Mmm..I wonder how reliable this link is.  One new ad I posted in another thread says all new bonus material. Doesn't seem to make sense making the first release content into a 2 disc set.  That would be probably a bigger rip off than the 1st release.  :-\

Here's the info on the Universal site (confirming all Kd's information):

This is what I was fucking afraid of.  "Never-before-seen footage" can mean anything, and it sounds like it's just some presentation on the success of BBM (not that we're not glad for the filmmakers).

And printing and packing the "souvenir postcards" is expensive. Geez, if you're going to spend $$, give us what we want!!

**Clings on to hope that link is not reliable**

It just makes no sense to me for the collector's edition of this particular film not to have more material than is shown here. I mean, the film's fanbase may not be the biggest, but we sure are vocal and supportive and knowledgable and willing to part with some cash - don't we deserve something of better quality than that? And if that sounds too conceited, then doesn't the film itself deserve a proper in-depth release in any case, irrespective of supporters or detractors? It is the most honoured film of that year and many a year - the director, author, screenwriters and actors all are extremely proud of it and dedicated to it...... It's a high quality, grounddbreaking, beautiful film and it deserves more than this paltry edition seems to promise.

If this is the consequence of the Oscar horror, my contempt for the AMPAS has just increased another notch. I didn't think that was possible.

At a minimum there should be proper commentary tracks.

I'm so bummed.

But I'm not planning on killing the messenger though!  :o Thanks for letting us know, kd5000!

How did Jack put it?
