Basic Instinct : Ultimate Edition ----> 3/14/06
In the spirit of unnecesary double dippings, Lionsgates is releasing Basic Instinct : Ultimate Edition on March 14th, according to davisdvd.com . This time is has a new anamorphic widescreen transfer, so maybe it isn't as bad as Sony's trend in double dipping. More info here:

Ummm...where in that article does it stated a "new" anamorphic transfer? It sounds like the previous uncut version.
Either way, I won't be buying this again until HD. I think it's a Blu-ray release.

I have the Icepick version and a copy of the old release with the unintentionally hilarious DVS track. I think I'm done for now.

They really need a trivia track on this.
A bubble with an arrow points to Mrs. Stone's furry friend with the text, "TRIVIA TIME: Sharon Stone was not wearing any underwear in this scene."

Since the unrated SE is out of print from the looks of it(it's not listed on many sites for example). I would definitely get this upcoming release if you don't own the film already. Though make sure it is in the correct aspect ratio before hand!
And for the record,the copies at Target and Wal-Mart for $5 is the R rated version. So that is best left avoided for obvious reasons
