Thema: DVD


In den USA erscheint am 18. Dezember 2007 die "Blade Runner Ultimate Collector's Edition", die fünf DVDs in einem silbernen Koffer umfasst. Zeitgleich erscheint sie auch auf HD-DVD und Blue-Ray-Disc. Regisseur Ridley Scott präsentierte den "Final Cut" auf der Comic Con in San Diego im Juli 2007. Der Film wurde mir großem Applaus belohnt, und Scott kündigte an, dass er über "Blade Runner II" als Film nachdenke (zwei Fortsetzungen gibt es schon in Roman-Form). In Deutschland veröffentlicht Warner am 14. November 2007 nur eine Doppel-DVD. Auf Disc 1 befindet sich der "Final Cut" und auf Disc 2 die Dokumentation "Dangerous Days: Making Blade Runner".

"Blade Runner Ultimate Collector's Edition" Features:

Disc 1:
Ridley Scotts neue "Final Cut"-Version
Restored and remastered with added & extended scenes, added lines, new and cleaner special effects and all new 5.1 Dolby Digital Audio. Also includes: Commentary by Ridley Scott, Commentary by executive producer/co-screenwriter Hampton Fancher and co-screenwriter David Peoples; producer Michael Deely and production executive Katherine Haber, Commentary by visual futurist Syd Mead; production designer Lawrence G. Paull, art director David L. Snyder and special photographic effects supervisors Douglas Trumbull, Richard Yuricich and David Dryer

Disc 2:
Dangerous Days: Making Blade Runner
A feature-length authoritative documenentary revealing all the elements that shaped this hugely influential cinema landmark. Cast, crew, critics and colleagues give a behind-the-scenes, in-depth look at the film -- from its literary roots and inception through casting, production, visuals and special effects to its controversial legacy and place in Hollywood history.

Disc 3:
1982 Kinoversion
This is the version that introduced U.S. movie-going audiences to a revolutionary film with a new and excitingly provocative vision of the near-future. It contains Deckard/Harrison Ford's character narration and has Deckard and Rachel's (Sean Young) "happy ending" escape scene

1982 Internationale Version
Also used on U.S. home video, laserdisc and cable releases up to 1992. This version is not rated, and contains some extended action scenes in contrast to the Theatrical Version

1992 Director's Cut
The Director's Cut omits Deckard's voiceover narration and removes the "happy ending" finale. It adds the famously-controversial "unicorn" sequence, a vision that Deckard has which suggests that he, too, may be a replicant.

Disc 4:
Bonus Disc - "Enhancement Archive"
90 minutes of deleted footage and rare or never-before-seen items in featurettes and galleries that cover the film's amazing history, production teams, special effects, impact on society, promotional trailers, TV spots, and much more.
Featurette "The Electric Dreamer: Remembering Philip K. Dick", Featurette "Sacrificial Sheep: The Novel vs. The Film", Philip K. Dick: The Blade Runner Interviews (audio), Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep Cover Gallery (images), The Art of Blade Runner (image galleries), Featurette "Signs of the Times: Graphic Design", Featurette "Fashion Forward: Wardrobe & Styling", Screen Tests: Rachel & Pris, Featurette "The Light That Burns: Remembering Jordan Cronenweth", Unit photography gallery Deleted and alternate scenes, 1982 promotional featurettes, Trailers and TV spots, Featurette "Promoting Dystopia: Rendering the Poster Art", Marketing and merchandise gallery (images), Featurette "Deck-A-Rep: The True Nature of Rick Deckard", Featurette "--Nexus Generation: Fans & Filmmakers"

Disc 5:
Workprint Version
This rare version of the film is considered by some to be the most radically different of all the Blade Runner cuts. It includes an altered opening scene, no Deckard narration until the final scenes, no "unicorn" sequence, no Deckard/Rachel "happy ending," altered lines between Batty (Rutger Hauer) and his creator Tyrell (Joe Turkell), alternate music and much more. Also includes:
Commentary by Paul M. Sammon, author of Future Noir: The Making of Blade Runner, Featurette "All Our Variant Futures: From Workprint to Final Cut"
