God I hope not. 30 minutes max but really anything over 20 minutes I'd be annoyed about.

I'm picking it up as I like the film.

Eh? I didnt mean the original release of the 2005 version. I meant I bought the 1933 version, I have the R1 Tin remember? ;) Why is that silly?

Romero are you sure you don't mean 13 mins of extra footage inserted into the film plus 40 (!) mins of deleted scenes? Thats what I've read over at DVD Active and the like.

If it doesn't have DTS I'll hold off that bit longer. I've waited long enough I can wait a wee while longer to see the UK R2 press release.

Nah, that's only the RRP. It'll be more like $60 from Deepdiscountdvd and Dvdpacific.
