Preorder @ Walmart - $15.86

So I guess it'll be the same current BLU, just packed with a DVD as well.

DC not DVD.

It will almost certainly be the same disc, so I won't double-dip just for a Digital Copy.

If, for some reason, they were to create a new disc that included the Director's Commentary from the original DVD, that alone might make me re-buy it. A new retrospective cast commentary would be amazing as well. I don't even need new bonus features or even a new transfer necessarily.

I'm fine with what I currently own, unless there's something extraordinary added to this.

Moviefan2k4 · 05-12-2011, 01:10 AM

My DVD of this film has the artwork signed by Kristy Swanson & Alan Ruck (in person, no less), so I'm fine with keeping it.

I can imagine my version of extra supplements.

I still need to pick up this film on blu, so I'll probably snag this re-release.

what a pointless re-release

Be careful on this one. Ordered from amazon and it had the new release picture on its website and i just got it and its the old one!!! After reading the description i noticed that it is the older one. They should change that picture

Same here, I know it had the new release picture when I ordered my copy. I got the 2009 Edition. I checked the website and it's gone just the 2009 version. What happen to the release?? Is it out there and I have to order it from somewhere else?

well i had a chat with amazon and they told me they would be changing the picture so i guess they went ahead and did it. because i tried twice.. If you want to try best buy the the new one is going for 9.99 this week. not sure if it will be next week but i know 100% sure it is this week. Worth a try if best buy is close to you.

I have the current release of Ferris Bueller's Day Off but I noticed something very peculiar about this movie. During the scene where Ferris, Sloan and Cameron are in the Taxi Cab and they meet up, accidentally, with Ferris' dad in anothert Taxi Cab. As Ferris' Dad is reading the paper, the headline reads "Community rallies arouond sick youth". But, if you pause the Blu-ray at the right time, you'll notice that the news story underneath the headline reads about a Chicago policeman who killed himself.

Talk about missing the flub on this one in the editing room.

Good catch. I don't so much think it's "missing a flub" so much as no one anticipating 25 years ago that people would be able to do high definition pauses on a single frame at home.

Before the explosion of home video in the second half of the '80s, and the ability to do frame-by-frame advancing, this was a very, very common practice in movies. Headline shots were usually up far too briefly for audiences to actually begin reading the articles proper. See another example at DVDBeaver for SCARFACE [1983] wherein the first line of the article shown references Tony Montana, then just becomes non sequiter jibberish after that...

That reminds me of the original Psycho where people swear they see the knife go into janet Leigh, but if you do a frame by frame viewing you can tell it's not so. I also contribute this to great movie making on Hitchcock's part though.

Does anyone know if amazon are shipping this title now with the new slip cover?
