I can see no difference between this and the R1/UK R2 except the additional DTS:

I thought this was tops so am all over it.

If you mean am I a member of the village people then yes.

Personally I'd agree with that CD WOW tag completely. It's probably not as good as Unbreakable but otherwise my second favourite. I didn't think much of Signs (after 2 viewings to) but otherwise he is a talented director. It's not him who blows up his films it's the public.

well each to their own i thought signs was much better than the village- you reckon it's an edge of your seat chiller then brad?i thought it was laughable personally.

I thought it was excellent and the twist wasn't a letdown. I loved what Symamlksknyahn (sp?) did with that. Great film IMO. I thought Signs was crap at first, but loved it on the 2nd viewing.

Got to say I am purchasing the Korean Version - but also I thought this movie was cool as. Great in theory etc. But I've like all his movies so far and Unbreakable was my favourite also.

Bottom line not everyone is going to like the same thing but to say this movie was laughable is a bit much - IMO

I thought that part was tops especially in the woods.

What's so special about the Korean DVD? It looks the same as the South East Asia DVD but more expensive.

i watched this again and liked it better on a 2nd viewing-still believe it's the weakest of shymalans movies though.dvd has a horrible layer change btw (region 3 anyway)

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 25 Jan 2005, 19:39

What about it otherwise? What's the AV like? Is the DTS better? What are the extras like?

I can live with an annoying layer change.

i wanna getthis but i think if i wait this and saw will be dirt cheap very soon..........

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 01 Feb 2005, 12:21

You can say that with all DVDs though Nils. Except Criterion or Japanese titles of course.

It's already pretty cheap. I'll be getting it soon. I thought it was tops with only "Signs" being weak IMO.

Unrealnils · Post by **Unrealnils** » 01 Feb 2005, 14:26

well saw's EIV so i wont have to wait vey long

but yeah R3 village is about £9 from the wow already

will have to wait for know as i forked outfor 2046 +TMFL and maybe GITS this week

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 01 Feb 2005, 20:01

TMFL? Where did talk of Saw come from?

I'm sure you insist on calling them "the wow" like they're some type of god just to annoy me
