Bladerunner Directors cut

berengar

Hi
this is coming out soon

http://www.play.com/DVD/DVD/HPO/3-/1060497/Blade_Runner_The_Director_Cut/Product.html

Was wondering will this also contain the original version ?
For those who have the R1 version, did that also contain the original version
as well as the DC ?

I have the directors cut version and the cover looks the exact same as the one on the link you gave ????

I have it a few years now.

I've never seen this movie.. Why don't they ever show it on fúcking TV. I think I've seen Top Gun on Sky one about seventeen times in the last six months. Or I think I've seen The Client on RTE about 30 million times in my lifetime but they wont show a film like this.. ****TARDS.. I could rent it and all but.. meh, my point is TV sucks dick

Sorry.

Sorry.

some french dude owned the rights and wouldn't let anyone have a go of the film. it wont be on TV in the next year anyway, because warner will want to make as much buck on the new DVD release before giving it out to tv stations.

I read somewhere that the new DVD will come with 3 cuts of the movie on it.

The original cinema release.
The directors cut.
And the Definitive Directors Cut. - This will also get a limited cinema release, so I've read.

I doubt if this one on play is that DVD set as the definitive directors cut isn't gonna be in cinemas till 2007.

The standard Bladerunner was on tv about fiftheen years ago.

The reason I can remember is because someone told me about the film and how I would have liked it .

ITV had the UK rights to it. I'm sure I have the 1991 version on tape somewhere.

the directors cut was released on video about 15 years ago, , you have already seen the directors cut. if you check the dvd details you'll see the release date (1992) on the webpage yo gave which indicates the VHS directors cut release.

According to Wikipedia theres four major versions;

1) Theres the original version.

2) A "directors cut" extended version that WB released in 1990.

3) A definitive directors cut released by WB in 1992 that Ridley Scott oversaw, but wasnt happy with.

4) A definitive directors cut that Scott IS happy with updated CGI etc. This was made in 2000, and won't be released untill 2007.


So is it possible to see the last one, you know, before 2007? Is it floating around anywhere, as these things generally do?

Simple test -

Q: Did the version you see have a protracted voice-over throughout?

YES: You saw the original cinema version somehow.
NO: You saw the director's cut (first run) which also includes a couple of extra bits...

think ios the link in the OP post states years of release as 1982 and 1992 so we know which ones it'll be number 3 rerelease of number 1,
ps wikipedia is maintained by fans not industry insisders so take everythinhg with a pinch of salt.
