Kill Bill: "The Whole Bloody Affair" 4 discs - Page 2

Re: Kill Bill: "The Whole Bloody Affair" 4 discs

"Ya's fancy pants, all a ya's.
I want mine on VHS."




"The 'whole bloody affair' cut has been in the can for awhile. It played at Cannes last year and in Austin back in Oct.. Quentin had held off working on the special edition to take a breather from the whole Kill Bill experience. They could have released a movie-only DVD of the extended cut, then this SE would be a triple-dip."

Yea QT had made a statement about a year or so ago, that he was Kill BIll'ed out and needed a breather and to expect this in about a years time.Even thought the cut was done, I would guess they needed his involvement for extras.


About the HD talk - the studios REALLY need to start getting the SD and HD versions out on the same dates.

If the wait results in good features and a commentary, thne awesome. It's not like there hasn't been other releases while we waited for this.

Unless it is a great deal on a TV season set, I'll happily rent the SD DVD and watch it upconverted.
I save my money to support the format (HD or BD, either one).

If this doesn't get released at the same time as the SD, I see it as a deliberate move to get people to double dip later.

I'm also proud that I never once bought any version of Kill Bill. I knew they were going to do this one day and they wouldn't get my money until it was properly released (or at least uncut).

If your HD and BD then I can see putting purchases off.

I'm BD and HD, but seeing as how KILL BILL is the best movie ever made, I'll be first in line to purchase this thing, no matter the format.

My SD purchases haven't completely stopped but they are at a crawl. I used to average at least a dozen titles or more a month, so far this year it's under 1 per month. There's just not a whole lot being released on SD that I feel the need to own anymore.

There's always titles getting released in SD I'm interested in seeing but they usually get religated to Netflix.

Righty-O! I'd feel like a complete idiot buying this on SD knowing that when the HD version comes out (after a few months) I'd end up buying it yet again. Especially at a $50 MSRP - for SD?!! Fuck that shit. I've double/triple dipped enough over the years on SD so for me to buy it again it'll have to offer the significant PQ upgrade that only the HD formats can offer.

Last I heard, it was getting released on Christmas Day. I saw some photos of the packaging from Comic-Con. Don't recall where though.

It's going to be released on a day when ALL the stores are closed? That makes no sense...

Yeah, DVDs will probably get released on Wednesday (December 26) that week in order to cash in on people's gift cards.

Re: Kill Bill: "The Whole Bloody Affair" 4 discs

Amazon's listing seems to have a different release date every few weeks...the last being Early Nov.

Now the set is listed as "currently unavailable"...hmmmm?

Checking around, the only other e-tailer that has is listed for pre-order is dvdpacific.com. It's listed as Jan. 1, 2008.

I just want some specs...both Jackie Brown and Pulp Fiction had solid suppliments, I can only imagine what coolness could be on the 2 other discs, assuming the first 2 are the film itself.

Later

So I'm guessing this isn't coming out tomorrow....

Any news on a REAL release date for this thing?

Nope. Its possible this was just one big hoax.

Re: Kill Bill: "The Whole Bloody Affair" 4 discs

Our order at VPD Inc. was canceled because the title was put on moratorium without notice -- their way of saying "never mind, this isn't happening". No explanation or anything. Oh, well.

Re: Kill Bill: "The Whole Bloody Affair" 4 discs

What the hell are they waiting for? I want a good transfer of these films. I'd really prefer a BD release, but that probably won't happen this year.

Re: Kill Bill: "The Whole Bloody Affair" 4 discs

i think they are waiting for the Kill Bill spoof from Norway to hit cinemas..

Re: Kill Bill: "The Whole Bloody Affair" 4 discs

The longer they procrastinate on this release, the less interested I am in getting it. They should have released it three years ago when the longer cut was still fresh and people still gave a damn. I have a feeling the same will happen with the eventual release of the Grindhouse theatrical special edition.

MTV Movies Blog » Uma Thurman Reveals The Animated Future of ‘Kill Bill’

Quote:
We don’t know what’s happened to the story of The Bride, but the other animated film is going to blow you away, insisted star Uma Thurman.

“His anime stuff is strong,” she smiled.

We say we don’t know what happened to the story of the Bride, by the way, because Thurman claims to have never recorded a voice-over for the anticipated project.

“It has nothing to do with me,” she said. “It has to do with another character. You’ll have to see.”

That screams Bill to us. But the best part? It looks as if we’ll get to “see” real soon, perhaps as part of an expanded DVD release, Thurman teased, indicating that the short will be part of a larger re-release for “Kill Bill.”
“Right now he’s putting the two films together with an intermission with an added anime sequence he had already written,” she said of the ongoing saga of Beatrix Kiddo. “So additional stories are in there, in animation.”
