Fargo SE Announced!!!!
 
I didnt see this reported any where, but I thought I would create a thread about it. IGN.DVD reports a Fargo SE is coming on.

The Coen Brothers' Fargo was one of the earliest DVDs released, and now MGM is revisiting it with a full special edition on September 30th to tie in with the Coen's new movie Intolerable Cruelty.

For $24.95, you'll get the film in 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen video and an all-new Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack. Not enough for ya? Here are the special features on the disc, and hit the media section below for a look at the cool packaging the DVD will come in:


Audio commentary with director of photography Roger A. Deakins.

New documentary: "Minnesota Nice".

Interview with the Coen Brothers and Frances McDormand.

Trivia Track.

Photo gallery

Hidden menus and "other surprises".
IGN FARGO SE

The Fargo SE has been out for a while now on Reg 2. You guys just get the Reg 1 a bit later than us (though god alone knows why).

shanester 05-23-03 08:20 PM

I guess the Coen's aern't big on commentaries??.

At leat we get the cinematographer..:)

The writer and producer weren't available either :confused:

marty888 05-23-03 08:59 PM

So glad I held off on the current one - thanks for the great news!

normy22 05-23-03 09:48 PM

Okie dokey then. That's gonna be a nice one!

Great news, I hope they consider the movie release poster as a cover:

Excellent news

Excellent news! I was thinking about ordering the R2 version, but now that won't be necessary. MGM needs to hurry up and annouce the 2-disc Misery release for R1 to save me some more money.

Haha, first ever needlepoint slipcover? :)

TomOpus 05-23-03 11:24 PM

Maybe they should bring back those LE numbered snowglobes they packed with the VHS. I still have mine somewhere in storage.

I was thinking the same thing. Or at least include a coupon for dvdcoverart.com so I can get a replacement for free!

boston george 05-23-03 11:29 PM

Sweet. I've held off on buying this for such a long time that the thought of actually owning it almost brings a tear to my eye. Once we have an animorphic Raising Arizona my Coen Bros. collection will be complete!

Here's the cover/packaging:

Very cool news.

calhoun07 05-24-03 12:58 AM

Cover is disappointing indeed. Why use the same art as the previous edition?

SergeantPinback 05-24-03 06:01 AM

Hmm... Not really enough there to make me want to upgrade from the last release which is anamorphic, 5.1 DDS and includes the trailer....

A commentary from the directors and/or stars - Maybe. Short of that, I'll pass.......

Space_Monkey 05-24-03 08:40 AM

Do you think the studio will edit the cover and remove the pool of blood under the body before release? I wouldn't be suprised........

I dont think they will actually. I think they will leave it to entice some people to buy it that have never seen this movie. I think the blood on the snow is good symbolism and work well together.

Notice the "Limited Edition Outer Box".

Cosmic Bus 05-24-03 09:08 AM

It sounds like the map might be printed on the reverse side of the cover, meaning MGM could be using clear cases for some DVDs now, too. :thumbsup:

hgar78 05-24-03 10:33 AM

i always liked that cover! very simple and subtle. :thumbsup: cannot wait for this release!!!!!

Simpson Purist 05-24-03 10:45 AM

Sweet! I can't wait.

steebo777 05-24-03 11:23 AM

Ahhh, been waiting for this for awhile. Very nice :thumbsup:
