Full 'Grindhouse' Theatrical Experience Coming to Blu-ray?

Why this has taken so long is beyond me, but it looks like we might be in for a treat as an early announcement to retailers indicates that Genius Products and The Weinstein Company are set to release Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino's Grindhouse on Blu-ray on August 11, reports Blu-ray.com. No edition details are available, other than this would be a two-disc set, but it may well be the theatrical Grindhouse double feature. 'Grindhouse' was conceived, edited and shown theatrically (in the US) as a typical exploitation double-feature as one could attend at cheap theaters in the 1970s: it consisted of two features ('Planet Terror', by Robert Rodriguez, and 'Death Proof' by Quentin Tarantino), interspersed with fake trailers and bumpers.

At a time when you can watch the movie the way it was intended on The Movie Channel, I see no reason why we should've been made to wait this long for the uncut version. Fuck the Weinsteins for this incredibly stupid move, I've had this version on my pc for a year now.

Tarantino is the director equivalent to a cock tease. First he promised a director's cut of 'Reservoir Dogs' after 'Pulp Fiction' was released, then it was a 'Vega Brothers' film, then it was the extended/uncut 'Kill Bill', then it was this, that and blah, blah, blah. I have been a big fan of his for years, but he is so full of shit! I only put any stock in him when he is actually shooting the films or the DVD is on the shelf.

About damn time! That means it'll be out on DVD also! They should'a just did that the first time!

Coffinjoe I totally agree! Sometimes I feel like he doesn't really appreciate his fan base. Especially with some of the lackluster dvd releases of his films.

RE: fceurich - Just so you know, when a company doesn't have a proper verified release date for a DVD, CD or videogame (it usually happens only for DVDs, Blu-Ray or not), they list the release date as 12/31. This happened a few years ago, for several years in a row, when it was rumoured that Nine Inch Nails was going to release their video set, Closure, on DVD. Tower Records had its release date as 12/31, so people got anxious every year that time - but it was revealed by an employee that they need a date to fill in, so they just fill that date in. So discount that and trust in August. And for any NIN fans that don't know, Trent released Closure as a torrent download. Check The Pirate Bay. He did it for free as a present to his fans. I really hope they make this TOTAL Grindhouse style, menus and all. Okay, peace everyone.
