DVD Chapter Spoilers

[NinjaMaster]

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

DVD's are brilliant. The picture and sound is unmatched.


BUT....

I am working my way through the 3 series of 24 but to make the DVD's more jazzy why do they have to put screenshots of the upcoming episodes of the "Play Episode" screen. So far they have given away a couple of key-ish points.

Very annoying.

just reading the names of some of the chapters can usually spoil a film if you haven't seen it before.

Interestingly (or not) during the earlier days of laserdisc (which basically have been the foundation of all dvd design - in fact most special editions of earlier films are just Criterion, etc, reprints) some directors hated the ideas of chapters - to point where they refused to have them included. If I remember rightly Kubrick and possibily De Palma had big problems with it.
