@Laremy you really should listen to part 2 for your review, as that is the real battle sequence. in reply to Laremy #
@CriterionRefs I think they would fake it to possibly put pressure on Criterion to release those titles, or stir up news? in reply to CriterionRefs #
@CriterionRefs its amazing that no one in their comments is questioning the validity of those pages. Weird. in reply to CriterionRefs #
@CriterionRefs see, I'm not sure about that, I'll investigate. in reply to CriterionRefs #

About to watch Julie Taymor's Titus for the first time in years. This was one of the first DVDs I ever bought, back in 2000. #
This Fox DVD reel brings back so many memories of the early days of DVD. I love the echoes on "deleted scenes!" #
I wish Julie Taymor would art direct my life. #
This has to be the greatest monologue from this movie by Harry Lennix. So badass. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ww9VYBox04k #

So that point in the map in Africa? That was Wakanda right? Black Panther! #
Oh by the way, I really really liked Iron Mab 2. #
I'm totally down for a War Machine spinoff movie. #
@gadgetguy I don't think that deleted scene in the Hulk with frozen cap was in Antartica, It was in the north pole. in reply to gadgetguy #
Did you all catch that Genndy Tartakovsky worked on the Expo Action Concepts? So thats why he wasn't working on the Dark Crystal 2? 😉 #

@droidguy1119 Really? I didn't realize that. This DVD was under ten bucks, with shipping. So I don't mind much. in reply to droidguy1119 #
As cool as the Inception trailer was I feel like it gave way too much of the plot away. I'm both more & less excited now, if that's possible #
