I thought it was the 2005 SE

(which is 3 discs) but it's the non-remastered 1933 version with some B-Movies thrown in.

Thanks anyway.

The Bourne Identity/The Bourne Supremacy box set £6.99 - http://www.thehut.com/hut/97463.product

Don't bother, the current DVD of Bourne Identity is junk. It's missing the DTS track and Director's commentary from the original release.

Yup and you know there will be more re-releases next year in time for part 3

Extras Series 1 £3.99 @ HMV
http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProd ... sku=420405

Was going to get it but I'm not too pleased with HMV. I ordered GitS: SAC 2nd GIG 1-5 and Akira before their last order date. 2 discs haven't even shipped, and the only one I received was Vol. 4 of the first season. Hmm.... And on that annoying little sticker they attach to everything it had the Cat No. and name of 2nd GIG Vol. 5 which it should have been. For some reason the price was marked wrong as well.
I sent an email and got some real bullshit back. I am expected to pay and accept liability to return it and go through the exchange process.

Watched D13 last night.

Has anyone sampled the English dub?

It's hilariously awful.

Check it out.

David Belle is now Irish!

Also, why did they shorten the casino fight? Some great moves were trimmed.

I have given up and am just keeping the commentary freee version, its copy proted to hell as well and cannot even put them on my MP3 player, tossers

they are the Only company I cannot get cracked.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 02 Jan 2007, 18:34

What's the company?

Personally I'd send it back and even if I'd lose some cash. I'd then at least end up with the version I wanted.

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 02 Jan 2007, 18:39

Sony/Screen Gems etc.. same company and boy their copy protection is imposible to get around, even ripping the MP3 soundtrack from it

they have had rock solid copy protection for a while now, they shafted most pirates it seems, its dooable, but not easily, too much hastle.

If companies are wanting to stop piracy a bit more, use the Sony copy protection

it works bloody well.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 02 Jan 2007, 19:12

I'm pretty sure I heard Tom say Tartan use that.
