Pretty Woman 15th Anv.

Well, I was looking at the cover box for the new Beaches DVD coming out next Tuesday, and well, the insert fell from the box, when I picked it up, I notice that there was a image of Pretty Woman, but the letters were in Gold....an because I own the old version, I knew something was wrong, after looking closely, I saw it say: 15 Anniversary

I stoled the insert......and made a copy.



Close Up:


So I know this hasn't been annouce, and in case there is another post, I'm sorry, I did a search and found nothing....

Yeah, they're doing it to coincide with the sequel.

Anyway, I do remember reading about this a couple of weeks or so ago.

I don't know if it's been officially announced, but it's been up at Amazon for several weeks:

I love Pretty Woman, but they would have to add A LOT to get me to upgrade from my..10th Anniversary Edition. I don't see the point of this.

Edited to Add: That link to the thread to the faux Pretty Woman sequel totally got me. Scared me even. BURN on me. Good form.

Anamorphic and hopefully/probably including the theatrical cut.

I think this is great. The 10th Anniversary Edition was okay, but the print was not in the best shape, and the video was not anamorphically enhanced. Hopefully, both issues will be corrected in this re-release. Carry over the good extras from the current disc, add some new ones, and it should be a great new edition. A definitive one to last. I definitely support this.

A sure sign that it's time to introduce HD-DVD? When the studio has triple-dipped on Pretty Woman...

That's the first thing that occurred to me - I sincerely hope they include the theatrical cut, as I REALLY dislike the b-roll footage they cut into the theatrical version on both the widescreen and 10th anniversary editions (both prior editions look exactly the same to me, footage-wise). Including the theatrical cut is pretty much the only way to get me to buy this for the third time (well, technically columbia house let me swap the widescreen edition for 10th anniversary edition at no cost, but still, I've possessed both prior versions).

What exactly is this b-roll footage you are talking about? Pretty Woman is one of three dvds I have that are non-anamorphic. I would upgrade if they made it anamorphic widescreen

Yes I definitely prefer the Theatrical Edition. The Director's cut was full of non- essential dribble that significantly slowed the pace of the film to me!!

I will definitely buy this one if it's the Theatrical and anamorphic! I do hope they can find some suppliments for it also!!

So you stole the insert just so you could show everyone at DVDTalk?

Yep, I have the R2 from England which is anamorphic and has 5.1 track. However since it's PAL and I can't stomach the speedup, I have to play it through WinDVD on my HTPC which corrects the pitch automatcilly, but won't output the digital tracks in that mode. So hopefully, this new R1 will have the 5.1 track so I can have both upgrades.

It'll have to be a really nice looking transfer to get me to double dip. Including the theatrical cut would've helped.

This is one of the few romance movies I can actually tolerate; I'll get it for my wife. The current version is pretty poor with the non-anamorphic transfer.
