DVD’s

Don’t you hate DVD’s that have previews of other movies at the start (before you get to the menu)? I bought two DVD’s recently, Lost In Translation and The Gods Must Be Crazy. The latter is done right: after the obligatory copy warnings, the DVD takes you immediately to the menu screens. Lost In Translation was the opposite. And that sucks. Preview upon preview. I think I would pay extra in order to get a “preview-free” version of a DVD.

And why do they put that loud THX part on the kids movies? It scares the bejeezus out of them! I have to think that the Pixar DVD’s are best, because after the Disney and Pixar logos, the menu sequence starts right up. Just one more reason to love Pixar.
