I loved S2, but for some reason I don't care for this. I'm sick of releases like this.

To be fair this version was mentioned yonks ago at the time of the original dvd release so it's not your usual cash-in imo.

Yes, Raimi mentioned that there'll be a Spidey 2 Extended cut way back in 2004. I'll pick this up for sure, I've put off buying Spidey 2 for yonks now.

For those who give a shit (not me) Spider 2.1 News and Artwork: http://www.dvdactive.com/news/releases/ ... an-21.html

Well made but probably the most overrated superhero flicks ever.

I might check it out at some point. At least the price point is fairly cheap.

Additions to the extended cut. Sounds pretty ho-hum TBH. I'll buy it anyway, as I haven't bought the previous DVD.
When the Spider-Man 2 special edition comes to DVD - I already speculated that this would be in April, though nothing has been officially announced yet - there will be a whole raft of new material, recut scenes and alternate takes. 'Webhead' has been able to compile all of the differences and sent them to film ick.

Peter's Birthday Party is slightly extended.

Peter and Mary Jane's backyard conversation is slightly extended.
Spider-Man's awkward converation in the elevator is now made up from completely different takes.

Mary Jane and Louise's conversation in the shoe store is a new addition.

Peter's visit to the campus doctor is slightly extended.

Jameson is seen trying on the Spider-Man suit.

The Battle between Doc Ock and Spider-Man after the bank robbery has a new scene added - a fight in an office.

The train sequence has a small addition during Doc Ock and Spider-Man battle on top of the train.

All of this adds up to around 8 minutes of additional footage.
