WTF? How in the hell can you charge $30 for The Terminator after it has been out for ages? Im pretty sure they made a major profit of that film from theatre, VHS, and DVD sales. With the outrageous prices they are charging for the players, you would think the discs would be cheaper. I understand that initial release costs more than others but man, can they really justify the double or even triple prices of DVDs today? For $40, Drew Berrymore better jump out of my screen and perform in my living room. Oh yeah, DRM to the max. Sorry Sony, I hope this is one venture you have that fails miserably.

"They also kept the booboos in the film, some things in the background that shouldn't have been there but were never visible even in theaters due to registration problems."

Like the dead guy hanging at the top of the screen?

edit: heres all the mistakes on Wizard of Oz.

Sheeeesh.

Some people can't just enjoy some of the best storytelling of all time...

You mean the scene that's described at great length in the Urban Legends section?

Just looked at the "hanging body" stuff there. Wow, some people are REALLY stupid, or maybe just plain dishonest. Yeah, someone hung himself and no one on the set noticed. Stupid things like that are spread by people who've obviously never been on a movie set in their lives.

I agree. People are always looking for more drama than the story tells LOL.

Kinda like Three Men and a Baby with the supposed ghost and shotgun. Looked for it many times still never saw it. I think thats another legend.
