In anticipation of a possible Blu-Ray release later in the year I was curious who liked it and who didn't - any why? Personally for me I think it's one of Spielbergs best films to date: It has doomed love (Pinnocchio style), sci-fi, androids, the most beautiful John Williams score I've ever heard and of course who could forget Teddy. When I first saw it on 18th Sept 2001 it was incredibly emotional with the scenes involving the WTC, collapsed buildings and statements of Manhattan - the end of the world where the lions weep, even when David jumps off the building towards the end and we see him falling down past the sides of the buildings it reminded me of 'the falling man' on 9/11. It's still sometimes painful to watch but it is such a beautifully crafted masterpiece and the last 30 mins of the film always gets me and I cry like a baby every time, of course made even more heartbreaking with Mr Williams unforgettable score. A Blu-Ray release will be a day-one purchase for me and I can't wait to experience it again but this time in DTS HD or TrueHD. I can only imagine a flooded bedroom on this day!
