[jas]

Who own this tittle na? Is it really worth it pa the extra 8-minute? Feedback pls.. 

Sir pchin, this title will be released on April 17 pa...

Don't know though if any of our US based members have already seen the extended cut on cable?

[pchin]

Opss...my bad! Tnx Jas for the correction Guess my curiousity get the better of me.

[baby]

From the looks of it i think it's worth it. But will they ever release this on HD or BD?

[pchin]

Good point James.  Now it's a matter of time & to decide whether to get the SD-DVD or or wait for the HD release (hopefully with the extended edition)

P.S. Spiderman is under SONY so if there's a HD release it will be exclusive to Blu-ray  By then, this will justify us being format NEUTRAL 

[RadicalDude]

This movie is one of the reason why I'll be going for Blu-Ray in the near future and not HD-DVD... but since it's from Sony, does that leave me a choice? Anyway, it's still LOTR Trilogy that will be my biggest deciding factor on what format to go to...

[baby]

So the best choice for us is to wait for Blu-ray/HD-DVD combo player.  I want Matrix trilogy/LOTR trilogy,Spider-man.

[allanmandy]

Yes! Yes! Gotta wait for that Blu-Ray/HD-DVD combo player! LOTR, Spider-Man, Matrix, Star Wars, Pirates, & Harry Potter are on top of my list!

[pchin]

Many new comers will be torned btw the two HD formats once Spiderman HD is released...even myself will certainly turn NEUTRAL by then

A review is up at IGN:

"Overall, the additions do really enhance the Spider-Man 2 experience, and for my money make this the definitive version of the film. In this context, even Aunt May's interminable speech about what it means to be a hero - which I believe is still going on as I type this - seems to feel relatively natural, instead of being a screenwriter's soliloquy purge. By and large, Spider-Man 2.1 is itself a terrific addition to the growing canon of Spidey DVDs on the market. Even if you choose not to buy it, give it a rent; it's one of the first cases in memory of a Double Dip that truly allows you to have your cake - and not mind watching it, too."

Just read the review and I'm glad it's a good one...

BTW guy, just curuous, did someone acquire an R1? just curious on how it looks like? how about the features? does mirrror the earlier released R3?

[RadicalDude]

I did acquire the R1 release, though I haven't received it yet.

[juanch]

finally got my own copy 

but sadly the slipcase of the r1 copy doesn't have that sleek shiny cover that the r3 release has.
