Posted: 12/10/05 at 2:47pmYeah I'm compelled to also, but I believe that the longer a film is in theatres, the longer it takes for the DVD. So if we want it to come out sooner, we may have to hold our cravings for now!(And our pocketbooks...after all, the more times you go, the more $$ the prod company makes and we just wait longer for the DVD to watch repeatedly at home. :) )

Posted: 12/10/05 at 2:47pmWhy are people so concerned about the DVD? Worry about that once it's not in theaters anymore.

Posted: 12/10/05 at 2:51pmMarch sounds about right. I don't think Rent will be in theaters much longer...

Posted: 12/10/05 at 2:53pmSomeone on another board said Feburary 10th, but I have heard in April too, to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the stage show. I just know, I will be there the first day it comes out!! I think this movie will do wondeful on dvd, because those who love Rent, love it with a passion.

Posted: 12/10/05 at 2:57pmI wonder how much effort Sony is going to put into it since it has not done well in theaters. A single disc? A double disc? The movie w/o features or with hours and hours of extras?

Posted: 12/10/05 at 3:08pmColumbus said on a video blog that "Goodbye Love" and other things they cut from the movie will be on the DVD. They've filmed so much in the way of blogging and 'making of' stuff that I imagine there will be plenty of amusing other stuff on it.

Goodbye Love and Halloween, as deleted scenes
Documentary
Commentary
Most likely, anyway.
I really, really, really want to see some of the gag reel.

Posted: 12/10/05 at 3:24pmGag reel and commentary is what I look forward to the most.

Posted: 12/10/05 at 3:27pmAs long as I get some Anthony commentary, I'll be happy.
#12re: 'Rent' DVD
Posted: 12/10/05 at 3:28pmI have a feeling Anthony will be heavily involved with the dvd features

Posted: 12/10/05 at 3:32pmAnthony has been so good to us throughout this whole thing. The DVD hopefully will be great.

Posted: 12/10/05 at 3:34pmI hope the do what they did on the "Goonies" DVD. the had the whole cast on the commentary and every once in a while, the movie would go to a small box in the corner and you saw the cast as they talked about the film. It's really cool.

Posted: 12/10/05 at 3:39pmFootlooser - that would be the perfect thing. I don't think I would be able to follow 8 people talking if I couldn't see them. A lot of stuff would just get lost and mumbled.

Posted: 12/10/05 at 3:41pmTheir voices are fairly recognizable, but that's a good idea!

And for most DVD's you can have the captions on of the commentary when watching the movie.
An interesting bit: listen to the children's commentary on School of Rock
"and then we went to see Adam Pascal in....what was it called again? Adia? Adidas? Addidis?"
"Aida?"
"Oh Yeah...That was cool"

Posted: 12/10/05 at 3:45pmThat's my favorite part of the SoR commentary.

Movies that have done infinitely worse in theaters have had great DVDs- look at Showgirls.
And what's with all the "not done well" comments? Were you expecting it to top Harry Potter or something?

Posted: 12/10/05 at 3:51pmNo, I wasn't expecting it to top Harry Potter. I was expecting better word of mouth than what it has had so far and perhaps a stronger opening.
