Hope it's based on this newer restoration from 2007 and not the old DVD one:

Not sure whether to order this or not but $12.99 is an excellent price.

True. Would be good to see screencaps.
I'd like a newer restoration of TGBATU.

Taxi Driver review http://uk.blu-ray.com/movies/Taxi-Drive ... 05/#Review

Thanks Salty. It is an excellent price. Including Amazon postage it works out at $19.47/£11.91.

Despite loving the film, I'll stick with my DVD SE for now.

More News about Once Upon a Time in the West:

from thedigitalbits:

Paramount Home Entertainment has just announced ANOTHER of our favorite films here at The Digital Bits for Blu-ray release: Sergio Leone's legendary western Once Upon a Time in the West will officially arrive on Blu-ray Disc on May 31st! No, I'm NOT kidding! SRP is just $19.99! The set will include BOTH the theatrical cut and the extended version of the film, English 5.1 DTS HD-MA audio (along with restored English Mono, and French and Spanish mono), and all the extras from the previous DVD release, including audio commentary (with contributions by directors John Carpenter, John Milius and Alex Cox, film historians Sir Christopher Frayling and Dr. Sheldon Hall, cast and crew), 5 featurettes (An Opera of Violence, The Wages of Sin, Something to Do with Death, Railroad: Revolutionizing the West and Locations Then & Now), a production photo gallery and the film's theatrical trailer (we suspect in HD).

I didnt know there was an extended OUATITW.

[Markgway]

Sounds excellent.

[grim_tales]

I'm thinking about whether to order Taxi Driver BD (depends how much I like the film). The 2 disc DVD already looks very good.

[grim_tales]

Amazon are reporting a release day of May 3 so it must have been brought forward?
