Not really. I was making fun of wannabe. He posted the same thing in a topic I started about Kino's classic films. And he sold his Return of the Jedi DVD.

So there.

I can't add much to what FinkPish said other than this is one of the worst DVD's ever made. It doesn't even have a real menu. The only people that buy this disc are the people that don't know any better.

Or folks like me, who have never seen the film and the price is less than a rental at BBV.

The Blade Runner dvd is NOT one of the worse dvds that's ever been released, it was actually pretty good at the time. Technology moved on. Same thing for the first Batman film. I mean, it's not even a flipper(like the original discs of Goodfellas and Amadeus were). We're talking a seven(almost eight) year old disc, here. The standard today is just far higher than in the medium's infancy.

I finally relented and picked it up at Wal*Mart for $3.88.

It will have to hold me off until some miracle happens

I also got the $3.88 special.........it'll be good enough for me.......ya ya ya ya ya yaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Ok why can't warner just re-release the DC in a remastered version? With maybe comentary for Ridley scott! I need this dvd! I can live with a two disc remaster till a better version aka super deluxe 4 disc set comes out.

Ridly Scoot? I LOVE him!

Other than making fun. What is the problem with re-releasing the DC cut remastered? I thought that only the other cuts was the problem.
And by the way, english is not my native language.

There were rumours of that a few months ago, but then it fell into utter silence again.


As for Jerry Perenchio, there's a saying that goes "it's better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt". Until we hear the story from him, I'll think him quite the fool thankyouverymuch.

Well I must be a blithering idiot. I bought it from DVD Empire a few months ago since I love this film and have held off buying it for four years, assuming that an inveitable SE would be released. With the whole Jerry Pinocchio fiasco I doubt we'll see it for a while yet and this DVD, as sub-standard as it may be, will keep me going until a remastered version hits the shelves. Besdies, the current edition is better than its VHS counterpart, only just and it will fill the gap for now.

Any updates? Or any news at all on an SE?

Ive still yet to see the DC version,ive been holding strong to my point of wanting the version that i saw when i was a kid in the theatre and i have that theatrical version on vhs but i have no vcr so im starting to cave and may have to get the dvd thats available now.

I can't believe no one at the recent HTF Chat asked Warner about Blade Runner.

I know! Me neither! Why cant we please just get a remastered DC cut?

Blade Runner is completely OOP in the UK, Germany, France

It is only available Used and New at Amazon's European sites. There was rumour that a 2-disc was being released in 2005 of the DC with a new transfer, DD5.1 and the "On the Edge of BR" docu. I don't see why they couldn't also include a commentary by Scott.

Warner are obviously working on something, but who knows what or when it will be released...

WELL IT LOOKS LIKE WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR 06 FOR THIS...DAMN! i WANT THIS FILM IN MY COLLECTION BUT THE CURRENT DVD SUCKS ASS!

there's a Caps Lock key on your keyboard.

For the most part, I really have my doubts that we will see a good blade runner dvd package down the line considering all the road blocks it has infront of it.

Oh well, still got the laserdisc.

I still got a DVD of the criterion version.

Well not only does there appear to be some sort of keyboard user error with your post, but the end of the year is now June 16. Happy New Year everyone!!

I just forgot my caps. log. what's the big deal? I just meant I don't think we will see BR SE this year...damn!

HD version of Blade Runner next month.

Anyone got a good dual-layer recorder?

What station?

HDNET

Thought you were gonna have one. I'll send you a blank.
