One of my all-time favorites as well, but I am scaried to order this because of the running times listed.
Amazon: 122 min
Sendit.com: 118 min
The Director's Cut is supposed to be 155 minutes, and I prefer to own that version. I know it says Extended Cut on the case but those listed running times suggest otherwise. What do you guess think of this?

It seems that all three versions overseas will get the Bootleg Cut. It’s very confusing as Paramount/DreamWorks owns the rights in the U.S. (which means HD-DVD only), but Sony holds the rights in most other countries (which means Blu-Ray). Also, Japan and the USA are in the same region, so if you have a U.S. Blu-Ray player, it will play the Japanese Blu-Ray! It also seems that UK release will be “all regions” and will also play on a U.S. Blu-Ray player.

I think I'll wait until we can get confirmation on the cut.

Amazon UK has great service and fast shipping. They also deduct VAT from international orders, so your price at checkout will be less than the price listed on the web site.

So I may be paying less then what Paramount would actually charge if this was released on HD DVD...nice. Looking forward to this. Time to sell my Bootleg Edition DVD Copy.

Damn. I'm psyched for this. I just ordered last night but can't wait to watch it.

Sendit.com has this a little cheaper than Amazon.uk
