Oliver stone collection...Thoughts
My best friend, who happens to be a huge Stone fan let me know that this is something that he wanted me to pick up for his B-day. I did, during that wonderful Deep Discount DVD sale that took place. I was under the impression that all of the discs included, would be the Two-Disc Special Edition version(Platoon, JFK) and not the shitty one-disc. Is it true that they did not include these version with the BoxSet? I'll be pissed if that's true.

God Dammit. Fuck!! Now I find out that some of the discs aren't even anamorphic. I bought one for myself as well. Why the hell could they have just not put out the best versions, and for the lesser material, at least give us an Anamorphic transer and a 5.1. track(like I need a 2-Disc set of U-Turn).
Just ban everything that is not in Original Aspect Ratio. Shit! Nothing PISSES me off more, than with half-asses efforts. All Extras should have been left on, PLUS the EXtra disc made just for this set. How F---ing hard is it to go back and release a film that was filmed ain Widescreen and make it Anamorphic. I swear to God, why don't studios Understand. Fans Want Everything....No some...Not just Movies. Every Fucking Thing!!!!! Sorry for the language , but this hit a nerve.

Nope, but he did buy it for himself unfortunately, thinking that he was going to get the 2-Discers. Its a good thing I live far away from my dad, because once I tell him that they left off the Extras, and they did not re-release the exsisting films in Anamorphic transefers, he is going to go APE Shit, and frankly I don't balme him. If it needs to be a 20 Disc set, then make it a 20 Disc set.The people in charge of marketing should be shot.

When I said "our" home I refer to that as part of mine. haven't you done that before? I grew up in the house for a little over 20 years, so we always refer to it as "our". Sorry if it was confusing. I live with my wife and wonderful dog. That's it.

Damn...I don't know why I find it so funny that everytime that Dalvin posts, someone (usually Jackskeleton) posts something to call him out on his lie. It is like a car wreck(pun intended!). I think Dalvin might be my favorite member, just because he lies every time he says anything. Too funny.
