Is it me, or are the DVD chapters spaced too far apart?

Since I got the Kingdom DVD back in Oct. 2008, I couldn't understand why this film felt so much shorter than the previous 3 films. I mean, it's the 2nd longest. And then it hit me today when my friend's parents had it on today at their house(What're the chances)

The DVD chapters are very far between. They're separated by long gaps, and I have to fast forward and rewind alot just to get to a specific part. And I think this contributes to the feeling that the film is shorter than it really is.

So has KOTCS' DVD chapter spacing annoyed you at all or made a difference in the feel of the film's length?

That means that I can now personally account for three copies of the DVD in existence! And there I was thinking I was in possession of a rare artifact (what with KOTCS being so universally hated!)

I never noticed that. I rarely use the chapters as most of my DVD viewing is on the PC, where I can just click the progress bar instead.

The short answer is 'no'. The longer answer, is 'no, not really.'

Sorry to hear about that, mate. It sucks to find out that your most precious relic isn't so rare afterall...

Actually every family I know has all 4 films either in a box set or separately. And guess what the shocker is, they love ALL of the movies!!

Right about now, somebody in a bunker is probably reaching for their loaded gun...

Nah...they have no need for a bunker. They're probably reaching for their gun as they're sitting in their lead-lined fridge...God knows that's all the protection they need!

I think they made the DVD in a hurry.
The chapters are vrry far apart.

Lets see what the special edition will bring.
