No other details, but at least there's a date.

There is no way this one won't get a fantastic release, either as a double-dip or originally.

asianxcore

sweet, thanks for the news. hopefully they get it all on the first DVD, so no double dip will be necessary.

Jackskeleton

Fuck'n Amen!!!

cultshock

Nice. The DVD sounds like its gonna be awesome too (from what RR has been saying about it).

Cornelius1047

I wouldn't put too much faith in that date tho. Almost everything listed there is coming out that day or the following. Also, August 1st is a Monday. Maybe Sin City will come out on the 2nd, but maybe not. Definitely looking forward to it though.

Mr. Cinema

This is a guess: Sin City 1 disc in August and the eventual 2-disc Special Edition right before Christmas.

SFranke

I'm really interested in seeing the extended versions. I thought the stories were paced a little too quickly.

DVD Giant

Maybe they mean sometime in August because Aug. 1st is a Monday, and secondly, having Fever Pitch, Sin City, Ong-Bak, Miss Congenialty 2, Upside of Anger, Kung Fu Hustle, and Beauty Shop all in one day is insane!

QuikSilver

Wow, that was a fast release. Good news!!

Sweet

My guess exactly....I even predict a triple dip: 1 disc release, 2 disc release, 1 disc unrated/directors cut.

Geist

Hasn't Rodriguez been pretty good about not double-dipping though? SPY KIDS is the only one I can think of he's done a SE for, and the original one was a pretty early bare bones. Besides the variations on EL MARIACHI and DESPERADO in various flipper and 2-disk packages, I think he plans for the DVD early in the process and takes a lot more control than the average director bothers to.

Hopefully the first will be the best until HD.

Cameron

The Spy Kids special edition still isn't in stores....he said on the 3-d commentary he was working on it....but it has not shown up.

and his double dips have been rare....superbits for a few titles...and a re-release for once upon a time in mexico....

oh and i still want roadracers

MasterCXtreme

I'm sure there will be a superbit. But some of the special features he was talking about sound too sweet to pass up. Besides, I'm not sure you'd really need a superbit on this one anyways.

kevin75

good news to hear. i just cuaght this today and was very impressed.

Mao

Sorry to burst the bubble here, but that is in no way the confirmed date. Some of the newer "release date" sites offer "estimates" of a possible release month (by putting the title on the first of the month), then place it in the correct date slot when it announces......they are way off on alot of titles, by the way....

ignition

Yeah, I'd pretty much buy every release of this. Personally, Ihope things go the way of Hellboy and we're told of the special edition before it comes out. Hell, I'll even take a mini-bust of Marv

Cameron

I'm with Mao on this one...that monday release date should have been a red flag...

Shroud

I'm still waiting for an anamorphic re-release of "The Faculty" from Rodriguez.

cultshock

I don't think that Columbia/Sony had anything to do with this film (domestically at least), so no Superbit. (maybe another region Superbit release is possible though, I'm not sure who is handling distribution in Japan, etc)

And yeah, I didn't realize that Aug 1st was a Monday. Oh well, here's hoping for an August release anyway/

onebyone

You and me both. Hell, I would love a mini-bust of Marv.

rexinnih

"Sometime in August" works for me. Just waitin' to pick up this DVD.

ThatGuamGuy

Didn't he just say recently that he's working on doing an SE of "Faculty" and finally releasing "Roadracers", along with the oft-mentioned SE of "Spy Kids"? I thought I read that somewhere.
