;) We write it in the order we say it. We say "December twentyfifth, two thousand and seven" so we write it 12/25/07. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

We write it in the order we say it. We say "December twentyfifth, two thousand and seven" so we write it 12/25/07. I write it the way I say it also. 25th of December 2007. As an US American, I can say, the rest of the world has it right, even part of the US military But the only proper date on a computer is yyyymmdd , then even ms windows can sort them correctly | | | Premium member since 29 August 2002 ----

| Posted: | | | | Quoting Randall_Lind: Quote: just seems slow to me. I have seen movie-to-DVD turn around faster. It can be but 1) It tends to be smaller movies this happens with (Spiderman only went off the screens at my local cinema a month ago!) 2) IIRC last time a big studio did a very short turn-around on a big movie (Night at the Museum I think), the threatres quietly pulled it after a limited run in protest at their potential loss of business. | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong |

| Posted: | | | | I remember the movie Chopping Mall it was out for 2 weeks then disappeared then a year later saw it on VHS. Now it is on DVD I should buy it.
Movies get pulled all the time and most movies make their money back in the frist 2 weekends anyway. I went to the movies last week and it made me feel bad I wasn't home watching TV. I really can't believe all the damn TV shows ads while waiting to see a movie.
This is why I rent or wait for the DVD. | | | Last edited: by Randall_Lind |
