Les Jones: Sickest DVD Case EVAH!

A&E > Sickest DVD Case EVAH!

After Thanksgiving dinner I decided I really wanted to watch a flick. I wound up buying a DVD - Reservoir Dogs. It's the 15th anniversary edition and when I pick it up I notice it's in a metal case. What the hell? Couldn't figure out why they'd go to the trouble.

Then I realize the metal case is in the shape of a gasoline can. The inner case folds out to look like a giant matchbook. Ouch.

That is both sick and beautiful. And I am adding it to my list.

So I had only seen the movie once, back when it came out on videotape. My friend who had seen it before warned me that one scene was really disturbing, and when I watched it I didn't think it was too bad.

Last night I watch it and I found that scene really disturbing. I must be getting soft in my premature old age.

When Tarantino first screened RD for critics, he had seat belts installed in the theatre seats. He's always had an eye for dramatic presentation.

I can't listen to "Stuck in the Middle With You" anymore, though...

I simply LOVE this kind of packaging. Witty, clever, and definitely put there for the "insider" factor. Only the faithful understand the joke.

Yes, a "gottahave"

Saw this post and went out and ordered it right away from Amazon.com

Awesome. and Awesome packaging.

Saw the movie for the first time in 1994 when I lived in London. It was playing in Soho and a group of us went up to see it. We had heard good things, and it certainly didn't let us down.

Its been a favorite ever since.
