Special Ag
Obviously to recount my steps from seclusion to being allowed back into F.B.I. headquarters without so much as a bat of an eyelid I wanna get my hands on X-Files 2 next week.
I, being a wiley and investigative fellow through this beard thats grown back is now wondering which edition to get....
The American version which boasts 3 DVDs:
X-File #933380/111/11198832
http://www.amazon.com/X-Files-Believe-Three-Disc-Special-Digital/dp/B001G7PSN0
Orrrrrrrrrr, the U.K. version which allegedly only has EEEEK SHOCK HORROR two discs.
X-File #9333802/1112/119 - if you look carefully this question contains a subliminal message - 88322
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Files-Believe-Special-including-Digital/dp/B001G7PHDQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1227062274&sr=1-2
Oh, the humility.
So.... Would it be fair to say that the U.S. version sounds, oh, so much more meaty.
*Crackle* CHEESE IS ILLEGAL - MICE WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD - VOTE STEWIE GRIFFIN FOR PRESIDENT IN 2012 AS THATS WHEN THE WORLD WILL END.
Am thinking of buying the DVD next Monday eeek the 2 disc one damn I hope it comes with sunflower seeds.
Ciao!!!!
Just to tell y'all that I did some FURTHER research and the U.K. DVD is BRILLIANTLY the same as the U.S. dvd Indepedently the U.K. one comes out before the U.S. one ha ha ha ha.
Answer
Well, Fox, I'm getting the 3 disk American version since conveniently I happen to live there and have the proper DVD player. I can't wait.
