 This is a live concert filmed in Marseille, in 2000. As such, it fails to live up to the true notoriety of this most classic of blackmetal bands. NOnetheless, I still found it worth the $7 used-bin price, as a keepsake. |

  Every sperm is sacred.
Every sperm is great.
If a sperm is wasted,
God gets quite irate. ;D |

I want that Muppet Show dvd . . .
Hey adam: I guess SIN CITY is being released today, but I got a question 4U: Is it just the 'normal' release . . . i.e, will they be releasing the coveted "Directors Cut" in the future, or do you know?

Well, I'm not Adam, but I think this is a regular release. What I do know is that, possibly later this year, they're coming out with a version that has all the stories uncut and stand alone. For instance, "That Yellow Bastard" will flow from start to finish, as the stories will follow one another instead of being intermingled.

Yeah, see, the two movie formats are so different, it's not like just waiting for the director's cut...I'll probably end up with both of them, too.
Is there any word yet on when we're going to see Kill Bill all on one DVD? I still refuse to buy half a movie.

I want that Muppet Show dvd . . . Hey adam: I guess SIN CITY is being released today, but I got a question 4U: Is it just the 'normal' release . . . i.e, will they be releasing the coveted "Directors Cut" in the future, or do you know? The release today is the bare-bones release. The only extra, I've heard, is a short featurette. However, regarding the Dir. Cut, there's no telling what will be included but here's a bit from a DVD reviewer from www.aintitcoolnews.comAs much as I love this film, I’m not sure why you should pick this DVD up. Sure, it looks and sounds amazing, with both a DTS 5.1 Surround mix and a Dolby Digital 5.1 track, either of which will give your speakers a great workout. But there’s no extra content here, and when I spoke to Rodriguez at the junket for the film, he told me about his plans to re-incorporate all the deleted scenes for each story, then set up the disc so you could watch each of the segments individually.
He also recorded the audience response during the Austin premiere, so he can actually put that in as a separate audio track you can play during the film. So when do we get to see this gigantic super-deluxe special edition? I’ve heard rumors of November. I guess for now, this edition will do, but don’t buy it if you hate double-dipping.
Sounds great. And if they include the audience response as an alternate audio track, that will really be cool. |

Better yet, here is the news straight from Rodriguez: dvd.ign.com/articles/641/641160p1.htmlIGN: Knowing that there will eventually be multiple versions of a film released on DVD, how do you make sure that your audience is satisfied with each of those iterations? Rodriguez: Well, usually I just put out one. With this one, they are already putting out one that comes out [August 16] that is just bare bones. I had not put anything extra on that, because I didn't have time to finish my DVD extras. They will put that out four months later because of piracy and stuff like that, and they actually don't put anything on there so that they know, 'well, this isn't the real DVD.' The real DVD should come out fairly quick, [and] it's the one that will be obviously the double-disc set with all of the goodies on it. I mean, it has all kinds of stuff on there - I have a 20-minute Film School, a new Cooking School, Sin City Breakfast Tacos, and my favorite feature: when people watch DVDs, they complain 'oh, the only thing about home entertainment is you miss that audience experience.' Well, the best audience is in Austin, especially for a movie that was made there. We showed the premiere with the actors there in a 1500-seat theater, and they would go crazy and Sin City got a big reaction. I recorded the audience in 5.1 so if you're watching the DVD and you want to see it with an Austin audience on premiere night, you just click a button and they're all there going 'aaaah!' so it's really cool. Quentin, when he was directing his sequence, he just let the tape roll when we were shooting, and the sequence taped for an hour, so there are some 20-minute uninterrupted takes. You see him wander in front of the camera and talk to the actors, and [he's] directing and you hear the whole sound of the set. It's like you're sitting right there on the set seeing the movie being shot from the point of view of the camera that's shooting the movie, uninterrupted, and it's really cool. You feel like you're right there, and you get to see what it's like to work with Quentin and the actors and how the movie actually gets made. [And] he will do a commentary on his section. |

I just thought of a good reason to get this regular, bare-bones, theatrical release of SIN CITY on dvd right now, though: Just imagine, for a sec, if the "Director's Cut" dvd doesn't happen to include in its Bonus Features this theatrical release. Then I, for one, will be slappin myself silly for missing it, cuz the bottom line is, we all KNOW the theatrical release ROCKS, and maybe, just maybe, this current edition might end up being the only available theatrical release of SIN CITY. So yeah, I think I'll be gettin it . . . tonight.  |

I'm still waiting for the SE and will rent the bare-bones for right now.
Which DVD cover are you going to purchase, Thorn?
