Finally got mine from amazon - 10 days in the mail!

This is the only BBM DVD I have, so was thrilled to get it.

I liked the part about the music the best  - and then the part on "being cowboys".  However, i'd seen a lot of this on youtube.  Postcards are nice, but the first one - sent to "Genral Delivery" - was not the same pic as in the movie - but it is a beautiful scene.

I'm happy with it, but really wanted outtakes & deleted scenes.   :(

This interview with an assistant director maybe should go in some other thread, but at the beginning he talks about missing scenes, so I'll put the link here.  Actually, it's from findingbrokeback.com, I saw at the end, and maybe some have seen this before in any event -- it's not new or anything.

He talks about only two scenes shot that weren't used, but we know there are more than that.

Thanks for this link, kathy.  It's very interesting.  I noticed he deferred to Ang Lee quite a bit.  The scenes he mentioned that he wished weren't cut, seem meaningless to me.  But I'm curious about the one he wouldn't talk about - said it would influence our perception of the outcome of the film.  Like we could be influenced.  Sure we could - give us the deleted scenes - we're going to perceive the outcome anyway.

Thanks, carby for the petition. I will do email too.

I got mine yesterday and am still hesitant to open. I think I will leave it as it is for now.

I signed it too.. thats so dissapointing, this DVD is practically identical to the first release, unless theres deleted scenes and commentary i will not buy another BBM DVD.. its the same! :(

i read a review about the collecters addition.. saying they may release an anniversary additon (in future years). aah i dont wanna wait that long, like 10 years haha

Somehow I feel we will never get a true Collectors edition unless Ang Lee really wants one and it appears he doesnt . He put a period behind BBM and moved on, just like all the actors have.

I posted the petition link on Dave Cullen, couldn't find any appropriate place so I posted it in the Newbies Introduce Yourself, I told the mods there to post it at the best place.  (I felt weird posting there)

And I take the link to the petition here:

Yes and no.  Actually I posted it in their newbies introduce yourself thread and made a clear statement I was from ennisjack and will meet many of them in Bay City next February 25, I received a very warm welcome from many of them.  We're all Brokies, huh?  But you all know where my heart belongs to  ;)

OK, back to topic, some more Brokies signed the online petition. 8)

If someone here who is also on Bettermost read this, could you spread the word about the petition plize?

yeah I am based in the UK got my copy a few days ago agree its very good but had hoped there were some shots that hadnt made it into the original release. I also have a copy of the german "delux" edition in european format - the presentation is excellent and though again no additional footage the extra disc is worth a look.  Here hoping there is a further copy with extra scenes in the pipeline-Gus

Welcome, Gus.  My feelings are similarly mixed.  But do consider signing the petition for an even better (future) Edition.  :)

Does anyone has pics and infos about the special edition? I'd like to update the BBM DVD Encyclopedia.
Thanks.

BTW, if someone has a DVD edition which is not in the BBM DVD Encyclopedia, please send me a PM :)

I watched this "Collector's Edition" several times already.  The movie itself is the same except the title screen and theme song is different.  It also has Spanish subtitle and language. The first disc has the movie and "A Ground breaking Success" documentary.  The second disc has "Impression from the film" and " Music from the Mountain" along with the original four.  Also you get 8 postcards.

Alright.. so I look at the petition I started from time to time and it really hasn't made much progress in the last couple of months. A lot of this is probably due in part to me being neglectful and not promoting it the way that I should have, but I got busy and it got put on the back burner. Now that things have calmed down, I am going to try and get more signatures.

We need plenty more so this really needs to be promoted well. I do still plan to print things out and send them to their appropriate places, but it would be futile to do so with only 373 signatures.

This is where I need some help. There is no way that I am going to be able to do this on my own. I know cham has helped me a great deal in promoting this and to him I am very grateful, it means a lot to me. We do still need many more signatures to get this thing sent off to Universal, though.

So if you can please, either
1) Sign it if you haven't, already.
2) Tell everyone you can about it. I even got my mother to sign it after I explained it to her a little bit.
3) Try and promote it where you think it is appropriate ex: Other Brokeback forums with mods permission, communities, friends that liked the movie. Word of mouth is the only way this is going to succeed and I'd really like for it to do just so.
