I'm absolutely excited for this spin-off DVD, especially now that they're doing it as an animated feature. American animation needs this kind of shake up to really get it moving in the direction it needs to.

More RAMBO= More Fun!

Excellent film, but coulda done with a wee bit more Rambo Action. More stealthy kills etc... Also, I thought some of the action looked like it had been cropped short slightly in places, the guts in the truck etc seemed longer in the trailers. Will be waiting for this D cut.

As for futurama, the last film sucked and was boring.

Watchmen, could be good, could be great, who knows till we seen the first one?

I CAN'T WAIT for the new Futurama DVD! Ever since the release of the hilarious "Bender's Big Score", I've been dying for it! However, as far as extras go, I certainly hope they're better than the misguided 30 minute Hypnotoad episode, or the boring-as-all-getout physics lesson!

Looking forward to all the Watchmen hullabaloo to come in '09, couldn't care less about a Rambo director's cut though, they'd have to do a lot of cutting to make that into a good movie.

for a second there, i thought an actual live-action Watchmen sequel was going to be announced, which would be complete blasphemy since the Watchmen story should remain a standalone story and not bastardized by pumping out sequel after sequel. i think anyone who has been paying attention to the Watchmen movie already knew an animated Tales of the Black Freighter was in the works and would most likely make it to DVD around the release of the film a la The Animatrix and Batman: Gotham Knight.

Probably a higher body count. By about a hundred.

there is no dialogue whatsoever, unless you count those elongated, unintelligible words burried within the blood-curdling screams. oh, and stallone grunts a lot, too, but that's really it.

Argento's "Phenomena" is unwatchable, mainly due to the AWFUL soundtrack featuring the worst death metal the 80s has to offer. It's so grating, I shoved a pencil in my year to not have to hear it anymore... plus, now I can taste emotions!

I saw the DVD of Rambo. The deleted scenes were all awful and boring. No action. The film lasted 80minutes before the credits.

I was amazed at how gory it was. Closest thing I can think of to Rambo's gore is the beginning of Saving Private Ryan.

Definately has more head explosions-decapitations than any other film.
