haven't seen freaky fridays remake yet but i thought the parent trap was very well done. i agree with those who liked lindsey lohan. i thought she did a great job and was very charming. i'm really glad they didn't use actual twins and stuck to the old school. with 2 disney remakes underher belt maybe she could be the new generations hayley mills.

I think that I will always prefer the original Halley Mills to any new pop star who thinks they are cool. Besides the fact, Halley did not do Freaky Friday, Jodi Foster did, and someone remade Halley's That Darn Cat (have no idea what girl that was, cause didn't want to see it!!!)

Sounds right as far as I know....

yeah i know it was jodie foster in freaky friday. i was just talking about the fact that if disney continues to put lindsey lohan in their movies, it'll be "kind of" like hayley mills relationship with disney. when i think of jodie foster i don't think "disney movie actress" but hayley mills fits that bill(although she's been wonderful in other work she's done outside of disney) and i couldn't agree more about preferring the originals to the remakes, but the remakes aren't bad. as far as the "that darn cat" remake, it stunk. and christina ricci does not seem like a good choice for a disney movie to me.

Well, it might be nice to have an actress like Halley was, but I think that is what they were trying with Hillary Duff and look how that turned out!

freay friday will come out on december 16th yay heres the cover art its kinda lame

I laughed when I saw the THX icon. I just didn't expect it on the cover of Freaky Friday.

I know this is normally Netty's domain (and he posted this properly in International), but since we still haven't gotten an official US press release on this, here it is for folks who ignore International....this was passed a couple of days ago...

Video 29/09/2003 Buena Vista Home Entertainment 32m 58s No FREAKY FRIDAY DVD BONUS

Cool.. thanks luke/netster/etc./etc.

Extras are a bit dissapointing, but I expected it to cater to kids/teens.

A bonus gag reel sounds like fun! Thanks for posting the features Luke.

It's odd that two of the supplements are classified twice with different run times.

I can only guess that like on the Simpsons Season 2 set, they also have commentaries which over run the actual footage (like how the Do The Bartman commentary substantially over ran the actual footage) - so the (slightly) longer version will have a commentary?

Perhaps there are two versions of each supplement - the "original version" and the "special edition" with an extra few seconds.

DVDFile reports that Freaky Friday will have thr following in the US:

Holy remake! The summer's biggest sleeper, Buena Vista Home Entertainment will release the $100 million-plus grosser Freaky Friday on December 16th. Starring Jamie Lee "I look like the Crypt Keeper!" Curtis and Lindsey Lohan, the disc includes both anamorphic widescreen and full screen versions, a Dolby Digital 5.1 track plus some extras: the "Backstage Pass" featurette, a deleted scene, two alternate endings, "comical" bloopers (what other kind are there?) 2 music videos and more. Retail is $29.95.

Does this mean its going straight to dvd in the uk?

No it's opening soon.

According to some sites it should have an UK release in December this year, the same as here in Sweden!

I think that's wrong Cherny, as I think it's going to be reviewed on Film 2004 tomorrow on BBC1 in the UK - meaning it probably opens this Friday.

But I could be wrong, I only caught a brief snippit of the show last week where I thought I saw them mention it for this weeks show.

Yes maybe it´s so. When is the London Film Festival? Because it´s scheduled to be shown there - but that is not an official release.
But I don´t know if the Film Festival is soon or already have been.
