I do worry that the BBFC cut issue is going to over-shadow other aspects of the release though, such as the extras, and the fact that it's the longest version of NYR ever to be release. That's something to get excited about surely? |
That's what I think. Even with the cut, this is said to be the longest version of NYR anywhere, so it'll be good to own this and the uncensored version. |
ive got NYR on dvd today and im just wondering is the blu the same runtime |

How can they still cut films? It's art, and are to be touched by no one else than the creator... ****in' BBFC... |
Cuts or no cuts, I've enjoyed every one of Shameless's fine releases thus far and haven't at any point felt short changed. Maybe I'm not that clued up or educated in the ways of the true movie critic or the so called life long film buff but I like to think I have a good grasp on the whole Shameless/Arrow ethos and haven't lived the past 34 years in a cave laughing at my own farts. Without wishing to be a bitch I'm more likely to laugh at those who spend hard earned cash buying multiple versions of the same film in the hope of owning some 'Holy Grail' when a company like Shameless are right on my doorstep. Ultimatly though, happy viewing, whatever and however you decide to shop for your horror/giallo etc etc :) |

I'd like to get a list of the new scenes (3 min + 15 sec) - coz to be honest: I can disclaim 15 seconds of "someone getting out of a car" when one of the key scenes from the movie has been trimmed to not upset the elderly. P.S.: It was a tough decision to even get the Shameless DVD to complete my collection - but since it was cheap and since I have other, intact, versions of the film as well I did buy it. I'll definitely skip the Blu for now - maybe there will be a VERY good price at Amazon someday that I cannot refuse but getting movies in the way/version they were intended to be and not in the way some guy I don't give a crap about thinks I should see it. |

It's completely up to you whether you buy it or not. Shameless can't help the BBFC's decision and did try everything they could to get the film passed uncut. Unfortunately, it wasn't to be. After paying out to licence a new HD master, Shameless could hardly be expected to just drop the release because they couldn't release it uncut so, instead have gone to great lengths to make sure this is still a release worth owning. They understand some people may not want to purchase a cut copy of the film but, since New York Ripper was their second biggest seller on DVD (cut) then they saw it as an excellent choice of title to be their first Blu-ray. |
