Now that I'm in college, my roommate and I combined have these:

And, my 100% personal favorite of all (and most expensive):

Too bad about the watermark, but it's the only image I could find of it (interestingly enough from the same place I bought it at).

Those are all the ones that are actually mine, and they take up my half of the room (mostly). The back wall is still not completely full.

He's got a bunch of other small ones, but I can't see them from my computer desk and there are already far too many images in this thread anyway, so yeah - those are all the major posters we have in our room right now. The wall's not completely full yet, so we've got a little while to go until we're done.

Gas is about $3.30-ish here, which isn't expensive compared to European countries, but just a couple years ago it was coser to $1.25. That's why you hear so much bitching about the price of gas in America.

That's only on the fucking VHS case and the damn DVD cover. NO, the actual movie has not been change you Star Wars elitest dipshite. I swear, you Star Wars fanboys complain far too fucking much for your own good.

You're judging based on pics that were taken on-set, not based on actual shots from the film, so any cinematographic lighting choices etc are not accurately represented. I'd hold off until you see at least a trailer.

And I'm not worried - everyone I've talked to that's been on set or has seen shooting downtown when it was still here (Chicago) says not to worry, and those images aren't representative of the mood of the film at all.

In short, it'll be worth it. And if it turns out to be shit, well, I'll be the first to admit that, but I'm staying optimistic.

Like I said, if anyone else is planning on going to the Chicago Music Box Theatre to see it, I'll be there for the Nov 2 show (showtimes won't be up until next week, probably Thursday the 1st). Judging by previous Music Box runs, it should be there for two weeks before getting replaced by another movie.

---POTENTIAL SPOILERS?---

Penguin's not in it. I go to Columbia College Chicago, film major, and I know several kids who were interns on the set when it was filming in Chicago, and I have it on good authority that Heath Ledger is amazing as the Joker, and that the other villain is Two-Face, but only at the very end.

Alright, I finally bit the bullet and bought an LG external DVD writer ...

... and had exactly the same problem I had with my MacBook's internal drive.

This is starting to seriously piss me off ... does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be the problem? Would a complete hard drive wipe/OS reinstall solve this? (If that's the case I'll wait till Leopard is released to do so)

The first 2 are quite different, the 3rd less so, and by the 4th the only differences are "sorcerer's," "study" in place of "revise," and spelling/grammar "fixes."

Correct. And if you're as ridiculously anal about things like that as I am, you order the Canadian DVD from Amazon CA thus paying about 15 more dollars than you should, and you get all the books imported from either Canada or the UK.

And I still haven't been able to get home, so I haven't been able to check the deleted scenes for you. I have a copy with me, but it's a one-disc, single-layer, movie-only copy, which isn't much (any) help.

I seem to recall the "Neville Leglocked" scene made mention of it but I could be mistaken and am currently too lazy to pull out my disc and go through the scenes.

Region 1 = NTSC, correct? If it's R1, it WON'T be PAL format ... am I right?

I own it, but not with me, it's at home and I'm an hour away at college - I'll take a look next chance I get and let you know.

These are the fan edits I'd like to see for GRINDHOUSE:

1) Theatrical version preservation:
Fake trailer opening
Theatrical cut of PLANET TERROR
No credits after PT
Fake trailers intermission
Theatrical cut of DEATH PROOF
Credits for PT and DP at end

2) Exended theatrical version:
Fake trailer opening
Extended cut of PLANET TERROR
(PT credits as an intermission? Since it *will* be substantially longer)
Fake trailers
Extended cut of DEATH PROOF
DP credits (or both if no intermission credits)

3) Fan-edit cut, as andy_k suggested.

It costs $1,200 if I recall correctly. The price on that one's being lowered a couple hundred when the next one with support for BD-J and HD's other special thing comes out, which will be $1,300 IIRC.

So yeah, it's a bit expensive.

Blu-ray is going to emerge dominant (well, it already has, to be honest), and eventually will take over almost completely. It's by far the superior format anyway.

It's much better the second and third time through. It's not something you can immediately appreciate the first time you see it, it's something that has to sink in.

Also, while the narration is extraordinarily sub-par and out of place sounding on the original theatrical version, were it recorded better (as in, more in Deckard's character) I would prefer it to be included as it contains some nice information that helps understand some things.

Hmm ... internal drive problems would be quite distressing as it's an expensive, brand-new laptop. I don't own any external drives and I don't particularly want to buy one (at least not until after I've taken care of an external hard drive, a new turntable and speaker system, car insurance, and several other issues), especially if it's only with ripping and not playback or burning.

Speaking of which ... what does that mean? If the discs it's having trouble ripping play fine, and burned discs work fine ... and yes, the ripping issue isn't just with MTR, as I said I tried OSEx, Handbrake, and I think one other with the same results (actually Handbrake gave me completely unreadable files in general- couldn't open them in anything) ....
