I want to watch this one again. They could have done a better job with the DVD.

Barrybgb · 07-29-2009, 08:53 AM

Oh?. I'm guessing it's a bare bones disc?.

**Melis** · 07-29-2009, 11:30 AM

Yeah, and it's fullscreen.

Barrybgb · 07-29-2009, 12:41 PM

I know I am probably in the majority here, but I prefer Full Screen, actually. Sometimes Wide is okay when it isn't practically the entire screen, but I really can't stand it when practically the entire screen is boxed and the actual image is a little slit in the middle. Lol. It just drives me crazy more than anything else. Lol.

Sounds like I would be okay with that part, but I always like something in the way of bonus features. I know some films may be smaller type films, but someone has to be buying it, and someone has to love this movie. A little extra something wouldn't hurt.

That's fine, but they should offer both versions. Then you can pick what you want. Also, if you have the wide edition, you can just press the zoom button on most DVD players. Then you'll have the full version. There is not way to turn the fullscreen into wide.

Yeah, I think they sometimes just slap movies onto DVD without any care.

Barrybgb · 07-29-2009, 02:24 PM

Yeah, I do the ZOOM. However, I had to get a new DVD player this past May, and the ZOOM doesn't work as well.

Nothing gets me more excited than a "loaded" DVD. Or a "2-Disc Special Deluxe Edition!". LOL.

I like those if the extras are actual extras.

**Melis** · 08-24-2009, 06:27 PM

It's sad how new threads get two posts then they just die.

I'm always amused when a DVD lists just a sole trailer as an "extra", and that's it. The Trailer should just be automatically on there.

Yeah, I see some older threads that have hundreds of posts and hundreds, some thousands, of "views". I've made a few that no one posted on except me. Lol.

**Melis** · 08-25-2009, 03:38 PM

Yeah, I know what you mean. I've seen them list closed captions and subtitles as extras. Whatever.

It's sad how people don't post here anymore.

That's just pathetic!. Special Features Include "Subtitles!". Geez.

More people need to post. I've been doing my advertising, but it doesn't seem to be working much.

**Melis** · 08-25-2009, 04:20 PM

Yeah, those aren't extras.

Thanks for trying.

**Melis** · 10-27-2009, 06:23 PM

I need to watch this again. It's just a cute movie.

Barrybgb · 10-28-2009, 01:59 PM

This one is on my 80s list, but I haven't come across it yet. Just gives me something to look forward to. Lol.

**Melis** · 10-28-2009, 02:04 PM

I hope you find it. I bought mine online.
