They should have cross-promoted it with Grindhouse then, considering the similar inspirations for both.I can't believe we've been waiting over 4 years for this thing and probably another year if we're lucky. Pathetic.
Alas, no. The last rumor was that we'd get the combined cut of 1 and 2 as an SE in August, with a possible theatrical re-release of this new cut shortly before that.
I don't expect an official announcement of any future releases until after 8/10 when the barebones Kill Bill 2 is released. They don't want to change peoples' minds about getting it. It's just basic marketing strategy. Maybe Miramax will announce the special combined cut in September, hopefully...
