Thumbs up to Peter Jackson
I'm so impressed with Peter Jackson, not only did he make great films, but he also let us know about the future 4 disk dvd releases. I hope more directors take a page out of his book.

It's common for most studios to give you a heads up on upcoming special editions. Look at Black Hawk down. this isn't anything new, people just choose to ignore those advance warnings and then complain after about the double dipping.

So I'm very thankful for the LOTR releases and others that were announced ahead of time.
I don't bitch as much as most though, if it's not annouced ahead of time, the studio can shove the re-release. They already got my money once, and as long as the original release is anamorphic OAR and in DD 5.1 or DTS I personally see no reason to upgrade.

I mean, who the hell are these people who contribute nothing to the discussion multiple times just to pad their post count.

So why post again just to claim that you're not inflating your posting?
I don't get it.
Anyway, post count doesn't matter much. You have those people who have 30 posts a day and just badger other people and post asinine quips, and then there are those who post really thoughtful things every few months.
Too bad they don't have member ratings activated here. Then we could vote people off the island a la Survivor.

And thank you for understanding that my post count doesn't matter much since its so very low and my rate for each day is also very low.
And I hope you finally get it.

In fact, it would have been better had you stayed silent, because your defense is untenable. When you come into a forum and find the last post for almost every thread on the first page is by the same person, and then see that some of the posts are pointless, off topic, inane, or all of those things, it's hard to say you're not just padding your count.
