Great news. I've never seen the movie, but I have heard a lot of good about it. The 3-disc version was always on my wish list but I never got around to it. I'll grab this one up instead.

Almost pick up the OOP single copy at Cirtuit City couple of years ago. I might pick this one up. Thank for the link.

So is there a difference between this and the 3 Disc Canadian Version film wise?

TomOpus 05-23-08 09:15 PM

I can't believe I've had the R1 for almost 6 years. I, too, was close to getting the 3-disc set. I probably won't upgrade but this is good news for those that didn't pick it up the first time. It's a cool flick.

I'm willing to bet it'll be very similar to the 1 disc R1 release. No details yet but we'll see.

canaryfarmer 05-23-08 09:22 PM

The 3-disc Canadian version had worse picture quality than the 1-disc US, so as long as the PQ doesn't get any worse, this should be a home run set.

mr. b_dvd 05-24-08 02:21 AM

Ah crap, I just bought the Canadian 3disc set off EBay, and I got it in the mail this week. It was a sealed copy, and it has been on my wish list for as long as I can remember. I have the R1 single disc, and I liked this movie enough to want to get the 3disc set. I'll watch it and see if the picture quality is as bad as canaryfarmer says, but if this information is true, I'll probably sell off the 3disc set after watching it and pick this up when it comes out. Man, why couldn't this info. have come out just a few weeks sooner.

Geofferson 05-24-08 03:05 AM

Great news...will definitely be picking this one up. :up:

starseed1981 05-24-08 08:46 AM

Awesome.

mike2 05-24-08 10:09 AM

Any word on blu-ray? I've always wanted to see this.

From what I remember, the PQ was the only hit against the Canadian set. Lots of extras and a killer DTS track really enhanced getting it. Doesn't look like this new release has that DTS track :(

Yeah same here. I just got mine 2 months ago.

Cosmic Bus 05-24-08 11:06 AM

...And no high-def version, despite there being an HD transfer readily available. Nice to see that Universal's lack of sense lives on. :|

Great, if they deign to include English subtitles this time. I've got the Canadian set and will not get the new US set. I'd jump all over a BD.

asianxcore 05-25-08 01:16 AM

Held off on buying this movie for too long. Like others it has been on my wishlist for the longest time.

Let's hope it has all the extras from the Canadian Edition and cleaned up PQ :)

I agree, they are completely missing the ball here - boooo Universal, you lost a sale - off to buy the import.

As one noted, the Canadian version has a DTS track that is brain assaultive - to say it is aggressive is an understatement.

Sure there is.

Hoping we get subbed commentaries.

toddly6666 05-29-08 08:04 AM

What's the difference between the director's cut and theatrical cut?

toddly6666 05-29-08 08:09 PM

Is this considered an "extended cut" or a "director's cut"?

tylergfoster 05-29-08 08:11 PM

I am pretty sure it's a "Director's Cut". I think it was just edited on American shores by Universal.

JOE29 05-30-08 11:55 AM

What do you mean by edited? Is it censored? I'm interested in getting this, but if it's censored i'll pass it by.
