Romancing the Stone & Jewel o/t Nile Reviews: Won't be buying! - Blu-ray Forum

Johnny Vinyl · 11-10-2008, 08:33 PM

I was sadly disappointed to read the reviews this morning of these two great films, as I have been looking forward to them receiving a solid BD treatment for some time. It is obvious that 20th Century missed the opportunity to give those fans a product they could be proud of.

I also think it's obvious that 20th Century pushed these out to ride on the coat-tails of the INDY success. They cut corners and produced a product that, in the end, is going to require a remaster/remix or whatever.

Really sad, because the movies and the fans deserved better!

For those of us that can't read your mind, what titles are you referring to?

I've divined Romancing the Stone and Jewel of the Nile.
But using acronyms for every movie title is a PITA.

No different than people using LBP....took me a week to figure out what they were talking about.

No space to write it all out....so I used acronyms.

FWIW overusing acronyms is not SOTA... IMHO.
