It seemed to me I read about a year ago they were planning a Blade Runner release on DVD which contained the Holden hospital scene plus a few minor scenes/shots added. So now it’s a year later and I don’t hear anything more about it. Does anyone know what’s up with this? Was this just a rumour? ---

I think I get the records for most threads that don’t get replied to. ---

I remember seeing it at the local theater for $2.00 a couple months after it opened. I also have the (or _one of the_) ‘Director’s Cut’ DVD’s. To the point, I checked out IMDB, read some recent interview blurbs with Ridley Scott - no mention. I googled, went to recently-updated fan sites - no mention. If somebody has the contents of the cutting-room floor, anything is possible. 😉 ---

But wait! (and lemme slip this in before the save). [http://www.brmovie.com/BR\_Special\_Edition.htm](http://www.brmovie.com/BR_Special_Edition.htm) There at least, the 20’th anniversary edition rumour you speak of is alive. ---

Are they finally going to fix that inconsistancy in the number of droids? ---
