My copy didn't have a sleeve in it, is that how it comes or did I get ripped?

JC, no not that one

MacGuffin

I didn't get an insert either.  :yabbse-angry:  Fuckin' Disney.

"Far From Heaven" didn't include one too, and "Catch Me If You Can" came with one, but it didn't have the chapter listing on it, just a Dreamworks ad.

Yeah mine had no slip either. Just gotta say what an amazing score this film has.

yeah, i work at Walmart, brought it back, made them open another one only to find out that IT didn't have one either.  Irritating, at worst...i still haven't even seen it....this will only be the 2nd Spike Lee joint I've watched, but i don't expect to be disappointed.

Thanks for the info.

The deleted scene - Sway (great scene, by the way, but really all the deleted scenes deserved to be cut) - is Spike's use the Snorri cam.

Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

No slip.  Great transfer, the sound is excellent.

Typical Spike commentary. Great anedotes spread throughout, but also full of long pauses of silences and just relaying exactly what you are watching on screen.

Haven't listened to the screenwriter track, but will get to that soon.

Nice featurette of Spike's career retrospective with Scorsese's input.

my sister's immediate reaction to the cover: "why the hell is he on there twice?"

Lol, it is a fucking horrible cover. Great dvd though...awesome movie too. Love the "evolution of an american filmmaker" - or whatever - thing.

i really wanted to pick up 25th Hour, but i already spent too much money buying Miller's Crossing, Barton Fink, Rushmore - Criterion, and Metropolis (1927).

maybe i'll go back tomorrow, even though i'm nearly broke...
There are shadows in life, baby.

pick it up dude. its worth it.

i've watched it twice already since i got the dvd and i must say that eddie norton's performance  is great stuff. watch his subtle facial expressions, the fluctuations in tone in his voice, the... well I can't articulate it well but the little touches he adds is amazing. it really is one of his best performances. brian pepper is great too.

Quote from: cbrad4dbrian barry pepper is great too.
