ughh, wayyyyyyyy too high a price for a cataloge release. $19.99 msrp should be the max here

No commentary equals no purchase for me initially. It'll have to be a bargain bin buy to replace my beloved DVD with commentary. I don't know but this is one movie where the commentary is essential. Plus you get Arnold sitting back smoking some cigars like he was in the room with you.

One word:

Awe-some.

Day one.

Watch Best Buy not have it.

Just watched this a couple of nights ago; first time on the projector. The video was tolerable, but man was the audio brutal. Sounded tinny and broken (my very technical terms

). Can't wait for an upgrade.

No commentary sucks (if true). I guess I'll have to hold onto my DVD to make a two-pack as well.

For some reasons, I skipped the DVDs, I only have them on VHS, which means I haven't watched them in ages. Can't wait!

Same here. A lot of people love Olivia D'Abo, but Grace Jones is why I love the movie. I saw the movie as a kid and it turned me into a fan and I still love her today. Lady Gaga has ripped everything off from Grace if you ask me.

So this version is a different version than John Milius's Director's Cut from 2000?

DaViD Boulet · 05-12-2011, 10:12 PM

along these lines, also looking forward to an eventual Beastmaster blu-ray...
