BACK TO THE FUTURE: EXCLUSIVE R1 CONTENT

AlwaysDoubleDown (Competent) posted this on Thursday, 22nd August 2002, 21:05

According to Bob Gale:

NO DTS on R1 BUT:
"we`re dropping the DTS track for domestic because it gives us almost 30 more minutes of bonus material per disc."

"I did a comparison between Dolby Digital and DTS and the differences are miniscule — if in fact there are any."

NO SCREEN TESTS ON R1
"No screen tests are included on. We had wanted to include a makeup test on Crispin, but Crispin...would not give permission."
- so NO Eric Stoltz footage other than stills in the "making of" doc

EPK ADDITIONS
epk for part 2
"a newly edited version" for Part 3
"profiles of Bob Z and Mary Steenburgen has been added into the original EPK..there was a lot of repetition, so we made one version that had the best of everything with no repetition."

2 ADDITIONAL DELETED SCENES (not on international version)
- full version of Doc`s suitcase
- Doc offering Marty gun (BTTFP3) extended
- 11 minutes more deleted/extended scenes "way more than the international"

MICHAEL J FOX COMMENTARY
- recorded separately, but only on a small part of BTTFP1

SCENE SPECIFIC COMMENTARY FOR ALL 3 FILMS
by Bob Gale and Neil Canton
"we tried to talk about things that didn`t appear elsewhere on the set."

BOB GALE COMMENTARY ON DELETED SCENES
exclusive to R1

SCRIPT FOR 1st DRAFT BTTFP2

BTTF RIDE BEHIND THE SCENES - proposed if space NOT confirmed

Ok I am tired and have had half a bottle of wine, but what does EPK stand for?

Well the horses mouth himself said that there is little if any difference, so Region 1 is well worth the wait IMHO.

Of course, if you are feeling extravagant why not buy two regions?

How anybody can say the Region 1 version is better I do not know.
The Region 4 (plays on Region 2) is the one to go for, it is available NOW, £17.49 and DTS sound, I wouldn`t advise anyone to wait for 3 months just for 2 more deleted scenes that will probably be 15 seconds each !!

Agreed. ls it really worth paying an extra £8+, and wait until a busy Christ,as for so few extras you may only ever watch once??

Well why not buy all of your dvds without regard to extras provided they have the holy grail DTS!

3 extras commentaries and 30 mins extra on EACH disc is hardly a pittance. But read round what you want.

I mean the producer of the dvds and director of the films himself says that the difference with the DTS versions is barely discernible.

BUT NO! DTS IVE GOTTA HAVE IT AND SO I CAN SAVE MY 8 QUID OR ELSE!!!!!

Ill be waiting. Patience has its rewards!

I`m personally waiting for the R1 set. I`ve got plenty of other stuff to order and watch that`ll keep me occupied in the meantime.
