THX 1138 DVD Review

Behold, the film that started it all, now on a Director's Cut DVD. This movie was to George Lucas what Snow White was to Walt Disney. Before American Graffiti and six Star Wars films, not to mention the merchandise, there was THX 1138. You'll find references and hidden tributes to this movie in other Lucas films. Did you ever notice Milner's license plate number in American Graffiti? Did you pay attention to the room numbers in Star Wars? But this movie is so much more than the answer to a trivia question. It was FAR ahead of its time, even more than Star Wars would be years later. This movie is just aethetically beautiful to look at and listen to. Of course, this new DVD offers some improvements to both video and audio, making it look like a modern day $100 million blockbuster, instead of a 35-year-old movie with a rookie writer/director.

THX 1138
Look at these incredible prices on THX 1138 DVDs. What's that? You're not an Ebay member! Perhaps it's time to crawl out of that cave and into the 21st century. Register as an Ebay member now. Of course it's free! It boggles my mind when I see people pay retail for items they can get on Ebay for 80% less.

What THX 1138 managed to accomplish was simply amazing. This Director's Cut Special Edition brings back the magic once again, and adds a ton of extras. An absolute must-see for most movie fans, especially those Star Wars fanatics.
