Legends of the Fall - Deluxe Edition - November 29th

Columbia Tristar Home Entertainment has kindly sent over menu shots from a new deluxe edition of Legends of the Fall which stars Brad Pitt, Aidan Quinn, Henry Thomas, Julia Ormond, Tanto Cardinal and Anthony Hopkins. This single-disc special edition will be available to own from the 29th November this year, and should retail at around $19.94. I'm afraid the full specs have yet to be released, although the menu shots below do confirm the addition of audio commentaries, deleted scenes, a production design featurette, another 'original' featurette, filmographies, isolated score highlights and some film previews.

The Special Edition had all of these features. If this release does not have a new transfer or the Superbit transfer then what is the point?

Hey, don't complain guys. The more copies you have of this movie, the more likely you're going to get lucky the next time you have a gal over.

Exactly!

Might simply be a new promotion and price level, rather than anything new as far as the DVD itself.

It just so happens that these two Brad Pitt flicks are getting SE's the same day Mr. & Mrs. Smith comes out on DVD. Doubt it's coincidence.

Yeah, definitly a tie in with Mr. and Mrs. Smith, easily.

I haven't picked up Legends Of The Fall on dvd or A River Runs Through It Yet on dvd, so I will without a doubt hold off until these get released.

I would like to say that these releases are nice, but not needed at all. If only the studios would focus on marketing good films that have yet to be released on dvd, would make it all a whole lot more interesting.

Instead of seeing movies that have been released on dvd more than twice pop up again. Crazy if you ask me.

Well. I assume you bought yours from BB. You can take it back to the store now and wait till either the DE or the final specs comes out. If it is not what you want, then go back and buy the superbit. The $9.99 deal at BB runs until the end of the year anyway.

yeah the "lastest" version has commentaries, deleted scenes and has a pretty good transfer. I love this movie to death but I doubt very much I will upgrade...

As someone else said, what's the point???

What upsets me is they keep ignoring films that need a Special Edition release (Bram Stoker's Dracula!!!!) and instead keep rereleasing the same titles over and over (Jumanji, ec.)

Ahh, when Brad Pitt was a good actor and not the bloated 'Clooney-ite' he has become.

Now they all ring up $9.99 each at the register. My local BB even put them in a single area with a couple of simple flyers advertising SB for $9.99.
