Unless the transfer is way better, I think I'd rather keep the DTS version. Love the flick tho...

This movie has alwasy been a guilty pleasure of mine, but unless this new release is a huge improvment over my current DVD, I think I'll pass.

This is a def for me. Like JOE29 I don't own this and it looks like a pretty decent set of extras. Thats alot of deleted scenes for a film like this. I really like that cover as well.

Love the cover, not a fan of the "Pure Adrenaline" title. Buuuuuut, I don't currently have a copy of this, so if the DD 5.1 isn't far off from the dts track and the transfer is an improvment, then I'm interested.

The correct title should have been "100% Pure Adrenaline Edition".

I've never gotten around to picking this one up yet...so waiting a little longer won't hurt me. Looks decent enough for me.

I used to have the old DVD release and love this movie. I remember going to see it at the cinema and thought it was easily one of the best movies of the 90's. I always remembered on the trailer a short clip showing Keanu riding shot gun to Swayze and firing off a shot out the window from the gun that he uses on Swayze when they are free falling. Prorbaly be one of the added deleted scenes. Definite purchase.

Great, now I'm fully erect. I'm hoping for a better transfer, but I don't know who I'm kidding. I'll buy this regardless.

Is the current release anamorphic?

And the title is about as lame as the rest of 'em...

I'm in. I've always passed the current bare-bones release by hoping for a SE someday. I love this movie!

No commentary... No sale.

I really want a commentary, but this may do. I like the cover, but prefer the original.

I was holding out for for a SE. Finaly it's here. I wondered if they'd release a SE on the 15th ann., but thought it wasn't happening, because there was no news, this far into the year.

I seriously doubt they'll be releasing a better version, any time soon. So I'll most likely get it.

I'm crazy stoked for this. I named my cat Bodhi because of this movie.
