The Conversation on Blu ray

great! :-)

Great news. Why is it that the cover art for this film gets worse with every subsequent release, though?:

^^yeah, it barely even looks like Hackman!!!

finally!

“it barely even looks like Hackman!!!”

That’s what I was thinking. My first thought was “that looks like one of those character likenesses from a wax museum.”

^^yeah, a Madame Tussauds wax museum version of himself!!!

I hope the transfer is good. The dvd’s are pretty ordinary.

Agreed.

I have faith in the transfer on this one, the Lionsgate blu-ray of Apocalypse Now is wonderful. But yeah, shitty box art.

they should have went with the original theatrical poster, for this imo:

There’s a (German, I think) poster based on this image:

that seems pretty appropriate.
