Face/Off SE! 7/12
 
Finally, next July we'll get a Face/Off SE!

From The Digital Bits:

We've just gotten the following information from both industry and retail sources. I want to emphasize that this is very tentative and is absolutely subject to change. Also none of the dates you're about to see are officially announced. That said, here's a tentative list of major titles and special editions Paramount is working on for the first half of 2005. Some good stuff here...

2/1 - Cheers: The Complete Fourth Season, Frasier: The Complete Fifth Season, Taxi: The Complete Second Season

2/8 - America's Next Top Model: Cycle 1, 7th Heaven: The Complete Second Season

2/22 - Alfie

3/1 - South Park: The Complete Fifth Season, The Brady Bunch: The Complete First Season

3/15 - Star Trek: First Contact - SCE, Hogan's Heroes: The Complete First Season, Survivor: The Australian Outback

3/29 - Team America: World Police

4/19 - Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events

5/3 - Star Trek: Enterprise - Season One, Touched by an Angel: The Complete Second Season

5/10 - The Longest Yard: SCE

5/14 - The Daily Show with John Stewart: Season One

5/17 - Coach Carter, Island in the Sky: SCE, The High and the Mighty: SCE

6/14 - War of the Worlds: SCE

7/12 - Face/Off: SCE

Once again, keep in mind that none of this is set in stone and until it's official, it's not official. Stay tuned...

Still waiting for South Park: BLU to get an SE, but Face/Off definitely deserves the SE (as the best film Woo has done in Hollywood). :banana:

Face/Off is an awsome movie I'm excited for a special edition!

Hopefully Titanic gets a decent DVD treatment and gets released next year sometime. I'd love an audio commentry from James Cameron.

is that the movie with the birds flying around in slow motion, and two guys pointing guns in each others faces from only a foot or two away?
isn't there a big scene set in a church?
or am i confusing that with another movie-

There are similar images/scenes in "The Killer", a far superior film he did in hk back in 89, but yes, that definitely happens in Face/Off.

The Daily Show is being released on DVD? What is that like 65 episodes?

eau 11-12-04 03:54 AM

Darn! 8 months of waiting!

QuiGonJosh 11-12-04 06:24 AM

my favorite US Woo flick is Hard Target. Face/Off is awesome though!

marty888 11-12-04 06:46 AM

For me the good stuff is all in May, June & July!

Let's hope it all happens.

Fantastic news! I hope it will be the Director's Cut of the movie (which I saw at a test screening and was superior to the theatrical cut, IMO).

:up:

Who said that was the director's cut and what was different?

Peach. I could eat a peach for hours.

Haven't heard whether or not it was the director's cut (I am just hoping it is). It was roughly 20 minutes longer. I don't recall specific scenes as it's been several years since I've seen either version, but I do recall liking the director's cut more than the theatrical cut.

The list that is currently on the Digital Bits ends with 5/3 - Enterprise Season 1. There is no mention of Touched by an Angel, Longest Yard, Daily Show, Face/Off, or any of the other ones that you mentioned after Enterprise.

Where did you get the rest of those dates?

By the way, you have The Daily Show with John Stewart: Season One coming out on 5/14. That's a Saturday.

EDIT - Ok, I just read my post and I sound like an asshole. I'm not calling you a liar, I'm just stating that as of right now, the Digital Bits doesn't have that full list that you have.

Nice! A director's cut of Face Off ??

Sa-weetness.....

Bacon 11-12-04 03:09 PM

:up: GREAT MOVIE

Hopefuly we'll see an SE of Coming to America and 48Hrs but I'm not holding my breath

PopcornTreeCt 11-12-04 03:21 PM

chowchris13 11-12-04 03:26 PM

This movie is full of great one-liners. :up:

Fairly quick turnaround on Lemony as it doesn't even hit theaters till 12/17. I guess Paramount is expecting it to flop.

Not necessarily, five months is a pretty standard theatrical to dvd timeframe.

On the face/off SE - i hope the additions are substantial and not just a few featurettes... New transfer, deleted scenes and commentary would be nice. I'm hanging on to the current version until this thing is reviewed.

Doniphon 11-12-04 05:27 PM

High & The Mighty! Whoohoo! Finally.
