Blade: Trinity - EXTREME Version?

I just picked up Blade: Trinity here (in Canada). No regular cut releases to be seen, just "Extreme Version"

ON the back:

"Extreme version of the film - contains 10 Minutes of More Action!"

Running time: Approx 2hr 03 min

Is this the same as the US Unrated Disc?

As far as Walmart goes, they should have that version. Never heard of an Extreme Version...

because i don't think they have a such thing as the "Unrated" rating in Canada, thus the name change.

True, they are all given a rating, but

Chronicles of Riddick
Pitch Black
Eurotrip

to name a few, still say "Unrated" on the cover, yet have a canadian rating. Wonder why New Line decided to change it.

Don't know, but maybe New Line hasn't decided to invade [Canada] yet.

Friend of mine who lives same town as me says he got one called the "extreem edition".

Weird. But Canada gets titles called Unrated. So I don't know why the diff name this time. Maybe there's french/english on the DVD case.

Ending different than theatrical version?

I know many disliked this movie, but if I recall correctly, at the end of the theatrical release, the body of Blade morphed back into Drake when the autopsy was about to be performed. In the unrated region 1 DVD, Blade wakes up from the table and flattens everyone in the room.

Was the "morph" removed? My understanding is Drake taking the "form" of Blade as he died was his final gift to Blade out of his honor and respect for him.


Please correct me if I am wrong. Thanks...

My only problem: They should have removed the dialogue from Drake prior to that scene. With it intact, his "gift" makes no sense.

Of course, this is Alliance Atlantis we're talking about. They even put a little "Version Extréme" underneath "Extreme Version" on the cover.

Sigh...

in all honesty I couldn't tell what the extra 10 minutes of footage was... the movie still sucked, IMO.

that's the only part of the cover that is bilingual and that's in really really small font . "Blade Trinity" is only in English.
