Blade Runner - 'Definative' Director's Cut - theatrical release?
Sorry but this question is two-fold:
1) What is the status of the new director's cut of 'Blade Runner'
2) Has anyone heard news or rumours if the new 'definative' director's cut of "Blade Runner" might get a theatrical release before it's DVD release? (similiar to the recent 'Alien' Director's Cut).

1) The new director's cut is tied up in legal limbo with the rights owners.
2) Nobody has made any decisions about the film's release since it is in aformentioned limbo.

The theatrical cut is rumored to have been planned to be included on the SE DVD set.

Go out and buy the laserdisc.
BTW, while I prefer the new cut of the film, I also wish the original theatrical version was out on DVD.

No, they no longer possess the rights, or trust me, it would have been released already.

That really makes me disappointed! NOW we have to deal with the stupid crap about the current legal battles with the 'owners'! It's Ridley Scott's damn masterpiece anyways!

Theatrical Cut soon to be out on P2P
OK... here's a scoop.
There's a guy that I know, and he told me that some of his friends are sick of this bull$hit about the theatrical edition not being on DVD. Apparently, they have some good equipment and remastered the Criterion LD to DVD, and are planning to make it available on the internet in full (4.7 GB), for free.
I don't know if this is going to be on Kazaa, eMule, DirectConnect or BitTorent, but I'm sure the guy will tell me when it will happen. Can you guess I want a copy as well ?

I see if it's not for profit and just for personal use, there shouldn't be a problem. Let's hopefully hear from the moderators about this. THEN we'll know!
