 | This movie is a blast from the past for me. I grew up in Detroit cruising on Telegraph and Woodward Avenue. Sure, the cars were different in the late Sixties and early Seventies, but the action was still the same. Ass, Grass, or Gas. No one rides for free! The feel of this movie is by someone who was there, who experienced the coming-of-age craziness that many of us experienced from a middle-class upbringing. Okay, the second movie is only worth owning because the package is cheap. But the price is worth the ticket to the first movie. Watch and enjoy!

| The first movie was much better than the sequel, but the second one was okay. |

| I really loved the First One and just for that the price is right. I bought this item (?) at a local electronics store NOT AMAZON and technically it is not 2 disks. It has one disk, One movie on each side.
Doesn't make a difference to me .... Kinda like it But I'm wondering if there is 2 versions of 'American Graffiti - Drive-in Double Feature? 2 disks versus a 2 sided disk version? |

| The first movie had a much better script and more substance to it, the second was the old Hollywood sequal that does not live up to the first movie. This is cheap DVD marketing so you can spend more money on two movies. They should be sold seperately and I am not giving in to this cheap marketing gimmick. |

| The AMERICAN GRAFFITI DRIVE-IN DOUBLE FEATURE DVD is absolutely entertaining to watch as only George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola could offer!! This DVD (part of Universal's Franchise Collection of film series made by the studio for affordable prices on DVD) contains the two full-length films AMERICAN GRAFFITI (George Lucas,1973) and its sequel MORE AMERICAN GRAFFITI (B.W.L. Norton,1979) and is actually a double-sided disc,one movie on both sides instead of two discs which is mislabeled.First,AMERICAN GRAFFITI is beautifully presented in its original glorious anamorphic widescreen format (2.35.1) along with Dolby Digital Surround Sound and contains the original theatrical trailer and documentary THE MAKING OF AMERICAN GRAFFITI which runs close to 80 mins.Then,MORE AMERICAN GRAFFITI is presented in a crisp,clear new anamorphic widescreen transfer (1.85.1 to 2.35.1).The second film was shot using different camera processes which explains the differences in aspect ratios.The 1.85.1 ratio was used for some of the Vietnam and non-objectionable scenes while the 2.35.1 Panavision format is used for mostly the innovative split-screen techniques and race sequences which is interesting to watch,but it's not the best sequel.The two films and a eye-catching cover art makes this set a must for any fan of the films and that the first film alone would serve as the inspiration for the classic TV sitcom HAPPY DAYS!!! Thanks to Universal and lets hope that they will make some more Franchise Collection releases like the John Hughes films,and The Mummy as well!!! |
