It seems like the standard DVD is a little lite on extras. "The Phenomenon: The Comic that Changed Comics" seems to be the only major behind the scenes featurette on the 2-disc set. Unless it's on par with the "Blade Runner" documentary "Dangerous Days" which was immense and incredibly immersive at 3 hours and 10 minutes. Or maybe they're coming out with an even larger version later.
But please answer this question for me, people! Is this a good and in depth character driven film?
And, 1/10, what would you give it?
July's so far away
(sigh)
at least they can put in the stuff that was cut out from before
and on my birf day, no less.
