THX-1138 Finally Coming to DVD
OMM0000 writes "George Lucas' first film, THX 1138 is finally coming to DVD. They've also launched a new site, as USA Today reports. As webmaster of a certain THX-1138 fan site (which will remain nameless to avoid slashdotting), this is excellent news. For all of you lamenting the Star Wars prequels, be sure to see where Lucas' roots in filmmaking are."

Not knowing what THX-1138 was, first glance of the article title resulted in the reply: "Sonofa! I have to upgrade my home theater for *another* audio format!?"
Well fuck you, you just spoiled the movie for about 600,000 people. I mean, who could have guessed THAT's what's going to happen in the end. Mark your spoilers, earth-dweller!
Marxist evolution is just N generations away!
I understand there have been some minor revisions. For example, in this version THX 1135 shoots first.
Dark Star was inspirational. I took up playing the bottles because of that movie. It changed my life.

I don't even have the old Star Warts let alone the new one.

No no, that's a peccadillo. Allegories are what causes you to sneeze and get all itchy.
When is your true masterpiece going to be released?
