Re: Piracy Supports Terrorism..
The U.S. government(maybe only the Secret Service, I can't remember if other agents were said to be involved) said that 'Piracy Supports Terrorism'. They claim to have evidence of terrorist sympathizers using income from selling pirated films and music to support terrorists. It sounds fishy. This is also remarkably similar to several 'Illegal Drugs Support Terrorism' ads I've already seen on T.V. These activities produce undeclared income which can't easily be traced. Maybe the IRS is pissed because it's missing out on so many tax dollars. The overall point is that the government doesn't know much about the terrorists and is yielding to pressure by the music and film industries to crack down on piracy. Blame pirates for 9/ll/01 and citizens would stop buying bootleg movies and music. The U.S. government is simply diabolical in it's methods.

Re: 28 days later
I've just received a mail from one of the workers of the SE dvd of day otd. I've asked him about an SE of dawn, his replie:
Depends on the rights license. They have issues with the producer. If they do, then they will release three discs of the three main versions. There will be less collectibles featured, less still photos, less behind the scenes, etc. So I don't think it will be as loaded as the DAY SE. I will have nothing to do with a DAWN SE.
Rt
So 3 versions but less extras. Well, less still photos is impossible. On the 2 disc dawn version there were only a few photos and the rest were only covers and posters. Are there more stills on the dvd of dawn in the UK and US?

Re: 28 days later
I've bought the dvd of 28 days later for 25 euros. It was expensive but it was worth it.
The only thing I I didn't like of it was the fact that there was too less of zombie action. And the actions which were available were pretty dark
Rest was great

Re: 28 days later
I finally watched this movie about two weeks ago. About the lack of action, I am divided on why the beginning is a bunch of footage showing a deserted English city(London?). Reason one: the director wanted to listen to his favorite MP3's and used the sequence a wool-gathering session, in which he cat-naps while wearing his headphones. Reason two: the very long sequence of the post-comatose fellow wandering the streets establishes much of the important subtext for the remainder of the film. Why were there none of the Infected hanging around waiting to pounce on him? Answer: the loneliness of the sequence helps acclimate the audience to this forever-changed world. For future reference watch the classic Vincent Price film-"The Last Man On Earth". In this film, Price plays a lonely man surrounded by people who were changed into 'zombies'. At night, these zombies pound on his front door and yell at him. He sits on his couch trying to sleep, while the zombies shout, "MORGAN!!!"(which is, of course, the guy's name).
