Not only that.. if you look closer the words at the back of the Narnia DVD case are mispelled.

Moulin Rouge, it has DTS but not indicated at the back cover.
The Fast and the Furious CE,  lacks special features.

Got 'Remember the Titans' earlier from Viva sale...  It correctly list that it is a full screen version (Presentation: 4x3), but aspect ratio listed is 2.35:1...isn't that ratio widescreen?

Hi Guys,
My friend recently bought NBA: Dazzling Dunks and Basketball Bloopers this weekend and to our dismay the content of the DVD is different from the packaging! Instead of the original "DD & BB", he got the sequel "All New Dazzling Dunks and Basketball Bloopers". Do any of you guys know on how we can inform Warner about this? Can my friend ask for a refund in case they can't replace it with what what they advertised on the packaging? We are really disappointed because we really love this video.

We also did some research and we read from Amazon customer reviews that they had the same experience with the R1 version.

I heard they also made a boo-boo on the R1 release of Superman Collector's Set series and they were able to replace the discs with the correct contents.

Hope you guys can help me.

Thank you.

This is about The Day After Tomorrow.  An old film which was recently re-release en masse by Viva.  So this might have been already posted somewhere on this board.

It list a making of 'The Creatures' featurette.  It's there on the DVD alright... but it was for Aliens VS Predator...   Not trailer but making of for of 'Creatures' from another movie...

Got the recently re-released DVD5 version of  The Road Home (Director: Zhang Yimou) since the DVD9 version sold out eons ago.  The DVD backcover reads Fullscreen, I was disappointed since Zhang's films always feature neat and rich background which really adds to the experience.


Went home and researched on Amazon, and found out that it's filmed in  2.35 to 1 widescreen, which means a full frame version is losing so much detail!

Pop in the DVD and to my delight, it's Widescreen. :)

Hopefully, Magnavision will release or re-release all the other Zhang's film which are licensed to Sony (Not One Less, Happy Times, The Story of Qiu Ju).  Riding alone for thousand of miles is scheduled this month. 

Update:  Not One Less had also been re-released by Magnavision as budget 299 DVD.  Riding Alone... is Php 475.

Now that's a real disservice to the film.  When buying DVDs, I always check if it's widescreen and pass up those labled fullscreen.
