I suspect that this might be one of those titles too - but it is most certainly not an "uh-oh" for me. "Cool Hand Luke" is an evergreen title that deserves the special packaging! |

I'll definitely be purchasing this - I never did pick it up on DVD and Cool Hand Luke is one of my favourite Paul Newman movies.

I'm surprised Warner aren't making this more of a "fully loaded" release, this is a great movie that deserves the best treatment on Blu-ray, however this looks like it could be a let down.

You got a commentary and a new featurette so what else do you want?

Re: Cool Hand Luke Deluxe Edition - Blu-ray 09/09/08
I simply thought it would have more extras, more in line with the likes of the Bullitt and Bonnie and Clyde Special Edition releases.
"Cool Hand Luke" deserved to get a Special Edition from Warner Bros. not just the Deluxe Edition treatment. It's not even going to be a book release...
I'll just have to wait and see just how comprehensive the "featurette" is.
