And yet it was on Meet the Fockers, albeit slightly altered with 10th Anniversary title cards.

Ok, I have to ask, but what is the big deal with not having the trailer? Do people actually watch them? Just curious. Not the first time I see people post about trailers missing.

It's a big deal with the trailer is a finely crafted piece of promotion that just kicks all kinds of ass. Done right, trailers can be as artistic as the movies themselves. I could watch a loop of the trailers for Casino, Wyatt Earp, Philadelphia and Carlito's Way all day long.

What were the cinemaclock.com shipping rates to the U.S.?

Hell, I could watch Casino's alone all day long.

Can anyone who has got the dvd say what's in the trailer for the SE of the big lebowskii?
What can we expect?

Just received my Canadian Pressing of Casino from dvdsoon.com and its a dual sided disc just like the US pressing. I am really disappointed. I emailed them to ask ahead of time and they said that it was indeed a 2 disc dvd. I know not to take their word anymore. What Scumbags!

Sorry to hear that! :( Did you ask about a refund?

andicus 06-14-05 09:55 PM

Hmmm... I can only find one UPC code for the widescreen version. It's the same on every (US or Canadian) site I find, including cinemaclock.com, which specifically states that it is a 2 disc set. So, is there any confirmation that a 2 disc version actually exists, or is this just a misinterpretation of the pre-release information?

The UPC code I find is 025192355226.

After reading your post I went to cancel my order from there but it's in "packaging". Can anyone confirm that a 2 disc set is out there?

Purchased Casino SE from a retailer (Futureshop) yesterday and it'sa DVD18 as well. Unless it's only the full screen copies that have the 2 disks?? Didn't think to check those at the time.

SWR 1 06-15-05 08:23 AM

Mine is a widescreen Canadian pressing and its a dual layered/dual sided disc. Every Canadian website that I went to prior to purchasing the dvd, stated that it was a 2 disc dvd. I don't understand what happened. Is there a possibility that Universal put pressure on Alliance to release it the same way as it was being released in the US (dual layered, dual sided), because they were afraid a lot of people ordering Canadian versions if it were a 2 disc. A lot of people I know bought the Canadian version of Orgazmo (which ironically is also an Alliance/Universal release in Canada) because of the fact that it is a 2 disc. I am very disappointed. I don't think any 2 disc version exists, but if anyone does find a 2 disc set, please let me know. I think its pretty messed up that they release widespread info that a dvd is one way and then it turns out to be something completely different. It really is false advertising.

My Canadian edition arrived in the mail today. Also dual sided.

I was in and out of the room when that trailer was playing.
It looked like a normal trailer for a DVD. They showed regular scenes from the movie and introduced the characters. The only way I knew it was a special edition was the title card at the end. They didn't list a single extra.

I guess Universal owns the rights to it now?

surfingelectrod 06-15-05 01:04 PM

I got this from Netflix today. It's the widescreen version, and it says DISC 1 on it. On the special features menu, it says to flip the disc.

Is it a DVD-18 or DVD-14?

b.n. 06-15-05 04:15 PM

Definitely a DVD-18. Also noticed that the disk is 'Made In Mexico', although the case is Canadian (bilingual).

Rival11 06-15-05 05:58 PM

I bought this disc yesterday, it froze up at 1:47 in and stayed that way. I returned it, got a new one, now this one freezes up at about 1:53 in and won't let up.

Am I the only who is havign a problem here?

And yes, My player is fine, I watched about 3 movies after and had no problems.

When that harmonica riff(if thats what you call it) from Gimme Shelter plays as the "CASINO" title card comes up; I got chills.

JoeyOhhhh 06-15-05 09:18 PM

Got mine from DVDSoon, also dual sided. I had a feeling that the Canadian was going to be the same as the US

surfingelectrod 06-15-05 09:25 PM

Does anyone have a link to view the trailer online? Thanks...

Dr. DVD 06-16-05 08:41 AM

Aren't there some other DVDs that do have the teaser though?

surfingelectrod 06-16-05 10:10 AM

People said that Meet the Fockers did, but I couldn't find it on my copy.
