"The first of the two re-edited scenes I found occurs at app. 1:04, when Hanna returns from a crime scene to the restaurant where Justine is waiting for him alone. Justine’s speech that begins “You don’t live with me” has been re-edited, using what appears to be different takes, different cuts and a slight modification to the dialogue. What clued me in was simple: The scene had always stuck out as somewhat awkward in an otherwise polished and assured film. On this viewing, it seemed to flow much better than I remembered. A comparison with the DVD revealed why.
The second example occurs at app. 1:18:35, when Hanna is giving the full intimidation treatment to the sleazy Vegas liquor salesman played by Hank Azaria. Hanna’s dialogue has been slightly shortened, without actually shortening the scene. The net effect is to provide an additional moment to display the reaction on Azaria’s face. It’s priceless. (“Who the hell is this lunatic?” he seems to be thinking.)
There are undoubtedly other examples that flew right by me, because the work has been done so skillfully and the changes are so intelligently tailored to the film in its current form. The film was rushed during editing to meet a release date, which is why it has four credited editors. Based on these examples, it appears that what’s been done is not so much revisionism as clean-up."

This is looking more like an immediate than a delayed purchase right about now!

I don't know how exactly, but I have never seen Heat, not a single time. I think watching it on BD would be the perfect way to experience it for the first time here pretty soon.

Heat is one of the best films of the 90's. Mine shipped from Amazon, hopefully should be waiting for me at home this evening.

I'm not sure how I've gone so long without ever watching it. I guess my search for the best price begins now.
EDIT:
It looks like Amazon is likely the best choice, so here we go.

Actually, I don't remember the prostitute saying anything which would shock, or reveal her to be under age. And I saw the movie twice in the theatre.

Currently seeing it. Looks great. Blues really pop out well. Damn fine image quality. And holy fuck does that shootout look soooo much better. I always assumed it was just me but some parts of it looked a bit soft oh but not with the Blu. It's all clean HD image. Damn. Again the shootout scared the shit out of me. Didn't expect the gunshots to be that powerful as compared to the DVD. Oh was I wrong....great Blu.

I have to admit, I was a little disappointed with the sound. During the LA shoot out there was no active soundfield. No rears what so ever. Everything was frontloaded. However the surrounds were active duing the final hunt at the airport. Still the movie looked great, can't complain about that.

I had no idea this was even out. I just ordered Leon on Amazon and Heat popped up as others have ordered this. That will make for a heck of a double feature for Thursday.

Been waiting for this one in the BD treatment.

I thought it sounded great, and yes you can hear those shells hit the ground, but someone on here said otherwise. I believe he had surround so he'd have a better opinion on it than I would.

The sound is awesome. Don't expect it to sound like Transformers though. I think it has a very natural sound and probably pretty realistic too.
