I know what you mean, mewrio. From the point of view of anyone other than an Al fan, it's merely a goofy parody movie of the late eighties and is, in the grand scheme of things, certainly nothing one would ever group with the true cinematic classics. A good movie, yes, but nothing that has revolutionized the art of storytelling as we know it or anything like that.

Yes.
Finding Nemo is.
Congrats on getting UHF, mewrio! (Wow, this is the first time I've ever posted in this forum.)

And with good reason too.
DVD retailer Minotaur accused of parallel importing
By DON GROVES
SYDNEY -- Australia's antipiracy org has launched its first court case
against a retailer accused of the unauthorized importing and sale of
DVDs from the U.S.
The Australian Federation Against Copyright Theft went to the Federal
Court after Minotaur (Entertainment) refused to stop the practice.
AFACT said the Melbourne store, which also sells through the Internet,
releases DVDs before they are available from authorized distribs and,
in some cases, before the films' theatrical bow in Oz.
It claimed Minotaur charges up to twice the price of local copies.
Known as parallel importing, the practice has a "significant and
immeasurable impact on local theaters and video stores," according to
AFACT.
The case is listed for hearing on Dec. 15.

Great.
Oh well, they probably deserved it. Amazon has prices to boot.
Can a mod please remove the link from Pookster's original post?
