I assume this is what the new SE will be.

I suppose it's too early for a features list, right? I'm wondering if I should sell my R2 'Deer Hunter' disc with the Cimino commentary.

No Backdraft (SE) = No sale. 
No, but anyway...I don't have any of those titles, but the Casino (SE) looks tempting.
I used to have the Deer Hunter VHS and quite frankly, I never finished watching the thing. I got bored shortly after the beginning Vietnam scene. So I don't know if I'll ever buy that film.

but it's some kind of weird deal where one company has domestic distribution (Universal, obviously) and another one (WB, if memory serves) has foreign, right?

But I hope it's sooner too.

ViewAskewbian is right; before we all get too excited we might want to consider the "new" Apollo 13: Anniversary Edition or the latest incarnation of Meet the Parents as examples of Universal's continuing committment to quality. We might get a Big Lebowski "the dude abides edition" that is the old disc with 2 added deleted scenes and 20 new forced trailers added, or a Deer Hunter "extreme nam edition" with a badly misframed wisescreen cut, or a 12 Monkeys "totally trapped in time edition" with a new "rapper's reflect" doc and no DTS.

i was hoping for backdraft same day as ladder 49
could 12 monkeys go criterion with many of the other terry gilliam films? Warner has the rights to the short film it is based off of...(it appeared on short 2 dreams)
lets hope we get better fare on these rereleases than the newest dvds churned out

I am looking forward to
12 Monkeys
Casino (Anniversary Edition)
The Deer Hunter (SE)
However, since this is Universal, I will wait for disc specs and reviews before I get too excited.

I really still can't believe they made this...
American Pie 4
Is it going to be something different from the original box or just the reformatted discs?
Back to the Future (SE)
The rest of these I'm fucking thrilled to be able to get!!!
Casino (Anniversary Edition)
Las Vegas (seasons 1 and 2)
Miami Vice (season 1)
The Big Lebowski (SE)
The Deer Hunter (SE)
The Jerk (SE)

What's your point?
