Not once did either one of them mention the film on BLU-RAY. In fact Latifah kept saying "DVD" over and over and over.

i've learned that most people, especially celebrities, who aren't as into home theater as most of the people on this site use the acronym "dvd" in place of most forms of disc-based media.

My dad calls the audio CDs he owns as DVDs as well

Which in itself is funny because he use to call DVDs "CDs" when they first came out, and now it's reversed

They just use dvd as a generic term for all physical media

Queen Latifah has a show?

Trigger89 · 08-21-2014, 03:02 PM

Considering a career change. The job I'm currently in is far too stressful and it's nothing but politics behind the scenes.

Yeah but my uncle (my boss) is really difficult to work for and his bosses are just as bad, especially one of them who is very political/religious. I ain't going into detail because it's against the forum rules.

I feel like I may as well not even go the the theater anymore. Aside from the large screen, theres not really a benefit. I find myself critiqueing and the picture or sound failing miserably. Then, even in the case o the NextGen theater by me that I actually approve of, 50% of the time I find myself yelling at some inconsiderate ******* to shut their phone off. Turtles yesterday was a great example. And Spidey 2 got pretty brutal w some cocky hoodrat. I actually wanna support aclot of movies, especially marvel and dc comics ones, but I just dont know if its worth it.

When you guys eat asparagus, does your urine smell like it for the rest of the day? Because mine does and it's freaking me out.

Scarface32. I would like to introduce you to Google. There are some things that just don't need to be asked on a Movie Forum, IMO.
