What's the point of being angry about something that happened on a movie set over 35 years ago? It's 2024 and your boycott is meaningless.

It's what James Cameron is doing now that worries me far more

The plague was caused by dirty humans and blamed on the rats.

If you could ask James Cameron 1 question (a serious question), what would it be?

I'm old enough to remember when the Laserdisc was $100 and we gladly paid it. This is a bargain!

Yeah, if you bathe once a quarter and poop and pee in the streets you are to blame.

Anyone complaining about the treatment of a freaking rat in a movie made 3.5 decades ago is not a serious person.

Pet snakes are not fed live rats and aside from that, there's a huge difference in an animal being consumed by another animal for sustenance, and an animal being harmed for a piece of entertainment, particularly when technology exists to simulate such situations.

Not sure if that was a deciding factor in this.

Adam Yeend is wrong, 4 rats didn't die. He's misremembering what is said in the documentary. Beanie died later of natural causes. Panic over. Boycott over etc.

All I want is a first run US edition with the o-card, I simply must have it.
I think it's terrible news that it won't be released in the UK. I need to check where I ordered all three, possibly France.
I don't understand so many comments underplaying this issue. This is one of the most-wanted titles every and a big market like the UK won't see it just because of ratings issues, there should be more of an uproar, enough taking things lying down.
One should not have to import due to this.

When are you going to make some fun action films again that don't involve those stupid blue Smurfs?

[Show spoiler]I know, I know he is making billions but damn I hate those movies!

Please explain the line, "Ass like a 10 year old boy."

Worth it.

Hopefully, this won't get me in trouble. But, I believe it was the first time I rented something and ran into macro protection and I needed it in my collection. So, a couple weeks of paper route money went to the cause.

I'm guessing that can't be explained in 2024...

Why? Have 10-year-olds' asses developed new features since 1989?
