Product description
In celebration of iBlade Runner/i's 25th anniversary, director Ridley Scott has gone back into post production to create the long-awaited definitive new version. iBlade Runner: The Final Cut/i, spectacularly restored and remastered from original elements and scanned at 4K resolution, will contain never-before-seen added/extended scenes, added lines, new and improved special effects, director and filmmaker commentary, an all-new 5.1 Dolby Digital audio track and more. Harrison Ford, Rutger Hauer, Edward James Olmos, Joanna Cassidy, Sean Young, and Daryl Hannah are among some 80 stars, filmmakers and others who participate in the extensive bonus features. Among the bonus material highlights is iDangerous Days/i, a brand new, three-and-a-half-hour documentary by award-winning DVD producer Charles de Lauzirika, with an extensive look into every aspect of the film: its literary genesis, its challenging production and its controversial legacy. iThe/i definitive documentary to accompany ithe/i definitive film version.p p bDisc One/bbr RIDLEY SCOTT'S ALL-NEW "FINAL CUT" VERSION OF THE FILMbr Restored and remastered with added extended scenes, added lines, new and cleaner special effects and all new 5.1 Dolby Digital Audio. Also includes: ul li Commentary by Ridley Scott li Commentary by executive producer/co-screenwriter Hampton Fancher and co-screenwriter David Peoples; producer Michael Deely and production executive Katherine Haber liCommentary by visual futurist Syd Mead; production designer Lawrence G. Paull, art director David L. Snyder and special photographic effects supervisors Douglas Trumbull, Richard Yuricich and David Dryer /ulp bDisc Two/bbr DOCUMENTARY DANGEROUS DAYS: MAKING BLADE RUNNERbr A feature-length authoritative documentary revealing all the elements that shaped this hugely influential cinema landmark. Cast, crew, critics and colleagues give a behind-the-scenes, in-depth look at the film -- from its literary roots and inception through casting, production, visuals and special effects to its controversial legacy and place in Hollywood history.p bDisc Three /bbr 1982 THEATRICAL VERSIONbr This is the version that introduced U.S. movie-going audiences to a revolutionary film with a new and excitingly provocative vision of the near-future. It contains Deckard/Harrison Ford's character narration and has Deckard and Rachel's (Sean Young) "happy ending" escape scene.p 1982 INTERNATIONAL VERSIONbr Also used on U.S. home video, laserdisc and cable releases up to 1992. This version is not rated, and contains some extended action scenes in contrast to the Theatrical Version. p 1992 DIRECTOR'S CUTbr The Director's Cut omits Deckard's voiceover narration and removes the "happy ending" finale. It adds the famously-controversial "unicorn" sequence, a vision that Deckard has which suggests that he, too, may be a replicant. p bDisc Four/bbr BONUS DISC - "Enhancement Archive": 90 minutes of deleted footage and rare or never-before-seen items in featurettes and galleries that cover the film's amazing history, production teams, special effects, impact on society, promotional trailers, TV spots, and much more. p ul li Featurette "The Electric Dreamer: Remembering Philip K.

It includes an altered opening scene, no Deckard narration until the final scenes, no "unicorn" sequence, no Deckard/Rachel "happy ending," altered lines between Batty (Rutger Hauer) and his creator Tyrell (Joe Turkell), alternate music and much more.

 Mixed Bag January 3, 2009
G. Weck (Eugene, Or USA)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am a long time fan of this movie. I have had a 42" wide format screen for movies only for five and a half years. I switched to a full Sony "Blu-ray" setup a year ago. I have three previous copies of this movie in various packages. I place this movie in my personal top ten list. This Blu-ray 5 disc collectors addition is a rather poor repackage that obviously had the minimum of effort put into it. Disc one is extremely poor rendition with very low quality color and green bands running through it on both the top and bottom. The "Directors Cut" is a copy of the standard definition print of a copy already in electronic archive. Color intensity in this copy is wanting but not as poor as the "Final Cut". I was hoping this would rise above but there was no effort to reproduce a high quality product. The standard def 5 disc set is much better quality. My guess is the Studio no longer has access to a high quality "master". It gets three stars only because I saw this movie in the theater and have followed it over the years along with the other Ridley Scott grand efforts in the cinematic experience.

 A VISIOARY SCI-FI CLASSIC December 21, 2008

0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Harrison Ford's portrayal of Deckard in BLADE RUNNER is low-key perfection, and mirrors the bleak desperation of the decaying, dystopian world Phillip K. Dick created in the book BLADE RUNNER is based on ( DO ANDROIDS DREAM OF ELECTRIC SHEEP? ). Scott's direction is superb, the cinematography, in it's remastered format is stunning, and the Vangelis score in 5.1 Dolby never sounded better. br / br /If you love sci-fi without sugar you'll adore this film- particularly the boxed set with the Director's Cut, and the Final Cut versions ( both free of the Ford voice-over, and 'happy ending' of the Theatrical release ). It is a must-have for noir, and sci-fi lovers.
A Great Film Finally Gets the DVD It Deserves December 19, 2008

Fans who have put up with the letterboxed Blade Runner DVD, with its washed out image and fuzzy flat sound, owe it to themselves to get the Final Cut edition. The edits have changed only a little from the previous Director's Cut, but the digitally reprocessed image and Dolby 5.1 sound are stunning. It's like the first time I've actually seen the film at home.
Disappointing Audio December 18, 2008

All 4 Warner Brothers blu-ray movies I own that are rated Dolby TruHD only play as Dolby Digital 5.1 on my new Sony S-550 blu ray player and Denon 3808ci AV receiver, both updated with the latest firmware. The movies are "The Ultimate Matrix Collection", "The Dark Knight", "Batman Begins" and "Blade Runner". I have not had this problem with movies from other studios. For example, "Top Gun", "The Godfather", "Ironman", "The Hunt for Red October", "Men in Black", and "Transformers". However, these movies are also disappointing because while they play DolbyTrueHD sound, they are limited to 5.1 channels. However, I must say that despite that, "Transformers" has an awesome TrueHD sound track with unbelievable spatial resolution. The only movies I own which actually play 6.1ch or 7.1ch are "Wall-E", "The Curse of the Black Pearl (POC)", "Total Recall" and "Pan's Labyrinth". All are DTS HD, not Dolby Digital. It's a shame that blu-ray movies are not being made with audio to match the video.
