I'd be double dipping, but my current one is scratched - so I can justify it.

I agree as well..it seens the SE also comes with english captioning...lets hope it works this time. I'll upgrade just for that..I probably sell the other one.

Looks like it has the commentary and more. You can see at dvdempire for the back cover.

It's cheap and I didn't pick up the previous release, so I'll be getting this next week.

i'll snag it, sell my old one for a few bucks.

While this may have seemed like an odd title to go back and revisit, the earlier disc kind of suffered from being a relatively early release and there was definitely some room for improvement. The new Dolby EX and DTS-ES tracks are really incredible and the features are much meatier this time around. The menus are also some of the best I've seen in a while (there's even a few surprises in the menus!). And for the record, the new SE does have English Captions along with Spanish subtitles. Trust me that every inch of the DVD-9 was used this time around. It's almost an hour and a half of video extras plus the director's commentary. Hope you like it :)

I think DDD has it for $10.69 w/ free shipping...not bad

Man! I hate it when this happens. I buy a movie and when I think they will not be out with the special edition. I go ahead and buy it and now i have to sell my old one and get this one. This is why I have been collecting shows more than movies. It's part of the reason. I wait most of them out till later. Which is great because I haven't bought "Deep Impact" yet and now they are coming out with a special edition for it. If only they will release special editions for The Faculty and Face/Off... I will be set.

BTW Love the cover art

I think the DTS-ES soundtrack has been dropped from the Canadian SE release to accommodate a French 5.1 soundtrack. This is the same crap they pulled with The Running Man SE.

DonnachaOne 08-14-04 12:31 AM

Hahaha, poor Canadians... still, it's not like there's a death squad stopping them ordering the dts version if they want to.

I LOVE the new packaging.

Now, how is the dts? Given the nature of the film, I'm expecting tons of swirly surround effects... will I be disappointed?

I would think that "16:9 Fullscreen Version" means the same thing as "16:9 Anamorphic Version" since a "16:9 Fullscreen" is 1.78:1 -- yes?

A little confusing, but not necessarily incorrect.

I actually produced two of the new features for the disc: the hypnosis and paranormal featurettes. I hope you guys like them.
