DVD Annoyances

Sorry feel the compelling need to rant. 

Not much to do over the New Year's weekend, the whether was bitter cold (-15F) and I didn't feel like going out much. So, I sat around and watched videos I had on hand. Started with 'Nick & Nora's Infinite Play List', moved on to 'Superbad'. Then 'Prisoner of Azkaban', 'Sorcerer's Stone', and finally 'Chamber of Secrets'. 

Of course, when the movie is done, I always view the 'extras' on the DVD. But the one thing I find incredibly annoying is the little interactive games (or what ever you want to call them) they add the DVD. Once you get into them, you can't get out, you either have to stop the DVD completely and start over, or just endure your way through them. 

So, maybe some people enjoy these little 'adventures' but I hate them, though I wouldn't mind them being there if they gave you a quick way out. Perhaps there is a way out, but I punched very button on my remote and couldn't exit those stupid things.

So, it is not so much that they exist, as it is, that once in them, there is really no way out. Very frustrating. 

Thanks I feel better now.
