i'll be glad to order this along with Little Miss Sunshine with a big smile on my face.

Great movie, glad it appears to be a pretty decent DVD. I'll be interested to see the making-of on this one. It's nice to see R.D. Jr. back in good movies.

never got to see this in theatres, but the concept seemed pretty interesting to me. might have to pick it up on dvd if not rent.

Cameron 10-09-06 07:46 PM

i wondered if they were going to give us any footage non animated...

alfonsosoriano 10-09-06 07:47 PM

I wanted to see this but the showings were pretty limited around here. I'll rent first.

ReduxGuy 10-09-06 11:25 PM

Great news. The best animated feature of the year.

Arpeggi 10-10-06 12:15 AM

Best movie ever.

redrum 10-10-06 02:25 AM

I would assume so in this featurette:
"The Weight of The Line: Animation Tales" (featuring animator interviews, studio B-roll, pencil tests, production art and step by step examples of the animation process) and trailers. Retail is $27.99.
Since it is basically rotoscoping we will see atleast a few shots of the non-animated footage.

I think it would have been pretty awesome to have an alternate angle with the live action footage for the whole film...I know that's a tall order and may have required a lot more work/money, but it could have been very cool. I loved this movie, so I'll be all over it in one way or another.

I wish Warner Bros. would use this opportunity to get Linklater's "Suburbia" out on DVD but I doubt we'll ever see it.

animatedude 10-10-06 02:26 PM

i agree with mdc3000....

matome 10-10-06 03:03 PM

Was going to seeing this in the theaters, but I blinked and missed it. Guess I'll have to look forward to it on disc.

ugh!!! worst.artwork.ever!! what warner bros. was thinking?!

CinemaNut 10-11-06 04:34 PM

This really got short shrift at the theater. Guess the studios assume people are dumbed down and dont wanna think about a movie anymore.

I actually really like that cover art! Usually I would always prefer the original poster art, but I think this DVD cover is better than the original one-sheet. I'm impressed. You can see the back cover here: http://www.dvdactive.com/news/releas...er-darkly.html

Saw this movie twice in the theater and will be snatching up the DVD on release day.

As a fan of Linklater's other films, I can say...no.

mdc3000 12-19-06 12:13 PM

Yes it is that good...definitely a must see.

Heartagram 12-19-06 03:05 PM

I agree, a great disc to pick up, the movie alone is worth it.
