That's always one word who's spelling always seems to escape me, no matter how many times I've seen it and corrected myself. Ah well.

For Disney, I wanna get Bedknobs and Broomsticks.

No, it was actually a thread posted by a spammer for porn DVDs. Sophist deleted that post, though. :)

I could no way be bothered to post my entire film collection. It would take too long and take too much effort, haha.

But my other Disney film arrived today, so all in all I've recently purchased:
* Robin Hood (Disney)
* Brother Bear (Disney)
* Tarzan (Disney)
* The Sword in the Stone (Disney)
* Dumbo (Disney)

And my brother recently purchased:
* Borat
* This is England (teehee, I should have bought it really, but saved me some money)

And my dad bought me:
* Bridge to Terabithia

I keep wanting to see Gattaca but forgetting about it.

Ischium, for Nosferatu, how long in running minutes do you have? The original film, iirc, was about 103 minutes and the longest version I've ever seen (but don't have) was a VHS version from a small company and it ran about 97 or 98 minutes. But I've seen some running as low as 69 minutes or a little less. Which is a considerable cut.

I think the longest version I have is in the 80 minute range.

Gattaca is a surprisingly decent and reasonably intelligent science fiction movie. It's true science fiction if you get my drift. Not a fantasy/action comic with robots, lasers, and implausible physics.

My DVD of Nosferatu runs at 66 minutes. damn. :?

I went by the movie store again thinking, "Now, there's something I want to rent and I can't remember what...". :roll: I forgot it again!

I think as far as mass-produced versions, 80-something minutes is about as long as it gets. To get into the ninety minute range you'd probably have to really search it out.

Or who knows, maybe by now they've released a longer version (though I doubt it; it's not exactly on the "hot list").

I was recently compelled to buy the 3 disc version of Caligula, which I'm somewhat embarassed to have in my collection, but it's there regardless. By no means a good (or even defensible) film, but it's not worthless either. I think it's one of the most fascinating failures in the history of movies.
