My apologies, Ichabod; it's about time somebody came up with a plausable theory on the evolution and/or family history of slipcovers.

Rock on. 8)

I admire it too, but I thought it was your research and lineage skills should be commended, rather than your artistic skills. You mean you actually created that mythology all on your own?! :shock: :wink:
I did it in word and then had to do print screen, and well the resolution ain't so dandy! Honestly, you own one forum (there's no website attatched to it by my knowledge) and you think you can make a mockery of people's art skills! Let's see if I debut my masterpieces here in future! ;)

Yes, I came up with it all on my own ;)

If some guys calling themselves the Ancient Greeks come by, you haven't seen me! :shifty:

I wasn't knocking the artistic skills! Rather, I was commending the imaginative history (or as it disappointingly turns out, mock-history) that explained the origins of Slipcovermania!

Um...the slipcover is just like the case cover. Except for the all important "opens like a book".

Buying slipcover-only movies seems stupid, IMO. Fox's Studio Classics wisely don't have slipcovers, and neither do their 2-Disc collectors Editions (you know, the numbered ones).

Unless you mean you like the cardboard case that they use like for WB's 2-discs (before they went to amaray + slipcover), or Fox's 2-discs.

Think of Alice and the mock-turtle, If no one can tell it's fake, who's to say it's not?

Taken from "Ichabod's partially Disney related words of Wisdom" on sale now at book stores everywhere, SRP $19.99.

:roll: Wow...we spent a couple of pages giving you advice on where and how to buy Bambi and it turns out the only reason why you bought it was because of the slipcover. That slipcover is one of the most expensive pieces of cardboard in the world. :D

Oooooooo, Isidour won't be too happy to hear that.
Dude, why get the movie if you hate it? You could have just used the customer survice and gotten a free Bambi slipcover if that's all you wanted. Seriously, I love slipcovers, but that should not be your only reason for buying the movie. :headshake: Having said that, there have been many movies that I've almost bought because the slipcover was shiny. :P

Pasta gives me an idea for a new forum - Glen Quagmire forum. For the admiration of the life that is Quagmire. You know the one we would like to live if it werent for things like ethics and morals that get in the way.

Well, I think the lesson here is you can't judge a movie by it's slipcover (no matter how shiny and appealing it my be).

Wow, another excellent idea. I really think Luke should take these ideas into account. We'd have so many good threads on the Quagmire forum, like:

-Which DVD is the hottest?
-Which DVD is the uglyest?
-DVDs: Do you still want to be friends with them after you've gotten under the slipcover?
-Fat DVDs need love too. But they gotta pay!
-Quagmire shocks the nation on a daily basis!
-Quagmire trial verdict decided: not guilty!
-Giggity, Giggity, Giggity!
-What's your favorite DVD pickup line?

Oh man, the possibilities. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
Ew. Okay, I apologize for those. That was just......ew.

I like slipcoverseven if they are pointless. I'm more for the ones that don't copy the cover art. I'm a fan of packaging and design though so I like them in a way but I'm in no way obsessed with them. :roll:

Truly some of Glenn Quagmire's finest (and creepiest) moments. I, for one, am glad we live in a world where people like Quagmire live among us. :thumb:
