I'm curious as to why the director's cut was made with such a limited and exclusive run. As for the scenes in question, that they cut out? I have to wonder what the big deal was.
Warner Home Video must die!
- Thread starter The Borgified Corpse
- Start date
well, that's a dumb policy. I love extras, but can't afford an upgrade to blu ray anytime soon (although I would love too.)
Anyway, Glad the recent Watchmen ultimate cut was released intact.

Yes, yes, you're absolutely right, especially since I probably won't ever pick up the movie anyways. I just like to complain.Google, Emh, Google.
Same here. THe extended LOTR DVDs have set the standard as far as I'm concerned. They have a complete set of commentaries but also a through set of documentaries about the history of Tolkien and other about making the films. That's why I love DVDs so much - you get a great picture and sound but also plenty of extra information. Of course some are much better than others.
Gotta hate that trend. It's not worth the jump in expense for me. Blu-Ray players are still a significant factor more expensive as are the discs themselves. While a the quality of the Blu-Ray feature is still higher, it's not enough better than my upconverting player to merit that extra expense.The Rated R cut of Terminator Salvation is ONLY on Blu-Ray?! What the #$%# is that!!!

I love the extra's, I justrecently baught a PS3 and my first blue ray's were Star Trek and BSG: The Plan. I purposely buy movies that have more than one disk.I was disapointed with POTC: Dead Mans Chest extra's or lack there of. Blue Ray is totally cool, but I only plan on spending money on blue ray's that have a lot of effects. I'm not going to get everything blue ray, unless it's the same price as dvd. One disk movies are just not worth it to me, and are boring.
Could be worse. The Blu-Ray version of Live Free Or Die Hard is only the theatrical cut (with Bruce's swearing deleted). If you want the extended cut, complete with yippi ki yay motherfucker, you have to get the standard DVD.
I'm hard of hearing, so I always find it annoying when there's no English Subtitles/Captions on the DVD, but there's several different foreign languages on them.
The only Blu-Rays I will refuse to buy are the upcoming LOTR releases, which will be the theatrical cuts only. 
Apparently Peter Jackson's holding all the extended cuts until The Hobbit makes it to BR. So until then I'll stick with the standard versions. There's just too much new material on the LOTR extended cuts to give that all up for Blu-Ray (unlike the Trek films, which don't have a whole lot in the extended cuts).

QFT. That is ridiculous.
quite frickin' true
Actually, it usually means "quoted for truth." Though, your version does pop up occasionally.
Ah, right. Well, thanks, now I feel like I should have actually known that...URG. In any case, I love DVDs and the like as much as the next person, but damn it I get annoyed at new versions and releases. For instance, theres some season sets I see, I don't know how wide spread it is, where the cases look as if it's a single discs, but theres several of them inside. I want to get those, because they take up less room, and some I already have but in bigger cases ><
Actually here's something to irritate you even more: the total time of the film that has been cut is confirmed as being over 45 minutes. Included in the filmed cuts were:
- The entire Hybrid subplot (Skynet is really a collection of human/machine hybrids similar to Marcus).
- John Connor confronts the Resistance about the T-800s and Ashdown taunting him about Kyle Reese. (part of his is restored on the Director's Cut and has the scenes of Ashdown holding the gun to Connor's head telling him he could pull the trigger and change history and there was nothing that could be done about it).
- An expanded Connor Vs. The Terminator (cut due to CGI concerns).
- Marcus' death (done so that they could bring Sam Worthington back in a future film).
- Kyle getting the Sarah Connor Photo.

That's a lot of good stuff.

I thought I remembered some photo with Helena Bonham Carter as a hybrid.
