Matilda (1996) (Special Edition)

[Akijama]

Matilda Blu-ray

Matilda Wormwood (Wilson) is an extremely curious and intelligent little girl who is very different from her low-brow, mainstream parents (DeVito, Perlman), who quite cruelly ignore her. As she grows older, she begins to discover that she has telekinetic powers. Not until a teacher shows her kindness for the first time does she realize that she can use those powers to do something about her sufferings and help her friends as well. Villains from the awful Miss Trunchbull (Ferris), headmistress of her miserable school Crunchem Hall, to her parents and older brother begin to feel her ire.

Based on the novel by Roald Dahl, MATILDA was directed by DeVito from a screenplay by Nicholas Kazan and Robin Swicord. The film was executive produced by Michael Peyser and Martin Bregman, with Danny DeVito, Michael Shamberg Stacey Sher and Liccy Dahl serving as producer

This was the weirdest movie ever. All I remember is a German lady killing kids that can fly and a fat kid ate lots of cake.

I caught this movie on cable recently. I used to love it as a kid, but damn, it's ****ing eerie. I love it.

About time, been holding out for this for a long time.

Slipcovers suck. All they do is collect dust, take up space on the shelf and get scuffed/tatty. Waste of cardboard, burn the lot of 'em I say.

It would definitely be screwed up and a major kick in the balls if Sony decides to release this in Full Frame again even on Bluray, we assume it's in 2.39:1 aspect ratio but they really haven't confirmed whether its widescreen or not

Wait a minute, Matilda was actually released in theaters? For a long time, I was the under impression the movie was simply made for home video. That means all this time I've been watching the butchered version and not in its true OAR.

I just sold my VHS copy and Novel version at a Garage Sale.

Yeah...it's a film directed by and co-starring Danny DeVito, of one of the more famous children's novels. I saw it in theaters. Does it not have the standard "modified to fit your screen" label on either the packaging or before the movie?

I do not understand Sony. They won't release Christine or Oliver but they release this? Not to mention releasing Ishtar and not Tootsie. Bad Boys II was on the early Blu ray promo trailers and still has not seen the light of day.
