That trailer makes the movie look like something I'd actually want to see.

Was never really a fan of Blade Runner. I guess I need to watch it a few more times, now perhaps it'll be the director's cut.

Re: New Blade Runner DVD
 

so.... how much longer do I have to wait for the "Definitive Version" of the film?

I'm freakin turning blue (b/c I've been holding my breath so long)

Re: New Blade Runner DVD
 

They keep mentioning fall with a potential limited theatrical release. Seems to be pretty firm as it's getting mentioned in upcoming WB DVD releases now too. I'd expect something to be announced at the Comicon in San Diego this year.

A quote from Ridley stated that they were opting to try and get it into Venice film festival per this quote from Ridley in Total Film:

RS : It's finished. a five disc set in a Deckard briefcase comes out in the autumn. We've got a reconformed, state of the art digital print, which we haven't really had for about 15 years. It'll probably be shown at the Venice Film Festival.

ffs i hate the way films have to be released to set dates, if its finished press it up and ship it out to the stores you mofo's its not hard people will buy it, you don't need to market it, and if you do, do it after we have it....

:mad:

its like woolworths near me had the lord of the rings box sets on their shelves for a week behind their counter but couldn't sell them to anyone... i know why they do it but its bollox

Re: New Blade Runner DVD
 

i hope it's good.

will there not be a way to get the Final Cut without buying the whole deluxe suitcase holiday gift package?

Re: New Blade Runner DVD
 

its called marketing. If you release something in the height of summer then everyone's on holiday and no-one notices. If you re-release it at a film festival after the summer then you get a lot more publicity and... sales.

Besides, the movie is a dark and wet and moody thing and it needs crap weather. Its not a summer blockbuster...

Re: New Blade Runner DVD
 

shit i know, i work in marketing, but it still sucks... i just want this NOW!

i avoided buying the last dvd release of Bladerunner waiting for this...

i'm just impatient...

Re: New Blade Runner DVD
 

i heard that they were refilming the scenes where Zhora runs through the glass and is shot a few years ago for the final cut. so, it might be a really different version. but i have both the international cut and the director's cut on VHS tape. one time i got to see a deleted scene where deckard is visiting the interviewer that Leon shot in the hospital. it was online somewhere, i could find it again.
