Bullets 'n' Babes

http://www.melonfarmers.co.uk/news.htm#Dark_Days_3087

I do remember that in the cinema version it's clear what The Joker does with the knife. The audience winced at that moment (as they did with the pencil impaled in the eye) and I found myself amazed that the BBFC passed such violence in a '12' certificate.

But who made the cuts? The BBFC list the video as "uncut" so maybe the distributor (Warners) trimmed it to ensure the same low rating?

Its not likely, its been confirmed, and I already posted this news.

Sorry I didn't see your post.

EDIT: No wonder I didn't see it. T'was in a thread called Tower Delivery Times(!)

Just trying to keep you on your toes!

Please tell me this isn't just the UK version.

Last post says they're the same.

So not confirmed then?

Hmmm. Strange. I'll just have to wait until my US BD arrives...

As the "last post" will quickly change, here it is:

If they're the same then meh! Big Deal.

I'd prefer it if they were the same, I'm sick of the UK being screwed over. If we get a fractionally bastardised version of the film, then America can too for my peace of mind.

I already posted the link Brad.

So all versions are censored/cut?

No you didn't. Like I already said you twat. Your link, following your instructions already says:

"Sorry guys it must be me"

Fat lot of good that is. You need to post "direct links" you dumb fuck (using the Perm Link on the right). To think you reckon I'm the awkward one .

It looks like that's the case yes or at least the UK/USA versions.

Given that BD doesn't rely on PAL/NTSC it makes sense from Warner's point of view to use the same BD Master everywhere.

Agreed.

Tut tut. Such uncalled for vulgarity.

I rechecked and my link takes you to the last page - at time of originally posting - which is where the conversation about cuts began - and that's good enough unless you're a moron who can't scroll down - or Brad; which is probably the same thing anyways. Taking you to the last post is useless since you'll have to go back to read the rest. The last post alone has no context. Twat.

Get a room you two.

That made me laugh out loud for some reason haha

Both the UK and US versions are the same.

Cut? Thats a shame

What a load of arse over nothing then. I seriously doubt you'd have even noticed Grim. You'll probably pause it and watch out for it now but if no one had told you you'd be happy as larry.

I understand when obvious cuts are in place but cuts such as this that virtually everyone wouldn't spot anyway, I don't get the big deal.

I wonder why it was cut though? It's not like this is one of the most violent scenes.

I know what you mean. I probably wouldnt care if I hadnt spotted the thread anyway.
Ah well
I'll probably have forgotten most of TDK when I pick the DVD/BD and by then I'll be fine

And statements like that are exactly the reason why these companies think its ok to cut films, when it is NOT.

My main gripe with the BD is that there is a lot of edge enhancement on the 35mm shots. Not great. But the IMAX shots look amazing.

That would assume they read forums, like this and they don't.

Warner are so big they don't care what the Average Joe says, especially when 1 person in a 100 gives a monkeys.

someone elsewhere said the scene in question was in the trailer but not in the finished cinema version anyway.

Really? IM does the Joker say "Why so serious?" on the DVD version? In the cinema version I'm sure it doesnt show all the details but its pretty obvious what he did.
