With no commentary or SNL sketches there's no way I'm double-dipping.

And I don't blame Judge a whit. The previous DVD was a mega-hit and the new one could be if it's done well, and they expect him to do them a favor?? For free?? No one should work for free, are you kidding? They'll rake in tens of millions and he gets to feel like he did something "for the fans"? That's called getting screwed.

I bet that the visual downloads are on the DVD, but the BB gift set actually has the actual items packed in. Simple :)

Cedrock 10-11-05 03:51 PM

hopefully they dont push it back anymore i held off on getting it since late spring!

majorjoe23 10-11-05 03:55 PM

It's less than a month from release, I doubt it will be pulled now.

movieking 10-16-05 04:34 PM

I think that all of the stuff will be there as well. I would be shocked if it wasn't. Whether or not it is worth an extra $10 is another issue.

Hey guys, just a heads up that I'll be posting a review for this disc sometime tomorrow afternoon. Just an FYI, there's actually 8 deleted scenes (not 4, as reported earlier), but they're pretty short. Anyway, the transfer looks great, while the bonus features are good if not a bit disappointing (no commentary, but the retrospective is pretty fun!). Anyway, be sure and check back tomorrow for the rest. :)

Peep 10-20-05 10:37 PM

Oops. They had this at the rental library where I work, but I didn't garb it as I assumed it was already out. Now, with the weekend ahead of me, I'm wishing that I had.

xfilekr 10-21-05 02:14 AM

Dont know if it waws posted yet but at the CC I work at I saw a tag printed for $12.99
Probably release week price

DigitalBits review is up.

QuikSilver 10-21-05 11:56 AM

Just read the digitalbits review and I must say I'm very dissappointed. I was expecting a lot of extras but apparently there isn't that much. However, I'm happy that it's finally anamorphic.

Agreed. Nothing worth rebuying in my opinion other than an anamorphic transfer.. but until I have an HDTV even that's not enough to warrant the rebuy. The Digital Bits review incorrectly states the first release was full-frame only.

Doug Schiller 10-21-05 12:49 PM

Yep, this went from a must buy to a rental.

Man, these studios are really finding new ways to disappoint aren't they?

ShagMan 10-21-05 12:58 PM

:sad:

I'll rebuy it just for the anamorphic transfer, but definitely disapointed in the "special features". Can't we get a commentary??

Toben 10-21-05 01:29 PM

At first I thought this was a must-buy for me too as well, but now it doesn't seem so urgent. Might get it if it's cheap enough, otherwise I'll hold off till it gets cheaper (maybe around boxing day, who knows). In the meantime, I'm thinking there's another Fox release coming out on Nov. 1 that everyone will be preoccupied with...

milo bloom 10-21-05 02:13 PM

Disappointing, but if it's a good price I'll grab it as I never bought the original waiting for the SE.

canaryfarmer 10-21-05 02:40 PM

I'll wait till I can get it closer to $7-9.

yellowbedwetter 10-21-05 06:30 PM

yeah, i might put this title off onto my "Wait until CC/BestBuy includes it in a Buy 2 for $20 deal" list.

Actually, Bill Hunt said:


The previous DVD release was in non-anamorphic letterbox widescreen and full frame only - a crime that's needed solving for years now.

CertifiedTHX 10-21-05 09:34 PM

This is a disappointment, I agree. No commentary or shorts. Seems to be the season for editions that are lesser than they could be. Tempted to pick it up; probably won't decide for sure until I'm holding the disc in my hands.

I wonder if anyone else's old OFFICE SPACE DVD is similar to mine... I always thought the old Office Space DVD was anamorphic, because when I play it on my HDTV, it fills the whole screen and even looks anamorphic, not interlaced or of poor quality with any pixals showing. When I play non-anamorphic DVDs on my DVD player, the player never zooms in - it shows it as is - surrounded by a frame of black and a usual poor picture quality. Does anyone else's old OFFICE SPACE DVD do that in their DVD player? It certainly looked anamorphic to me...

From the Bit's review:


True story: About ten years ago (pre-DVD, pre-Bits), I was doing video production and computer work for a corporate division of Mazda. [snip] A couple months later Mazda closes down the branch and lays us all off. [snip] Luckily, by a strange coincidence, I saw Office Space for the first time a few days later...
Office Space came out in 1999.

Feathers McGraw 10-21-05 11:50 PM

Would have bought it with a commentary. Another stupid studio miss.
