QoS DVD Announced

It was a complete fucking embarrassment for all involved. I've never seen a movie so laughed at since...Terminator 3, maybe.
 
"Indian Jones 4 will not be CGI heavy. Well, except for the gophers with the Brigg googly eyes awing at the mushroom cloud and the scenery as the Jeep and duck drive along a cliff's edge, or when Shia LeBouf does a Tarzan swing with a bunch of monkeys through the rain forest, or when Shia has a sword fight with Natasha from Bullwinkle while standing on two quickly moving vehicles flying through uneven forest terrain, or when..."

Let's not forget the horrible green screen backgrounds when Indy is first kidnapped at the beginning when he takes his hat from the ground...which itself was one of the worst blocked scenes I've seen in some time, as well.
 
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is a great film.

Holy shit, I actually typed that with a straight face.

That's a big problem with the movie I had it felt claustrophobic. Even when they were supposedly "outside" the background was so obviously CG'd that it just felt claustrophobic and not real.

Ugh.
 
I really loved QoS. Can't wait to pick it up on DVD and re-watch. I might re-watch CR and QoS in one go with some friends.
 
I might pick this up on DVD, or I'll just wait and buy it Blu-Ray when I have such a player and TV. And yes I really liked it, but I do think it could have done without two editors. Waaaaaaay to fast cuts in places.
 
Can't wait for QoS to come out on Blu-Ray. I guess I'm in the minority, but I liked it quite a bit, aside from some over the top moments.
 
Most notably Bond firing his gun at the camera and the blood dripping down.

Um...that was in the movie.

Not this shit again. ::weeps::
 
Why are there no audio commentaries on either Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace DVD's? This is the sole reason I'm not buying either. I loved both movies though and I'll probaby borrow the QOS from my friend who will be buying it.

There is one on the new 3-disc version of CR (I remember Martin Campbell being surprised that it didn't appear on the original disc, because he'd recorded in time for that) - so I'd suspect a similar set for QoS will appear to tie in with the next movie's theatrical release.

That depends. Is the QoS DVD being released by Sony?

What did you expect from a George Lucas movie? Acutal actors? Actual sets??
 
I'll definitely pick up the QoS DVD. While not as good as the near-flawless Casino Royale, I still found it superior to the vast majority of Bond films, which since Thunderball have mostly been action-comedies rather than espionage thrillers. (And I say this as a huge Bond fan.) QoS is among the few Bond films that attempts to capture the spirit of Ian Fleming's creation - most have more in common with Austin Powers than Fleming, I'm afraid.

It's a Steven Spielberg movie.
