I thought the Terminator DVD-14 was cool. Innovative, in fact. But I will agree that you have to treat them with care.
No surprises there. People treat rentals like total shit. I've rented relatively new releases that are scratched to hell. Those of you from the game cartridge renting days know what I'm talking about. Jesus. Most people treat this stuff like crap.
Anyway, I'm surprised they'd release Casino as a DVD-18 or whatever, it seems to be a rare format. I'm surprised they'd bother.
My Uncle owns one of the oldest video rental stores here in NY state, he has told me numerous times that the dual sided discs he has have to be replaced at a much faster rate than his single sided discs.

Is anyone sure that the Canadian release is actually 2 discs (besides the online retailers stating such)? I'd like to know that before I pre-order from a Canadian retailer.

dvdsoon.com seems to have pretty accurate specs. I bought Orgazmo from them a month or so ago and it was a 2 disc set when the US version was a 1 disc (double sided). I emailed dvdsoon.com and they said that the Canadian version of Casino is indeed a 2 disc set. I am ordering it today.

Mind you, Amazon.com just put all their customer databases together. I just ordered from Amazon.co.UK earlier today and here's Amazon.ca carrying Casino:

No info on the no. of discs though...

It is a 2 disc single sided set. I can not wait to get this. I sold my old copy for $40 a couple of months ago.

A 2-SIDED INSERT??? Horrors! That's just awful! With printing on both sides, they're bound to get messed up. I'll wait until they put out one with two separate inserts, and I'll just use the one I want.

I picked up the SE earlier today and am very happy with it. But, I just looked at the set being released in the UK and saw that they split the extras and film over two discs. Would have been nice for them to do the same for the R1 release. Now here's the weird bit, AmazonUK is partnering Casino 10th anniv DVD with wait for it...White Chicks! How in the world could anyone even think of these two films in the same head at the same time let alone, put them together for sale as if they compliment each other

animatedude,If I had to choose between the two I'd probably go with the Canadian for the NTSC as opposed to the UK with PAL. but that's just me.
