Ratings/opinions seem pretty even on the two from my limited research of IMDB and RT, with perhaps a slight preference for the original, fwiw. |

I find it interesting that you chose to skip over the post right after mine and dissect my observation. I would hope that my point isn't considered less valid or dumbfounded because I'm new to the forum. That would be a shame.
First, my initial comment wasn't 'anti' your post at all. I was simply making an observation and your post seemed like a good starting point to get my point in the mix. Second, I don't even look at who I'm replying to when I quote a post. You could have been a mod or the site founder or an old post of my own for all I knew. Third, I don't think there was a post after your post when I first hit the quote button, which could have been hours before I eventually sent my reply. I'm a multi-tab user that opens and starts multiple posts. Fourth, 'dissect your observation'? Are you serious? It was a quick little opinion thrown into the mix, quoting a specific post just to add overall context, but not directed at you specifically. And even if it was directed at you, it wasn't negative in any way. |

Yeah, it sure takes a long time to post those one-liners. I'll let you get back to your "multi tab" posting.

Re: Evil Dead - August 31, 2010
Seriously Anchor Bay? They can't include all previous features from the Book of the Dead and Ultimate Edition? I will buy it because I love Evil Dead and am a sucker for Bruce Campbell commentaries but why aren't the Ladies of the Evil Dead Material,Bruce's Fan Documentary,and old Commentaries on this? Surely everything would be able to fit on 2 Blu-Ray discs? I guess next year there will be a 30th Anniversary Blu-Ray,its sad that has a very big possibility of being true :(

Re: Evil Dead - August 31, 2010
Specs from bluray.com:
The BD will include not one, but two new HD transfers (one in 1.85:1 and the other in the original, director-composed 1.33:1), personally supervised by Raimi, accompanied by a Dolby TrueHD 5.1 audio track. Most of the bonus features, released on previous DVD editions, will once again be available on a special, limited edition DVD included with the Blu-ray. Special features include: * On the Blu-ray: o All-new audio commentary with writer/director Sam Raimi, producer Robert Tapert and star Bruce Campbell * On the special-features DVD: o One By One We Will Take You: The Untold Saga of The Evil Dead o The Evil Dead: Treasures from the Cutting Room Floor o The Ladies Of The Evil Dead Meet Bruce Campbell o Book of The Dead: The Other Pages o Discovering The Evil Dead o Unconventional o At The Drive-In |
Re: Evil Dead - August 31, 2010
Well, there is the new audio commentary. So it's not 100% recycled. But honestly, for the life of me, they have more to say? They've done like 2 commentaries already.

Re: Evil Dead - August 31, 2010
So I'm guessing that I should still hang on to my Elite disc?

Re: Evil Dead - August 31, 2010
In, but only because it'll have a 1.33:1 version. New commentary? Yawn...

Re: Evil Dead - August 31, 2010
Out of all the releases of the Evil Dead films I've bought only one of each copy which I still own. I have the Book of the Dead Edition Evil Dead, the Limited Tin for Evil Dead 2, and the numbered Director's cut for Army of Darkness. I may buy this one, but I still like all the editions I currently have- and I don't like having more than one copy of a movie if I can help it.

Re: Evil Dead - August 31, 2010
Since it dropped in price to $17.49 on Amazon, I went ahead and pre-ordered it. But the Special Features are on the included DVD? Fuck these studios are getting some cheap and lazy.

Re: Evil Dead - August 31, 2010
Because Blu-ray has 50GB Discs and 2GB of SD extras could certainly fit on it. It comes down to the studios being to cheap to spring for a BD50 (most likely this release is a BD25 - and they could still fit 2GB of extras on) or too lazy to re-encode with a menu. Might just cancel and wait till this hits $10. Tired of rewarding studios with sales for a lazy job.
