Not sure, but the us blu ray has a running time of 105mins and this steelbook release has the run time of 100 mins ( thats what it states on amazon anyway).. so I'm thinking, this is not going to have the extended cut. :( I have it on dvd, I guess that will have to do when I get this on BD:D

It seems that the running time information (100 mins) is inaccurate either way. On the US Blu-ray the running times are:
- Theatrical Version: 1:44:12
- Extended Cut: 2:10:25

Its helpful when the retailers themselves can't get the correct information stated on their own stock :hilarious:

thanks Ranavalone for the correct run times. :thumbs:

personally I prefer the theatrical cut as its the one I grew up watching, watched the extented cut about a year ago (it didn't add anything to my viewing experience) so it'll be the theatrical cut I'll watch in the future.. :D

For what they are charging it should include both.

+1 i think for the price we pay we should get the whole package of extras plus a booklet as I'm feeling greedy.. I mean, £20 is a bit high for this kind of release, I'm hoping this may go the way cocoon did on amazon, started at around £17.99 and is down to around £12 before release.. great price:scat:
 
:ordered:



I have placed an order with amazon

Legend
Big
Vanishing Point
Speed
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
The Day the Earth Stood Still

If Zavvi have an active Discount Code I will order from them if they work out cheaper
I will possibly end up cancelling some if price does not drop more or if my bank balance not healthy enough
Except the 2 below I wont be cancelling
Big
The Day the Earth Stood Still
These 2 are must keep orders


Hopefully also the Artwork will change

I wont be ordering Rocky Horror Picture Show that Artwork is horrendous looking and I could not have it in my collection
