Clerks X Question
 

So do we have a definite yet on whether everything from the first disc is on the new Clerks X disc? I'm wanting to get rid of my first one, if so...

Yes, everything is there and more.

trade or sell while you can get money for it..

SEARCH is also your friend, there's a long thread already going on

With as much stuff that is on the new 3 disc set... it should be worth the upgrade either way.

The new set does have the trailers, commentary and music videos that were on the original release.

If a makes a difference to you, it seems as though you cannot view the deleted scenes by themselves in Clerks X as you did on the first release. They are only available as part of the disc 2 cut of the film.

I think the deleted scenes have intro's by Kevin so you dont get those either on the new one.

Even if the new disc preserved everything exactly as it was on the first release, I'd still keep mine, as it's signed by Mewes.

Note that, unlike most View Askew discs, those introductions were audio only. They're pretty short, too.

They modified the audio for the main feature. Some ADR, some sfx work, if that bothers you, you might want to hold onto your original.

I'll probably sell my old one...a few deleted scenes isnt quite enough to keep both...

DDD.com finaly has it listed but it says all the discs are fool frame..

is this true or a f&^% up???

Fool frame? What the fuck is that?

Disc one is the theatrical version MATTED DOWN to 1.85:1.

Disc two is the original version in it's ORIGINAL 1.33:1 ratio.

apparently the original sundance cut is taken directly from a super vhs source, so its in full frame, but the theatrical release was intended for 1:85:1.

Digital Eyes has all 3 discs listed as full screen...is this true??? is nothing in Widescreen?? please someone relinquish my fears!!

can anyone either confirm or deny?

Heres the review from NewsAskew:

http://newsaskew.com/dvd/clerksX/

First disc is Anamorphic 1:85:1

Second disc is Full Frame...the way it was shot...

Will the clerks X bought from normal retailers also bear Smith's signature?

what do you mean also? that is only a special thing done if you buy through viewaskew. none, online or otherwise will have a sig.

No, that is an exclusive from viewaskew.com.

Im going to hang onto my first disc as its loaded with signatures:

thanks for the reply man

ill buy it from viewaskew :)

Was "Clerks" even shot with widescreen in mind?

I seem to recall that, on the commentary, Smith mentioned something to that effect, about how he didn't frame the picture to be matted, but it looked okay that way.

So having the fullframe cut doesn't seem like that big of a deal.

So, what's the final word on what is lost/different from the first release to the X release?

buy the disc. If you care enough to know whats different, then its worth it. You wont be diappointed.

I have them both. I just want to make sure I am not missing a reason to NOT get rid of the first one.

If you have them both, why not just compare? Just a thought.

I'm too lazy and don't have the time.

Plus, I figure by now someone else must have done it.

There's only one version of Clerks X. There isn't a separate FF and WS version like with some releases.

The deleted scenes are missing as a feature by themselves on the X disc, along with the commentary about why they were cut. The scenes themselves though can be seen in the Sundance cut of the film on the second disc, integrated into the film.

I have both, and haven't sold the original disc yet only because I could only get about $5 for it (if that) on eBay. I figured I'll just keep it or give it away for that money. $5 isn't even worth my time to put up the auction.
