All I Want For Christmas

This holiday season, I’ll be a very easy boy to please. Come Christmas morning, all I really want to find under the Christmas tree is what you see above: the Five-Disc Ultimate Collector’s Edition of Blade Runner. I blogged about this over a year ago, and it’s finally arriving on December 18th.
You can find all of the details over on The Digital Bits (which is where I found the above image), but here’s a very brief rundown of what the set includes:
- An all new “final cut” version of the film that is remastered, restored, and contains added and extended scenes
- The 1982 theatrical version of the film
- The 1982 international version of the film
- The 1992 director’s cut version of the film
- A “workprint” version of the film
- A documentary about the making of Blade Runner
- A boatload of featurettes, galleries, trailers, and other special features
And as you can see, the whole thing comes in a silver briefcase that also contains a film clip from the original feature, an origami unicorn, a model of one of the film’s “spinner” cars, and a signed letter from Sir Ridley Scott.
All in all, a very fitting tribute to one of the greatest sci-fi films ever made… and a wonderful gift for the bestest husband ever (nudge, nudge…).
What Is This Place?
Opus is a website masquerading as a blog masquerading as a webzine. It’s where I (Jason Morehead) write about music, movies, art, web design, religion and whatever else interests me at the time (Read More).

Commenting is not available in this weblog entry.Mate, I’m with you. I plan on purchasing this as soon as I can.
After reading Future Noir, I’m particularly interested in seeing the workprint.
