Don't like the cover (http://www.dvdshrine.com/features/story.shtml?id=1895&cat=current) much.:( Looks a bit all over the place. Hopefully a dts soundtrack will make up for the lack of a Spielbergian commentary.:mad: :p

[Dear Mr Echo]

You're right the cover is pretty poor - they should have stuck with the poster artwork. Obviously trying to sell it all those people who didn't see it at the cinema.

Is that because those of us who did see it at the cinema won't be touching it with a barge pole?

I thought it was going to be by Warner Brothers, but i see the dreamworks logo, there and no snapper case, what does this mean for the r2 release, as we have seen with Shrek, universal are not the best when releasing a dreamworks title

I think the R2 disc is coming out on March the 25th, so there isn't much of a gap between R1 and R2.

I can't wait for this. I was totally blown away in the cinema. Why no mention of Chris Cunningham's work? They could have at least included the 'All Is Full Of Love' Bjork video.

Hey - it beats paying people! ;)

I saw it at the Cinema, and thought it was very good.

Yes, an excellent and powerful movie, glad it's getting deluxe treatment, and yes Dreamworks SKG owns the Home Video rights and I'm glad!

Cover is great too! They wisely picked a shot where they drive into the city on that freeway with the skyscrapers and a nice little montage of photos on top

This is on special from DVDImport right now - works out around £11.70 shipped at current exchange rates :)

Hasnt anyone noticed the big lack of deleted scenes?

I thought there was suuposed to be litterally hours worth of deleted footage...where is it? Personlly this is what i was looking foreward to the most...they cut loads of Gigalo Joe, and he is so funny!

You have no soul.

[Blade Runner]

I also enjoyed AI at the cinema. In fact it was one of my favourite films of 2002. :cool:

Hasnt anyone noticed the big lack of deleted scenes?
Yes, I was looking forward to the rumoured deletions as well. :(

Also no Spielberg commentary. :( :(
