suhweeet, glad I held off from buying the bare bones disk

Gator MacReady · 01-24-2005, 09:28 PM

No doubt the DVD will be 1.85:1. But it was made in Super-35 and I hear that initial screenings in the cinema were 2.35:1

jonesmm9 · 01-24-2005, 09:37 PM

I knew it. I'm surrounded by assholes!

Monrozombi · 01-24-2005, 09:46 PM

Same here.

***SeanL*** · 01-24-2005, 11:37 PM

I have the original release, but if the extras are well done then I'll pick this one up for sure.

manicsounds · 01-25-2005, 01:08 AM

double dip for me.
bought the 1 disc version dirt cheap so no big deal.

trespoochies · 01-25-2005, 01:15 AM

Same here. Considering I bought the barebones one for $4.99 about 3 years ago, I don't mind paying for this spiffy new edition.

videoworx · 01-25-2005, 02:08 AM

this is AWESOME news...through events I can't explain, this movie is number on my daughter's list of awesomest movies...and her birthday is in May...life is good.

Double dipping on this is well worth a raspberry.

incubus0 · 01-25-2005, 03:07 AM

FINALLY

I've had the non-anamorphic version in my hand so many times, glad I always put it back.

mtcarmel00 · 01-25-2005, 08:23 AM

One of my favorite movies ever, so I have no problem double-dipping. I think the cover looks so much better than the bare-bones release.

clemato · 01-25-2005, 02:45 PM

This is great news! Very nice extras. Long overdue.

I hope this revenue will get High Anxiety and Robin Hood MIT released, already.

aedavela · 01-25-2005, 03:10 PM

I think I could be talked into a double dip.

uujb · 01-25-2005, 03:29 PM

I've been soooo tempted to get the bare bones edition! I'm glad I didn't pick it up

manicsounds · 01-25-2005, 03:59 PM

High Anxiety is coming out soon, dont worry.
Mel Brooks On DVD

MJZ · 01-26-2005, 09:43 AM

I've come close to buying the original release a few times, but never did, even when I found it cheap, and now there's going to be an SE.

optimalautobot · 01-28-2005, 10:08 AM

I hope the lame Brook's commentary isn't recycled.

Time to get rid of that non-anamorphic copy!

Thanks manic!

You reminded that earlier in the week I had seen an advertisement in Empire (UK) magazine for a 20th Century Fox box set that was released there on October 25, 2004.

projecteightysix · 01-29-2005, 03:00 AM

will there be an american release of that?

Menu shots from R2 release. It looks like they got an extra commentary.

Bananaslug79 · 04-12-2005, 05:15 PM

I might pick this up if indeed the commentary is improved. I was shocked to hear that Mel really isn't much of a speaker, at least when he's talking about Spaceballs.

**SilentBob** · 04-13-2005, 06:40 AM

IGN DVD.com already has a dvd review up at the site. Great improvement over the original print release with some good extras included. Sadly no new audio commentary was done for the film.

John Yaya · 04-13-2005, 08:20 PM

Oh Noooo.. Not again!!

I never got the first DVD release, so I'll certainly be picking this one up
