Original Theatrical Trailer


The trailer contained on the DVD is different from the theatrical trailer I have on a compilation.

The DVD print of the theatrical trailer is rather abbreviated and the audio is out of sync with the visuals. It appears that the trailer on the DVD is either what is known as a "teaser" or perhaps the print of the original trailer in the archives suffered some damage in places and required re-cutting for inclusion. It is a shame too, because the original full-length trailer had a great collection of key scenes.

Additionally, the opening music of the full-length theatrical trailer can be heard in the background during the new featurette, 'Trying to offend everyone'. This suggests that Warners has the original in their possession...

I realize this is rather nit-picky but I'm a stickler for details...

Aside from this minor glitch, the DVD is excellent! The audio and video are crystal clear and I have yet to notice any grain or other artifacts often present in a 41-year old film. Bravo Warner Bros!!!!!!
