I was just wondering how Criterion managed to produce a laserdisc of Blade Runner when it was a Warner Brothers-owned property?
As far as I'm aware, it has never been Warner's policy to licence out titles to other companies.
The only possible reason I can think of is that the Criterion's print contains the extra violence from the European version of the film, but there's no way it would have gotten anything above an 'R'.
Does anyone know how this came to be?
