I don't know if I'll upgrade. I love the film, and I want the extras, but as Noir said, always assume the worst with MGM.

So any info on how this compares visually to the last blu-ray?

Sadly, there's no way it's a different transfer. If it is, I'll run out like a mad man and snap it up, but I'd probably have a heart attack from shock first.

Guy on the Blu-Ray forums says the review will be up today. He says it's probably the same transfer but seems to indicate that the problems have been worked on? I didn't realize there was anything wrong with the last release.

I just picked this up at Wal-Mart and all the extras are on the Blu-Ray, according to the packaging (it looks like the DVD included is the original-original, barebones DVD).

The Blu-Ray.com review remains MIA.

How much was it at Walmart?? Both my Target and Best Buy didn't have any copies in stock yesterday.

Cover says:

- 3 Commentaries: Director Martin Scorsese and Editor Thelma Schoonmaker, Cast & Crew, Storytellers
- 4 New Featurettes: Marty & Bobby; Raging Bull: Reflections on a Classic; Remembering Jake; Marty on Film
- Cathy Moriarty on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, March 27, 1981
- Raging Bull: Fight Night - 4-Part Feature-Length Documentary
- The Bronx Bull - Behind-the-Scenes Featurette
- De Niro vs. La Motta - Shot-by-Shot Comparison in the Ring
- La Motta Defends Title - Vintage Newsreel Footage

EDIT: A check of DVDEmpire's back cover for the "Collector's Edition" DVD says this includes everything, but neither make any mention of the trailer. However, the very old MGM release had the trailer. I'm guessing that release was a flipper. If the Fox/MGM single-disc was just the WS side of the flipper, then the trailer is on the DVD (although, the packaging doesn't mention it).

I don't even see the stripe in the cap he provided. Also, he says the trailer's on the disc, in 1080p to boot.

The new extras sound mildly interesting, but not enough for me to double-dip.

I remember that stripe on the DVD. I even exchanged a copy of it and the new one I got still had it. Nice to hear it's less visible this time around, but I'd like to know what the story behind it is.

The Blu-Ray.com critic is dismissive of that possibility. *shrug*

so what? are they using exact same machine as last time. THE SAME UNIT to clean it up? It's probably the negative.

So, in essence, 47 minutes of new featurettes and an identical transfer.

= Pass. I have both the special edition dvd set and the original BD release so a double dip is not likely going to happen.
