So I called asking about returning the BROKEN Indiana Jones box set and the lady told me I can't get my money back - I can only exchange it for another item of equal value. WTF.

So what should I buy from Walmart with the $37.84 exchange?

Yeah, I just bought it last week off Amazon when it was on sale for under $20.00 :hyper

I tried to hold out, Cheebs, but they've been promising the SEs for years without anything to show for it. Meh.

They released them in Europe and just LAST MONTH they both were added for blu-ray release this year. Often blu-ray releases get dates much earlier(such as casino royale) even though SD-DVD releases are out the same time.

Most suspect the DVD 2-Disk verisons will be out with them.

If they do come, I'll buy them. $20 for early satisfaction isn't much. Plus, you think PD cares about extras and all? He owns gymped versions of Brazil and Goodfellas. :rofl

Ayo papi I'm going to buy the SE Goodfellas as soon as possible. It's not a big deal with Brazil though

It's the barebones criterion at least right?

Post by: The Miles Trahan Burger Experiment on March 06, 2007, 06:04:58 PM

IT should be a big deal, though -- bigger than Goodfellas. The cut you own is edited and crappy compared to the Criterion edition. The Goodfellas disc only cleans up the same transfer, puts them on one disc, and adds a second disc of "meh" features. I love the film, but its one of the lamest SE's I own. :-\

Wait he owns the UNIVERSAL dvd of Brazil? That is the stupid cut of the movie and isn't nearly as good.

What the fuck PD you bought the bad cut of the film?

Title: Re: Walmart's return policy sucks ass (ADVIZE ME FUCKERS)

He won't buy my old Criterion for a measely $12, either. :wag

PD you have no right to talk about Brazil ever again untill you see the final cut of it. All the others are shit.

No this is the right version. TVC knows far more about Brazil than you and he said it's the correct one.

Anyway I just got back from Walmart. They wouldn't let me exchange the set for something else - I had to get another Indy boxset lol

Uh, no, its not. The Criterion Cut is the best available cut, and the Universal cut is the one you pretty much want to avoid. Fuck White Man, both Cheebs and I know our DVDs and the Criterion version of Brazil is the "true" version you want to own.

Then explain why the universal cut is about 20 min shorter and the one gilliam does NOT approve of?

I suspect White Man didnt know what you asked. Every brazil fan would advise you to avoid the universal cut like the plauge

He never answered me. He's probably cursing himself for believing White Man as we type.

Why would white man recommend the studio chopped up version of brazil anyway? I suspect white man was confused or likes versions of movies that are not well liked.

Post by: Cheebs on March 06, 2007, 08:06:17 PM

there has been 5 cuts to the movie, the one you have is a restored cut, yes. the 4th one I believe. The 5th and final one was done FOR criterion and is gilliams personal favorite.

Does the version you have still look the same as the one Cheebs posted? Because if so, you DON'T own the Final Cut, but the gymped theatrical release.

Well the cover art is the the same, but it doesn't feature that blue sticker. Plus towards the bottom of the box it says that it features bonus footage and is fully restored.
