Night Watch

[pgmatg]

Anyone seen "Night watch"? It's in theaters now, and is a very good Russian Sci-Fi / Fantasy movie ("Lord of the Rings" meets "Prophecy"). It's been out on DVD (http://www.geocities.com/rusatg/dvds2.htm) for some time, but since Fox bought all American distribution rights, they have mandated to stop making NTSC formatted dvds of it. The disk has been slowly disappearing from even Russian stores in America. And Fox kept postponing the release until limited release on friday, while sequel "Day Watch" is already out in Russia. Both installments beat American movies in Russia. And the studio is insisting on filming the 3rd part in English. Ain't US movie studios wonderful :rolleyes:

Yeah, I have the dvd. And, personally, I don't practive the habit of referrencing a film and comparing it to something else. In the case of 'Nightwatch' I watch it as it is. I like 'Nightwatch'.
