Those limited edition DVD's are well, limited! As in numbered! Nice going. I had the other, non-limited, non-numbered version, but I was just plain grateful to have Manhunter come out on DVD at all! I went from Betamax, to (rental) LaserDisc, to LaserDisc version recorded to VHS to DVD with this movie.
The colors were crisper than ever. I gained a new appreciation for it on DVD. I knew it was a striking-looking movie, but back then I was just floored by the storytelling and the acting. Now, I taken back by how vivid Manhunter was.
So when Silence Of The Lambs came out (yes, I know it's sacred!), I was all, "Eh?" Less than impressed. Still a great movie, but SOTL had a lot to live up to!
BTW, I feel so accomplished grabbing the screencaps with the VLC Player! Thanks Patrick, for teaching me!
I've read reviews of the Calamity Physics book. Duly intrigued and aim to read it. :-)
Always good to hear from you, agabot. Have your covert movie scooping ways lead to you to the trailers of American Gangsters and 3:10 To Yuma. Can't wait to see those movies!

Glad to see you're learning the ways of the Mac, padawan. I sorta knew that's what you did, looking at your post. Congrats.
