If so I do have a problem with cuts but then again it depends on what has been cut and how much is actually cut. From what I remember there's not much than the censors would want to cut. According to the poster on the DVD times thread it is only two seconds and is nothing worth mentioning in my opinion. There also doesn't seem to be any official confirmation that this DVD will in fact be cut in the same way.

However having a decent soundtrack in the original language with decent subtitles is very important. English dubs have their place but I would much rather have a decent remastered 5.1 soundtrack in the original language.

Based on the description of the 2-second cut on DVDTimes, I'd say that the French DVD is also cut. I don't know about the german DVD, but I think that:
French cut = Spanish cut = German cut.

I wonder what the R1 cut will be like.
I used to be "the man who loves the movies you hate".
Now I'm just "that weird french guy with a cat avatar who comes to BnB once a year for no reason and then disappears again".

But this DVD is 93 minutes. IMDb says Thunderbolt is 110 minutes.

It said 93 minutes on DVD Times if anyone's wondering where my information comes from.

I saw 84m at the Warner website (someone posted a link on another forum). I do recall DVD Times sating 93m so it could be either. Hopefully both are wrong and it's 111m.

106m is too short unless it's from a PAL source.
