[Daubt]

rdered.

 

[Lord Vader]

Aye, went with this version. Order is in!

 

[Bastiensmum]

Ordered, but they have charged £1.99 for delivery! Not sure why as normally I do not have to pay delivery as I am an RC member.

 

[samdavies]

This release is UK only for anyone who's wondering. There will not be a US release from arrow. This applies to both steelbook editions, both amaray limited edition variants and any subsequent standard amaray releases.

That's exactly what I'm doing, mixing the two!

I still have the German DVD (it’s not even anamorphic). If I remember correctly there was a choice of the US ‘flipper’ disc where the movie was split over two sides, and the UK version that was censored…(the German version has the f bomb and little to no editing).

‘the film was cut to get a PG rating in the first place in the UK. At the start of the film, some 14 seconds were chopped out, and the F-bomb uttered by Christian Slater removed. The opening sequence got cut further for the subsequent video release, and more seconds were taken out for a video reissue in 1995.’

Again if I remember rightly, the extended version, with a darker satanic tone and and a scribe that can talk after having his tongue cut out, was the default blu ray release for some time.

I hope arrow take good care of this. I wouldn’t want a repeat of the 12 Monkeys 4K.


Oh and it was the second highest grossing movie of 1991, behind Terminator 2. It opened in the top spot in July, then Terminator 2 arrived, but RH,POT returned to the top spot in the 12th week of release.

Yes it’s a silly film, but Brian Blessed, Alan Rickman, Morgan Freeman, Christian Slater, it’s a guilty pleasure for me. I’m not sure if I need a £40 version though…hmm…

Although its weirdly out of place with the tone of the rest of the film, I love the satanic stuff in the extended cut. This film was always noted for having a darker edge at times for a family blockbuster but the extended cut takes it to a whole other level lol. The scribe gaffe was pretty amusing though

You guys have too much money, lol.

You guys have too much money, lol.

Can just sell the amaray and discs to cover the price of the steelbook so not that much more.

It's a idea, I do like the standard deluxe better but do we know what's on the back of the hard case and are they the same size?

Definitely same size. No rear artwork reveal yet.
