    So is the actual movie any different to the directors cut or is the quality of it just improved (and some extra extras etc.)?

    I believe that it's another cut. I remember a few years ago seeing an excelent documentary (Which was rumoured to be on this package) on channel 4. It showed a couple of extra scenes including one where Deckard goes and visits the first bladerunner, who gets shot at the start, in hospital. There's supposed to be a Ridley Scott commentary too. He said a couple of years ago that he recorded a commentary for the new cut. I doubt there'll be a Harrison Ford one though as he hated the film.

    It's a new cut. Ridley Scott wasn't happy with the original "director's cut", claiming he was rushed into releasing it. Then, when the massive rights battle came about, he didn't get a chance to rectify it. Now he has. Dunno how different it'll be though.

    This is good news....

    My much coveted over DVD of the directors cut won't be as coveted over as much anymore...

    From what I heard he hated the voice-over he was made record, which was why he did a bad job of it hopng the studio would drop it. Never heard anything about him not liking the film itself.
