Glad to see this coming out on blu finally. I noticed that there isn't any mention of the deleted scenes from the DVD though.

Glad the original cut is in there, that needed to be done with Dumb and Dumber.

Yeah, I'm glad about the original cut, too.

I always felt the theatrical version was better. But for years I've had to choose between watching the theatrical version on VHS or the extended R rated version on DVD. Not an ideal choice. But the Blu-Ray finally rectifies this.

Day one buy for me!

[blurayfriend]

Yes! Very excited this is finally coming back, the DVD has been out of print for years. Now let's hope we don't get Munsoned on the extras.

[Sky_Captain]

Wow! Check out 2014 and all these lovely catalogue titles.

Ok i tought bluray was the answer, the perfect media. I tought there was lots of space on a bluray disc. So why not load it with multiple laguages. The french version of that movie exist. The dvd was already just english audio so why repeat the same !"/$%% error on and on and on. It's been done, we have the space, we have the technology so put de damn french track on it please is that so hard. In the end it's gonna be more money in your pockets. The studio already paid to make a french track 18 years ago.

What's wrong with French subtitles?

Except that the film's native language is English, which is precisely why subtitles are largely preferred to dub tracks.

[gretzky2010]

The VHS was a pain back then but at least it had a french version for each movies. What a joke.

I don't think I've ever seen the R rated extended cut.

[ultlife2013]

This is good news! I was hoping either twilight time or criterion got it instead but this is still very good news! I will gladly get this movie.

I'm definitively not paying $17 for this. How long until it hits the $8 range?

Why do so many people make comments like this months before the movie actually comes out? While I wouldn't expect it to be less than $10 on release day (I could be wrong, but I doubt it), it will likely be lower than the current $16-$17 price. These things almost always show up with a higher price to start with and then are lower by the time they actually come out.
