Good news. I loved parts 1-3, thought part 4 was actually very good as well... but Saw V was the first in the series I really felt 'meh' about. However, it still remains better than most the crap that gets put out, so, I of course have to buy this. Thanks for the heads up!

Hopefully they'll release the "Director's Cut" upfront like they did with IV.

I believe Hackl said there was like 15 mins that they cut out which would be on the DVD.

15 more minutes might give this entry a little more meat on its bones.

From Wikipedia:

During an interview at the 2008 Scream Awards, David Hackl confirmed that his director's cut of Saw V (to be released on DVD in 2009), will run approximately 14 minutes longer than the theatrical cut. Hackl also stated that a number of scenes in the film would be re-ordered and arranged differently than in the theatrical cut

Count me in for 1 BD, please. Much better than Saw 4. Plus, more Julie Benz in Hi-Def please!

I have the last four on BD and will definitely be picking this up when released. I typically skip these types of movies in the theater and just wait for them to come out on Blu-ray.

The unrated cut will only be two minutes longer than the theatrical.

I'm in for the cool "limited edition" (ahem) as it'll go along with my trilogy case, but I'm still waiting for the eventual two-disc director's cut of Saw IV along with what'll be the two-disc version of this outing.

I've looked everywhere and there is no announcement of a Saw IV re-release. Even the official Saw website has no information. If you find it on sale at a reasonable price for you, I think it's okay to pick it up.

I think it'll happen, maybe at the theatrical release of Saw VI?

It's going to be weird if Lionsgate double dips on Saw V down the road for that director's cut Heckl has been talking about, but yet Saw IV will remain a single-disc set?

I wish the BD was getting the collectible packaging... but I guess it may end up being cheap and crappy.

Seriously, why do they give Blu-Ray the shaft time and time again?

Probably because they want you to buy BOTH. Or maybe because it just costs too much for both the Blu-ray disc AND the special packaging.
