You own the movie on DVD, but never re-watch it, until.......

Movies on TV have a lot of scenes edited out to allow the movie to fit in a two-hour time block with commercials, so I never watch movies on TV since you aren't seeing the full movie as it was intended.

They always edit out the good parts too.

I can't stand it when someone cusses and they edit it out and insert a different word.

Does that seem right to you ?

C'mon, fess up. How many are guilty of this too ? It makes no sense, but I own a few movies ( Spiderman, XMen, X2, Lord of the Rings,etc... ) and seldom find time to rewatch them. Oh, but then TNT or TBS shows them back to back on the weekend, and I can't NOT watch!

What's up with that?

People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy. - Joss

Can not explain it, perhaps Blue-sun is already sending subliminal messages to trigger potentiel psychics. Two by two..

The reason I watch a movie on TV is pretty similar to why I own the movie: I like it. I watch it.

Of course, when I do watch it on TV instead of popping in the DVD, I'm usually multitasking. If I intend to really watch something in goes the DVD. If I am just watching for filler while playing an online game or sewing, it doesn't matter much which format I watch.

I've got a movie channel package on my satellite subscription here in the UK and they show Serenity a couple of times a week. I know that I'm not going to sit down and watch it on TV but I find myself compulsively checking to see when they are next showing it, (tomorrow at 5pm by the way). It's like a strange nervous tick.

This happened to me this last weekend with Band of Brothers on the History Channell. I would up spending Sunday afternoon watching it when I have the series on DVD.

I rarely watch the shows on regular tv (due to the commercials.. a real drag ITA) but on cable, no commercials...

and Peulsar5... I love Band of Brothers... sometimes I too have to get lost in another place or time.. and I love history.

With me, I only end up watching TV when I literally have NOTHING else that I want to do. So, finding a good movie is like finding a slightly washed $20 bill in my pocket.
