it's the director's cut-i think those posters have seen the deleted scenes/alternate ending on the disc and assumed they should be in the movie.

Glad you agree, I think it gets an unfairly bad rep.

The DC of True Romance is basically the R-rated version with a load more violence. The only narrative change/addition is the identity of who shoots the cop.

I wish :lol: it is called trying to help people save cash. Some people just have to much cash to bother.


and I do wonder why Leon is so cheap, how odd that some titles seem to shoot down in price latley so quickly. Not a bad thing mind you :thumbs: as I never bought it at over priced prices.

Saying it once is helping................ saying it EVERY time is annoying.

I suspect it's to do with the distributor. Optimum titles tend to come down in price quickly. I think I'll pick it up.

Even us regular Quidco users forget sometimes, so I remind everyone all the time, like many do on other bargain forums :D


and hey Optimum titles are indeed quick fallers, I seem to buy lots of their discs, becuse the prices do fall so quick. They also seem to own so many different films nowadays, really are growing into the disc industry so well.

The have to reduce their prices because many of their releases have been so shite in the past that prospective online buyers don't trust them anymore! That Stargate BD for instance is absolutely atrocious, one of the worst BD transfers I've seen for EE and brightness boosting.

Leon is out now, you can see it is good quality (well for Leon in HD haha), so nothing to trust really.

Still I do wonder why every country was not given a perfect transfer of such a perfect film :(
I expected the world, it does not look too bad, but still not perfecomundo.
