Title: Dun-du-Dun-DUN! Dun-Dun-Dun!
Post by: Ryu on October 19, 2003, 09:30:54 AM
This is just a small reminder that on Tuesday, the Indiana Jones Trilogy will be released on DVD for the first time in both widescreen and fullscreen.  It\'s something I\'ve been waiting for for a long time, ever since I got rid of my VCR that is, and I\'ll be picking this one up on day one.

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Findianajones.com%2Fraiders%2Fdvd%2Fnews%2Fimg%2F20030923_1_bg.jpg&hash=f0b6ab57dd2ae72d9f937e756b2e1b3e709f276a)

I was just wondering if anyone else here will be picking it up on day one like I am.  Even some of the more snobby movie fans should see the genius in at least ONE of these films.  Are any of you guys big fans like I am?

I will most likely get this pack too, great films that I enjoy watching again and again.

Hmmm, not sure if I\'ll buy it.  Only the first film was worthwhile, and I do have fond memories of it.  The second was utter crap, and the third was only partially crappy.  

If possible, I will buy only the first one.

I\'m going to pick it up...from your house that is.  :p  You\'ll let me borrow it right, Ryu?  You\'ll let me keep it at my house and you can ask if you can watch it and bring it back to me, right?  ;)  Cuz you know you love me that much!  :p

I think I might invest in it as well, I might blow a fair portion of my birthday money on it.

I just gotta say, I remember watching (Temple Of Doom???) when I was like 10 and I was totally freaked out by that guy at the end who drinks out of the cup of life and then goes all crusty and his head explodes...

I had nightmares about that for weeks. Great movies though.

Post by: Ryu on October 19, 2003, 04:53:53 PM
The Last Crusade had the guy drinking from the Cup of Christ and decaying into dust while Raiders of the Lost Ark had the guy with the exploding head.  I think you mixed the two films in your head somehow.  Regardless, you need to buy these movies and relive that experience!  ;)

Oh...well...I reposted a thread just like this. Too bad my subject heading just as ambiguous! :p

Well, the idea was to make people say "wtf" and enter and then understand when they read the first post, but I guess curiosity isn\'t exactly the strong suit of many.  :p

Post by: Rya on October 19, 2003, 07:58:10 PM
*Gasp!* How can you mix those two movies up?!


So you\'re not going to let me keep at my house, Ryu?  :(
Title: Dun-du-Dun-DUN! Dun-Dun-Dun!
Post by: Ryu on October 19, 2003, 08:08:09 PM
I never said that.  You can keep them there so long as Raiders stays in my DVD player.  You won\'t miss that one since you prefer Last Crusade anyhow. :p

I saw Indy in widescreen on LD years ago.  Was impressed with all the extra material added and was hoping the for the DVD soon.  The series is a little bit before my time but I do like it, though I wouldn\'t buy it myself.  I\'ll get it for my Dad this Xmas.
Title: Dun-du-Dun-DUN! Dun-Dun-Dun!

You\'ve got yourself a deal!  :X

And yes Spudz, we do have a telephone, but we wouldn\'t want to miss a moment of trying to make you gag.  :D

How old are you anyway?  I always thought you were close to my age (21).

There are reviews of this up on dvdtalk, and evidently they spent a tremendous amount of time on the video and and audio. The picture is near flawless now, and the audio mix in 5.1 is outstanding.

I will be picking this up tonight at midnight.

I just heard....George Lucas and Steven Spielberg....REPLACED most of the guns in the Indiana Jones movies with radios. Sorta like in the movie "ET". :(

Damn....I wanted the original digitally enhanced movies....not altered for Family Viewing. AAARGH!

WOOHOO! I have just been duped! I\'m glad I\'m wrong about this. The guns stay! :D

GMan has replaced Swifdi as the local Tard.
Title: Dun-du-Dun-DUN! Dun-Dun-Dun!
Post by: GmanJoe on October 21, 2003, 08:49:00 AM
Oh hush. A bunch of people were saying that because Spielberg replaced the guns in ET that he did the same thing in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Wait a minute.....Video....you\'re the resident gullible person here! You got no room to talk! :D

I have it, and for an older movie. The transfer and sound is incredible. I see 0 dust, scratches, or artifacts. They spent some time on this one. Well worth 50 bucks IMHO.
