I'm sorry sir. I will get straight on it.

 

 

I did only buy them both yesterday and with today being Easter and all i've been out visiting family today, was the shits only thing that made it bare able was the 1 of the wrestling channel i got to watch while i was out.

 

So ok, its between the crow and evil dead but its 12:30 here in ye olde England so i don't think theres allot of hope in me watching both of them tonight, so which is better of the two? The Crow right?

I also bought the Evil Dead this week and, after first watching Stand By Me (cinematic goodness!), I watched it (hadn't seen it in about 6 years) and I will honestly say it's a better film in my opinion than the Crow. It's just great, unrelenting fun and violence and Bruce Campbell is a king amongst men.

You've never seen Apocalypse Now?! Watch that...

 

Two of my top 5's are on your list, Clockwork Orange and Apocalypse Now. Either one would do just fine.

Finished watching evil dead, awesome, awesome film. Thought i was going to be underwhelmed due to hearing so many good things from people about it, definatly lived up to the hype people have given it.

If you liked Evil Dead, you should definitely check out Evil Dead II and Army of Darkness.

Yeah, i'll most likely do that, i've just researched how much it would cost me to pick up parts 2 and 3 over here and it would be cheaper for me to just buy the trilogy with 4 discs than to buy 2 and 3 seperately.

A four-disc set? That's pretty cool. Does the set have any extras that aren't available on the Region 1 releases of the movies?

The set would cost me £17.99 which is about $32 if i bought them seperatly it would of been £ 11.99 or $21 for part 2 and £14.99/$27 for part 3, crazy stuff when i can get the box set for that price.

While it's probably too late...

 

If you haven't seen it, watch Apocalypse Now.

Yeah, I'd definitely pick up the box set instead. There's no reason to buy the movies separately, because AOD alone is nearly the same price as the set. By the way, thanks for the extras list.

 

I could be wrong, but I think most of the extras on Disc 4 weren't released over here. That's too bad, because some of those extras seem pretty cool.

I definatly wanna check out Apocalypse Now as recently for a college assignment i read the book that the film was based off of so i think it would be quite good to see how it was interpreted in this film.

I believe its about 2 hours and 40 minutes, unless you have the redux. I believ that is around 3 and a half hours.
