I don't believe jimbob was being a dick. Sure, the subject line sounds crude, but the content was simple humor which in no way entailed him to be a dick. Secondly, Nosey the noseman should watch his mouth before he makes fun of a person for having Mr. T as a childhood hero. I say this namely due to the fact that a large majority of his other message board posts are centered around "Ren and Stimpy" (the lame remake, at that) and analyzing "Friday the 13th VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan.'
And i quote:
"Dude, the first thing that was EVER established about Jason (apart from the fact that he drowned) was the fact that he was disabled. He was hydrocephalic or a mongoloid or something. Remember "Jason wasn't.... :) Jason wasn't a very good swimmer". There's footage of Jason before he drowned, he did not get deformed by being under water for so long like most people think... including, it seems, Rob Heddon."
So i guess when you're not hanging tough in the Freaked message boards, you're busy studying the complexities of a movie entitled "Jason Takes Manhattan." (Don't get me wrong, i like when he punches the guy's head off of the rooftop, but come on...that's seriously the entire plot of the movie, and series for that matter.)
Also, nosey, how very big of you to assure the board that you would in fact say it "to his face" whether or not you were behind a computer. Instead of wasting your time (and other's) as you struggle with a mean bout of Little Boy Syndrome, stick to discussing the complexities of Ren and Stimpy and Jason's-post waterlogging. Just stick to what you know.
Oh and you were wondering about your lack of class? I believe that was proven in your second post when you responded with "suck my dick." It was very mature and emitted wave upon wave of class. No, really. It did. Is this making any sense yet?
Oh! And speaking of sense, "king of bob," the next time you try and degrade someone on a message board, use a spellchecker. Last time I checked, it was "Sense," not "Sence." So, how's that G.E.D. coming along? And way to call someone a "hipocrite" because they retaliated to a snide comment made about them. If you and someone else each had a gun and they were shooting at you, would you simply tell yourself, "Oh, but if i shoot back, i'll be just like him!" Right. You're such a martyr to the IMDB boards. Shall i help you carry your cross?
Oh and if anyone is reading this and considering posting a wise-ass comment such as "Oh you make fun them for being lame, but here you are posting this novel on a message board...looks like you have nothing better to do, not them!!" Guess what? It's 1:56 in the morning and I honestly have nothing better to do at this hour, so save it. Message boards (the Freaked board, nonetheless) are made for discussion, not feminine bickering and ego boosting. I wish you people could get it straight.
We should all totally get together and watch the 2-Disc edition DVD. Who's in??

I'm in.
I want to watch this movie again. I haven't seen it for at least 6 or 7 years now, but have watched it at least 8 times. It's just so damn funny.

I first saw it in the 7th grade. My parents rented it for me and i loved it. I invited a ton of friends over to sleep that night and we all watched it. Since then we've rented the same VHS of it, and the quality has only gotten worse. I think i was 12 or 13 then, and we're all 22 or so now, so yeah, that's crazy how long it's been. Two of us went and picked it up at Best Buy today. 13 bucks! Crazy, i tell you!

It has such non-stop humour. Every scene was packed. And I've seen a few examples where their humour was copied in other mass media, for instance the plane crash scene where he looks up and goes "Glad that wasn't our plane", redone on The Simpsons where Homer is falling asleep at the wheel and then the car goes off the road and explodes, and then it pans back to their hotel room.

"Styrofoam cup..." is (in my opinion) still the best. That was my favoritle line 10 years ago, and it still is.
my other favorites are:
-"Elijah's system is very complex"
*cut to* "PICK A FREEK!"
-The whole "Damn buttered popcorn!" scene
-The aforementioned "Glad that wasn't our plane..." scene
- "...and then Elijah turned me into a sock."
- "...But you can keep the beard!!!" scene
and of course:
"Freeks is a registered trademark of...etc"
and many many more.
I've been online friends for probably 6 years with the sister of Alex Zuckerman, the kid who played Stuey Gluck. I need to ask her if he's psyched about an integral part in the extras on the DVD!

I was so tired last night when I wrote that, that I actually put in "ISP" instead of "ESP", but it didn't look quite right ... heh.

Actually, i've never interacted with Nosey. I just read the thread and was bothered. This was partially due to the fact that he ruined my Freaked buzz and it was almost 2 in the am.

What are the features on the region 1 release?
The UK release has none.
Oh, I tell a lie, it has a trailer.

Instead of typing them out myself and forgetting probably all of them (i.e. my probable reaction would've been "I think there's a deleted scene") here's a copy from Amazon's information on the US release.
DVD Features:
* Available Audio Tracks: English (Dolby Digital 5.1), English (Dolby Digital 2.0 Surround)
* Commentary by directors/Writers Alex Winter and Tom Stern
* Featurette: Hijinx in Freek Land
* A conversation with writer Tim Burns
* Theatrical trailer and deleted scenes
* Freaked art gallery
* DVD-ROM: Screenplay
* Disc Two:
* Freaked: The Reehersel Version: Full-length rehearsal of the film with scenes & dialogue cut from the final film
* Early script readings of selected scenes
* Terrifying footage featuring the character of Stuey Gluck
* Behind-the-scenes video of the construction of Freek Land
* Witness Alex Winter's makeup transformation
* Two short films by Tom Stern and Alex Winter: Squeal of Death, & NYU Sight & Sound Project
* Number of discs: 2
I have a region free player and a long time ago i considered getting the UK version, but like you said, it seemed so bare. I heard there was some extra footage in it though, is that true by any chance?

Like it's an extended cut?
I dunno about that, as I have only ever seen this version.

Yeah if i recall, i remember someone saying the UK release contained some extra footage not in the original US VHS. It wouldn't even be a deleted scene, but instead just included in the movie. But, if you never saw any other version but that one, like you said you probably wouldn't notice. Just curious, though :)
