Thank you so much for this list!

I've also heard that the Extended Cut removed tome of the violence, like when one pirate is being shot or when a shot rips off a guy's feet.

But judging by your list, I'm practically even happy not having seen this version as it sounds like 10 minutes more blah-blah (and let's be honest, acting isn't really Stallones biggest strength ) and even less violence ... I think I'll stick with my US Blu-ray for now and get this just to complete the RAMBO collection.

Just like with DVD I feel a multi region machine is a must.

I own all Jackie Chan films on vhs, all the so far released Blu-ray's and gradually collecting all the dvd's. Shame I only have my ps3 for blu's then because the police story trilogy would be a must own for any film fan. I watched Police Story just last night and forgot just how phenomenal that film is. Guess I'll just have to wait for some company to buck there ideas up and get some region b blu-ray jackie classics released.

The problem is that the BD Assossiation is againt multi-region players which is why the companies who released such players (Dyon, Momitsu) had to do firmware updates to remove that capability. Of course, I'd rather shoot myself than feed my player with that update. One day, I'm getting a REAL codefree machine like Movietyme sells them but they're all so friggin expensive...

Anyone who buys hardware from Movietyme is asking for trouble.
If you look at the T&C's for hardware you will see that MT themselves are only interested in helping out if players go wrong within 30 days.

After that they genuinely expect buyers to contact the US branch of the manufacturer with a view to returning parts to the US at your own expense.

Amazon and Play both operate similar policies regarding faulty hardware but of course if your player is a US player then the UK branch won't be interested so you will end up with a useless piece of junk.

For fully multiregion hardware you should call Multiregion Magic. UK based and apparently the only supplier of players that are multiregional for Bluray.
Other places like Richer Sounds are still only offering Bluray players that are MR for dvd

Waiting for The Crazies remake to turn up in the post. Only other Blu I've bought recently is The Man Who Fell To Earth which I'm still waiting to watch.

Currently awaiting The Breakfast Club which was sent from playusa earlier in the week.

Will be interesting to see how this looks on Blu-ray


I've just finished watching the extended cut of Rambo 4 which was pretty good.
