Travers is such a whore. He'll say anything to get his name used on the front of a DVD case or a print ad.

He should have just left out ROTK, Star Wars, The Matrix, and Battle of Algiers and just made it "My Top 25 Movies that came out this year and will probably be really good on DVD".

well, it does seem that he does have some of the movies that arent out yet.
also, travers mentioned the "bedroom" lesbian scene in "monster".
waters mentions that the reason, is not for the rape scene, but because the gay club is called
and thats funny in his mind.
and travers gave 1 star reviews to both i robot and day after tomrrow btw

If any of you had actually read the article, you'd see that he talks a lot about the bonus features on each. He HAS seen them and obviously has the DVDs already.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he is unaware that a SE of Goodfellas was released this year, and that SE is also available as part of a boxed set of Martin Scorsese films.
I think he doesn't know about Schindler's List either.
Does he really think Dodgeball is better than any TV DVD, or did he just have a rule about limiting his top 25 list to movies only?

Even if he does have the screeners that still doesn't matter since the rest of the world has not had a chance to voice their opinion via purchases. Without knowing how well something sells, it is pretty much his personal opinion.
Anyway, that is my humble opinion....

but to give a serious reply, reviewing dvds is tough: how much weight do you put on the movie itself, and how much on the extras that come along with it? clearly travers' list has movies picked for each specific reason, and i would think that dvd talkers of all people would understand that.
