they dumbed down the movie by adding a bunch of explanatory scenes.

I'll probably rent it, and if I don't mind the new stuff, I'll pick it up.

Prebought at suncoast! CANT WAIT!

Prebought at suncoast! CANT WAIT!

How much is it at Suncoast? Bestbuy.com has it for 39.99, Amazon for 38, but I can't trust them to not fuck everything up in shipping(The first two season sets were all raped to hell, with two of the discs in each having slid out of place and gotten scratched beyond recognition when I ordered them from amazon.com last year). Plus, both sites had a very cheap price for Wonderfalls before it came out (like 22 dollars), but the day it was released, it went up to 30.

It'd be nice if the 4-5 dollar change in price didn't really make a difference to me.

I got Donnie Darko because of net word of mouth.

I think both versions stand out on their own, neither is poor by any standard. I like the new music added, it's a nice change as opposed to just a bunch of edits and additions.

Dude, I loved the ending. I think the ending is the best part of the movie, it pieces everything together and while it is a bit subtle, it's the perfect ending for such a movie.

It may not be your thing, but that doesn't mean it's shit. Maybe you would be better off watching the Fast and the Furious or some other crap that is action packed and cool d000de!

R1 release! Woot!

I caught it in theatres, it doesn't dumb anything down. The new scenes were enjoyable and flesh everything out a bit more. If you like the theatrical release as much as it sounds like you do, I'd say you're safe just picking it up.

[Litigation Manuel]

I saw Donnie Darko director's cut in theatres, and it wasn't bad. It didn't necessarily dumb things down, but it made it so you know exactly what is happening. So, instead of looking on the website or dvd, or figuring it out on your own somehow, it just tells you. While it does take some of the fun out of it, the deleted scenes that are added in help show more personality for the characters and make a slightly fuller story. It's not the version you should watch if you haven't seen it before (it's fun to theorize what it's about, great when you watch it a second time, knowing all the stuff in the book, and realizing how it all fits together), but good for someone who's already a fan.

I guess I'll give it a shot then, if anything, I could always pick up the original as a companion piece considering its low price.

I'm still upset about The Killing Moon though. I love that song

 

[Matrix]

DD Directors cut
Angel Season 5
Greatest American Hero

My buys this week.

 

[Eminem]

Damnit....Saw had such a great story but such awful, miserable acting. To buy or not to buy....

 

[Drozmight]

I'll probably watch Motorcycle Diaries.

 

[Dan]

None for me this week, but my copy of The Complete Superman Collection: Diamond Anniversary Edition finally shipped from Amazon.

 

[Meier]

I might buy the director's cut of Donnie Darko and The Motorcycle Diaries (great film). Also interested in Tae Guk Gi and Goodbye Dragon Inn although I cant see myself blind-buying them.

 

[MrAngryFace]

Angel Season 5 is like 45 I think.

 

[Screaming_Gremlin]

You should be able to get Angel Season 5 for $40 this week. Also at Circuit City, it is ten dollars off another season it you buy it with season 5.

 

[evilromero]

The Ice Pirates looks fascinating.

 

[Socreges]

Getting this. Still reading the book, tho

 

[tree fiddy]

This is a must see.


Taegugki's gonna be out too? Haven't seen it yet. I'll check it out as well.

 

[Schmo Florez]

Dave Chapelle's name is almost as big as the title! Milkin' the success of his show I see.

 

[ocelittle]

Donnie Darko (the DC is awesome, I've had it for about 4 months now, seen it easily four times)
Tae Guk GI

Those are my picks...yum yum, Brotherhood of War looks pimpin.

 

[Whimsical Phil]

This is the collection of videos that goes along with TMBG's new children's album (which also comes out tomorrow). You bet I preordered both from Amazon...exclusive content ahoy!

Because I'm a nerd, I'll also be getting...

 

[ocelittle]

HMV by my place is only getting one copy of Tae Guk Gi, and fortunately, I preordered it...

Picking it up tomorrow, with the DC of Donnie Darko.

I really enjoyed Taegukgi; it does kinda lapse into Korean melodrama for a bit, but it's pretty well done this time around and the battle scenes are excellent. Personally, I enjoyed it more than Saving Private Ryan, which it's often compared to.
