Glitch in Gangs of New York??
I was watching my GONY DVD yesterday and notice 2 very distinct glitches.
DVD 1:
13:37 - This is the very begining and is when Amsterdam takes his dads knife and strikes towards the Natives. It kind of freezes a bit when he stabs towards the screen. Any body see this or have this on their DVD? Is it a glitch or a camera trick from Martin S.?? Than right after when he runs back into the Brewery being chased, one of the Natives is hit accross the legs and trips. The scene appears to jump or skip as well.
1:10:15 - This is during the part when Amserdam is with Jen on the pier and kissing. The camera shakes a bit, or jumps. It looks a little like a skip but Im not too sure.
Theres also another part and I forgot to note the time, but its on DVD 2 when Bill is doing the Exhibition for everyone. When hes talking and they show him at a close up, he moves fast and erratic, but his mouth follows along with his speech. So Im not sure if this is one of those stupid camera tricks again.
I know alot of people had to have gotten this DVD, so can someone out there help me out? Its apprecciated.
Thanks

If I remember correctly, there were some spots in the theatrical release where it looked like a frame was missing. I just chalked this up to a bad reel since I saw it in the budget theatre. Hope that rests some minds...

Hmmmm....
Well as anyone noticed this yet:
1:10:15 - This is during the part when Amserdam is with Jen on the pier and kissing. The camera shakes a bit, or jumps. It looks a little like a skip but Im not too sure.
Or is it just my copy? I kinda need to know so I can either return this for a better copy or something.

Speaking of this DVD, has anyone noticed how when you click on "Special Features" or "Sneak Peaks" or whatever, it shows a little graphic but then abruptly goes black. Is this a problem with my copy or something that's a real issue? I'm not sure how else to explain it, you'll know if your disc does it though, I'm sure. Anyone?

Also, during the fight at the beginning, there is some pounding techno-like music playing in the background that seems out of place. I don't think this is a glitch though.

I had a few problems on the second disc with freezing and pixelating...like a delaminating disc does at a layer change. it does it on all of my players...taking it back in for an exchange. aside from that...my only real gripe is...I just didnt care for the film all that much. D.D.Lewis was the only bright spot for me. I dont think watching it again will change my opinion....but I'll save that for movietalk.
