Re: Amazon Discounts and Deals Thread #7 (is it #7? I'll pretend it is)
Robert Rodriguez talked about an ultra-violent director's cut back when the movie was still in theaters. The Blu-ray is the R-rated theatrical cut. It's also really close to being barebones...deleted scenes, trailers, and an audience reaction track are it. All the usual Rodriguez stuff (cooking school, film school, any behind-the-scenes stuff at all, commentary, etc.) are missing. There's nothing official, exactly, but based on all that, I'd say a re-release is a very sure thing. When it'll happen, though, I have no idea.
And yes they really are working on 2 sequals, Danny comes to my work to watch movies quite a bit, and is always really friendly, I asked if they were really going to do a follow up or if it was just a gag at the end.
And he said there is definately a sequal in the works.

It wasn't terrible, but it really needed more blood and gore. Heck, the whole premise of the movie was BLOOD, yet they barely showed any! The unrated cut might remedy that, but I only saw the theatrical cut...

When I worked on the Paramount lot, Robert Rodriguez's food delivery went to us by mistake. I called Robert to find out where he was at, and was surprised he actually answered his own phone. There were so many questions I wanted to ask him, but all I talked about was the food delivery mistake. Sigh...

Romeo+Juliet and Moulin Rouge are down to $14.99 each. Too bad that $10 off a purchase of both promo isn't still going; I'd be all over that.

Wallet has taken quite the break over the last week. Looks like it might be a trend that continues for a while.

Amazon has Battlestar Galactica complete collection for $160 . Is that a fair price? I recall it being cheaper in the past.

OMG that movie sucks. Awhile back I used to work at a really high end hometheater store and this was one of the first blu rays we had to show off and they played it on a forever loop. I wanted to kill myself.

The Last Unicorn is up for pre-order at $14.99. It was in my gold box yesterday, so I jumped on the few cents savings.
This BD/DVD combo pack has both the edited 25th Anniversary Edition and the original uncensored version (well, as uncensored as a G movie can be).

I own the 25th Anniversary Edition of the Last Unicorn... I never knew it was edited. How much was cut out?

Re: Amazon Discounts and Deals Thread #7 (is it #7? I'll pretend it is)
Lionsgate licensed the German video masters and audio mix, and came up with a "25th Anniversary Edition" DVD which was released in North America on February 6, 2007. It has audio and visual quality superior to the original U.S. release, and is in 16:9 widescreen format, but has several swear words edited out, and as a result of being taken from PAL masters, plays 4% faster than the original film, resulting in a slightly higher audio pitch than normal. The new DVD edition includes a featurette with an interview with the author, as well as a set-top game, image gallery, and the original theatrical trailer.

Dang, I was in for Black Dynamite for $10, but it jumped immediately to $20. That was a short deal.

Ha, they did match that L.A. Confidential price from Best Buy! I already ordered it there, luckily there was no shipping charge and tax was only a handful of cents.
