And BDC,you were right mate-that Razorback DID come with a 'pigskin cutting'

I watched BURIED last night,and although it was said the aspect ratio was wrong,it looked fine.

As for the film itself,I can't recommend it enough!
Gripping stuff!

It takes a real talent to keep you engrossed for ninety odd minutes with one character buried in a box!

Hitchcock would definetly have approved.....

Nice haul Reaper. Now, try and keep that Criterion STRAW DOGS.

Absolutely! Buried was one of the best films released last year in my opinion. Had the privilege of seeing it in an almost-empty cinema with a silent audience contrary to a lot of people's experiences, and was blown away by the execution of it all.

Give that man a shake!

I don't mind too much if it's opened up to reveal more picture. Was Buried filmed 2.35:1 or Super 35?

Haha. I saw the screencaps comparison and I could actually see an argument being made for the UK release adding tension by making it even more claustrophobic. Maybe whoever was in charge of the transfer at Icon was a frustrated director and took it upon himself to 'add' to the mood of the film

edit: Stephen - Buried was filmed 2.35:1, the dvd is 1.78:1
