I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like....victory.

Now we know that Blew-Ray has hit the BIGTIME when they start releasing crap like this. I'm soooo glad Blew-Ray won the war

If any movie deserves to be put onto Hi-def.....this isn't it.

Personally, they should leave it as 3-strip Technicolor, the way it was meant to be seen. Now all you notice is the sets and staging, more than the transformation into fantasy dreamscape, all the imaginativeness is lost.

It doesn't come with Dark Side of the Moon alternate audio track, so no deal...

My wife loves this movie, I can't stand it, flying monkeys & all. Now if the monkeys flinged poo, then this would be a classic. No poo, no classic.
When the remake is released I want flying monkeys flinging poo at the dam dog!

Good movie, but no way worth $47 even with all the filler.
