That's unfortunate. I used to order from DDD frequently back in the DVD days and never had a problem. Looks like they've gone downhill since then.

I loved this during the Fathom event screening. It was my first time watching it. I'd love to get the film but only want to pay $15 or less. Think it will it that in next month?

It's possible.

It's not just you. It looks awful.

Same here. I was already planning my alternate methods of buying it elsewhere around that price but email relieved me of that.

Is the movie on one disc, or do I have to get off my comfy couch halfway?

No worries the flick comes on one disc.

Lovely

Not that I'm that lazy, but I like my movies on single discs.

More power to you if you can sit through it all without getting up. I love the movie, but I need to take some breaks with long movies like this.

I watched it straight through but fell asleep 20 minutes before the end. I tried!

Twenty minutes before the end?! Hahah you were almost there!

Petyr_Baelish · 11-19-2012, 07:59 AM

I've sat through the band of brothers series in one day and The Lord of the rings extended series in one day so I think I can manage to sit through one movie.

rickah88 · 11-19-2012, 12:25 PM

I did the complete S5 of Mad Men without getting up, this past weekend!
LoA I'm saving for this weekend to watch with the folks!

obriensg1 · 11-19-2012, 04:01 PM

I was just thinking. When Blu-ray debuted Sony titles had an ad for 'upcoming movies' that included 'LOA', 'Bad Boys 2' and other that took years to be released, or some that still haven't.

Has anybody compared shots from Lawrence of Arabia in that advertisement to the new restoration?

Why would anybody wanna do that?

MrJoeKalel · 11-19-2012, 06:24 PM

Regardless of LoA being in my top 5 favorite movies of all time...it still surprises me that while watching the whole thing, I don't lose attention, that I don't become bored, much less sleepy.

Anyway, it is a beautiful boxset, my favorite so far.
