I left out

TYNS – on DVD R2

& I’m sure there’s something else…

**I wish I taped The Fear of God from when I was a film student. It was the complete doc from BBC 2 with the excluded McCambridge interviews intact!
For anyone oustide of England – this doc originally aired in 1998 when the film was re-released to cinemas 🙂

if your looking i would love a copy of both and can offer in return
the fear of god with mc cambridge footage and a ch4 doc didn’t you used to be satan about Blair and the life she has led.?

Ryan. Could it REALLY be? Wow. I thought you were gone forever! Great to hear from you, old buddy.

I don’t believe the Creek will make another sequel. They’ve been badly burnt by their attempts at creating a new story/film. If anything – my bet is on a remake, or as they call it now, a re-imaging. It’s an easy way to make easy money in the theaters.

I thought Fr. Morning died in E3?

Looks like Gorillaz are fans of The Exorcist. Or Pazuzu, at least.

[Jason Stringer]

And you had to come here to brag about it? 😛 just joking.

I think I’ll settle for the 25th version, there’s nothing else I can do.

Unless… would someone be willing to share the dvd, create a torrent or something? I know it’s illegal, but even though I’d love to buy the movie, I just can’t find it!

PS: If any admin thinks this should be removed, go ahead, I understand.

Thanks!

Does anyone know why Warner Bros. felt the need to “enhance” the 25th Anniversary DVD and tint the majority of the film with a bluish hue? Seeing the comparisons between the two DVD versions, I much prefer the original colors. They do, indeed, look more natural and add a realism to the film that the 25th Anniversary DVD lacks. All that blue is so distracting! Especially in the exorcism scenes!
Peace,

Well, I rented the 25th anniversary version and it’s already blue 🙁

I’ll guess I have to find the original dvd somewhere.

[Jason Stringer]

The only explination I can give is that Morgan Creek had no clue what the fuck they were doing during their ‘let’s make a prequel’ phase. Any in-depth cross-examination is in vain because there is NO WAY they thought that far ahead.

They just wanted a movie in theatres with EXORCIST in the title so they could bring in the money.

…and it did. Sadly.

I keep banging on about this but the original WB release is the ‘original’ version shown at cinemas. Its lacking in the extras dept though.

[Jason Stringer]

I’m not sure I understand? Regardless – my opinion is that the 25th Anniversary DVD is one of the best original versions of the film available on DVD today. The colours are natural and the sound isn’t over-done. I believe it’s as close to the original as you can get in decent quality.

[Jason Stringer]

hatter76, that would be fantastic, I think it’s what should have been done in the first place.

Howdy: thanks, that’s exactly what I asked 😉 I’ll look for the 25th anniversary version.

Thanks a lot!!

Happy Birthday, Paul – and just to be different, I am going to thank you for writing Taxi Driver. Brilliant.
