Holy crap was Batty's intro in the storyboards cool- climbing out of a mass-grave of replicants!?!?!?!!
DD's is so long, it'll take me another day or so to finish...

Yeah, that was cool. Another grrovy featurette is the deleted and alternate scenes on disk 4. It's mostly alternate takes, with just the hospitol scenes added back in, but with the narration that Scott and People's had written, cut together chronilogically, with some voiceover from the regular movie to fill the gaps. It comes off as a 45 minute version of the film, as if Deckard was re-telling the story later... leaving some things out, adding some inconsequential details and such. Pretty cool.

Watched it last night. Loved it - but I already did. I prefer the non-narrated version, so it was really just a cleaned up version of what I already liked. But well worth the purchase.

I watched that and the international cut- was it just me, or did the picture on the Final Cut look just a little softer than the archived ones? The colour was definitely more vibrant though, and it was way more smoothly edited than the '92 cut.

Did I see what I saw Chrisisall

Havn't watched any of the archival cuts, yet. Probably do that over the Christmas break (15 days off, starting in 2 hours - YEAH!).

Heh heh... the upside of teaching.

Oh, and this is a complete non sequiter, but since we seem to be the only ones in here....

Months ago, the topic of Solaris came up, and I had not seen it. Finally did, partially on your recomendation -

LOVED IT!

Thatisall....

Holy freakin' crap- the extras on the BR 4 disk set DO NOT disappoint!!!!!
The deleted scenes with the Ford narration was worth the price ALONE!!!!
This is THE best DVD of the year!!!!! (just like Rolling Stone said)

Pig in doo Chrisisall
