Dirty Dancing: Ultimate Edition vs. Collector's Edition
 

Anybody now the details as to what the differences are between the Dirty Dancing Ultimate and Collector's Editions? I've had trouble finding a consistant answer.

think the movie has been remaster and it is in 6.1 in stead of 5.1..
it is now a 2 disk set

the extras are also different.

me myself is also in a dilemna as to should i double dip

sigh

In my humble opinion, you should only double dip with a nice lady.

Hopefully, it is anamorphic. I want to buy it for my girlfriend for Christmas.

I hope its anamorphic too.

my wife loves this movie so I hope its a decent set.

Anamorphic will justify a double dip.

Otherwise, I'm keeping the old copy.

It IS anamorphic and you get some new features but you LOSE the concert

Thanks, sounds good to me.

DVDFile:

Dirty Dancing: Ultimate Edition.
Artisan Entertainment will release this new two-disc set on December 9th

Featuring a newly-remastered 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen transfers and Dolby Digital Surround EX and DTS 6.1 ES surround tracks, extras include:
--the same audio commentary from the previous DVD with the producers
--a text trivia track
--new interviews with Jennifer Grey and other cast
--a director featurette
--Grey's screen test footage
--trailers and music videos.

Dropped from this release is the "Dirty Dancing Live" special included on previous edition.

Retail will be a mere $19.95.

Artisan totally missed the boat here.
Not in terms of extras, but with what they called this new edition.

Instead of the boring "Ultimate Edtion",
It would have been sweet had it been called:

"The Extra Dirty Edition"

I'm not even considering single dipping... :)

YES!!!! "She's like the wind" in DTS!!!!

F-ck. I bought the Region 2 single disc just two months ago... Now I have to buy this one, which comes out the same month as the new Alien box set which I have for pre-order, plus the Alias season 2 box set... and I don't even have a job... :eek:

Hope I win the lottery or something. :/

My Best Buy already had this available a couple weeks early. Located right next to the old one for $14.99.

what? was Patrick Swayze too busy working at the pet store to be interviewed..?

sheesh that pisses me off.

Only because its so true :lol:

I think I can live with the single-DVD edition I already have - (same commentary, and it includes the concert which runs well over an hour) - not worth the ugrade to me.

Yeah, we have a box of these sitting on a shelf in the back. I didn't put them out cuz the box clearly lists the street date as "12/9/03". Kinda strange that we got them 4 weeks in advance.

K

who cares

Is the concert just fluff or is it worthwhile?

...about your :crap:? Not one person..

I care.
I care alot.
This is my wife's favorite movie. So yes I care.
I care about the 6.1 sound.
I care about the anamorphic tranfer.
I care about the extras.
I care about the price.
I care about the release date.
And I care about thread crappers.

I think I'm one of the few people who hasnt seen this movie.

Sorry about that. I didn't mean to :crap: . I should've mentioned I hate this movie because my sister watched it at least twice a day when we were younger and I had to sit through this because I was in a leg cast........not a fond memory. Ironically, My wife loves this movie and SHE will probably go and buy it. :yack:
