The UK version isn't cut (at least the DVD wasn't).

There's no HD of the dir's cut though.

AFAIK, he edited it himself. They're both dir's cuts, I guess Ronny Yu prefers the longer version though.

Thanks guys.

I think he does. There was that article remember saying after the Western Cut came out he cut too much. I don't think the Thai Cut is Director approved. I wonder if the HK Cut is?

Of course it does, you bought the Director's Cut, not the HK (Theatrical) Cut ;)

Since when did Amazon ever have vouchers?

I presume you mean by luck instead of officially? £14 for a BD seems lousy to me.

You have no option if you order from them, they may combine them together in one box. I had 3 seperate orders, they sent them in one big box together, so its out of your hands.

I hate when they do that. I rarely find EzyDVD cheap hence I've not used them for years.

Odd as I thought The Hut supplied Asda their discs, which usually means prices are the same. So it's good then? I've only seen bits of it.
