Back to the Future Trilogy

[Guest EQ]

I'm sure most of you have heard of the defect on the second and third discs of the BTTF box set.

 

My question is for those who have it already. is the problem noticable to the point where it takes away from the experience of watching the movies?

 

I love all three of these movies and really want to get the set.

[Guest IDrinkRatsMilk]

Just buy them anyway. They'll replace them if you send them in, so it will be no loss if you don't like them.

Well, now that I've seen all 3 films on DVD....I can honestly say that I didn't even notice it.

Honestly, I can't see a problem. Now granted, I'm not a movie buff or a home theater geek, but it is not a problem for me. My advice is to take RatsMilk's suggestion and just buy the thing, but send it in in February if you're not satisfied.

I got it for Christmas, but your best bet is to:

 

Buy the widescreen edition now

Watch the 3 movies all you want

Send for the replacement discs in February

 

Like they said in the other thread, the corrected sets will cost more than the ones out now due to the remanufacturing.

These supposed examples were posted on the other BTTF DVD thread. So can anyone who has seen part 2 or 3 confirm these examples as being accurate?

 

 

 

If these examples are accurate then that is totally unacceptable. And i'm sorry, but anyone who wouldn't notice that butchery or have a problem with it are blind.

Yeah, but if you are someone like me who hadn't seen the "correct" version until now, then how would you know the difference?

[Guest El Satanico]

Come on it's completely uncentered from top to bottom, he's pointing totally offscreen and there's a mile of uneeded sky above their heads. Anyone who's ever seen a movie should be able to see that something is horribly wrong.

You know what....I'll find out right now.....that's the scene where doc goes to "resize" his jacket right?

 

BRB.

Ok....now, I just finished watching the scene that Satanico put up captures of and I am CONFIRMING....that they are indeed misframed. Now, having seen all three movies in the past few days, what I can say is this......if you're not looking for it, you won't notice it. I certainly didn't notice MJF's legs dangling while on the hoverboard or anything like that. But they ARE fucked up.

Thank you Detective Dames

 

 

Now i just need to decide on what to do with my copy. Anyone have confirmation of a price change upon rerelease?

[Guest C.H.U.D.]

Yeah, but if you are someone like me who hadn't seen the "correct" version until now, then how would you know the difference?

Universal is counting on people to think exactly that way. Be glad you were able to find out the difference.

[Guest SP-1]

I ain't buying it until the correct copies come out, and I'm going to try to find a way to order them from a site that has verified correct versions. I might just wait until mid-march to give the incorrect versions time to empty out of stock.
