bought the original cut.. wont be double dipping on this.

Studios are really starting to piss me off with their fucking double dipping shit.

I knew there would be an unrated version, even in the commentary they said there would be one, or so my friend said. As for the movie, one of the worst of 2004, I definetely won't be buying it, but if I hear it's good, I might consider renting it.

I agree, i honestly believe that the double dipping trend may kill the industry, not becuase people wont buy them.but they wont know when to stop and people will finally realize that 5 versions of pooty tang is too many..lol

[wheresdonnie?]

Damn, if I'd known about this a month ago I wouldn't have shelled out of the DVD...I still liked it, though.

[chilli pepper]

Thats what, six more minutes, big deal. But, I didnt buy the first edition so, if I buy one version, it'll be this one.

[pyscho dude]

Great. Now we can get even more of this pile of crap.

[moose1132]

Fuck em. I enjoyed the movie, bought the original release, but I'm refusing to double dip anymore. I'm just really pissed; there have been tons of double dip announcments latley and they're coming so fast now.

[EvilEd]

Unless it's LOTR, fuck double dips, fuck em up their stupid asses!

:cool:

[tattooedlen]

the grudge didn't do a thing for me. i don't scare easy. hell this movie couldn't scare a good alter boy on sunday afternoon.

i saw SAW, it was clever to a point, but still it didn't move me...........

I was smart enough not to buy the first disc cause i knew the Unrated cut would come out later. I'm glad i waited.

I will be smart enough not to buy this version either, cause i know they will come out with an ultimate edition when the grudge 2 will be coming out in theaters, then after they make 3 and maybe 4..there will be a box set..lol..notice the trend here

[scubasteve]

Although I did purchase the DVD it was a so so movie anyway. Not even close to double dipping for.

[bdubprod]

i didn't buy the PG-13 version because it was one of the worst movies from 2004


i'll give the uncut version a shot though, see if it makes it any better

[MisterTwister]

Here's what will be in the uncut disc:

. After Bill Pullman's Death we Focus on his dead face and the eyeball on the pavement has slightly popped out looking like a white gum drop.

2. The Old senile lady when she meets Yoko (caretaker) is messing with tape and her fingers are covered in blood.

3. Later SarahMichelle shows up and sees the bandaged fingers as well. Its a new plot point I believe showing that she was the one who locked Toshio in the closet.

4. During the Open House the sister hears things and finds a cat figurine in Toshio's closet as well as remnants of his drawings.

5. During the American couples first night in the house the wife hears the clatter of what she believes to be the mother but is really Toshio.

6. They show a bit of Jason Behr working and studying before a recently discharge SMG shows up at his work.

7. Ted Raimi meeting Yoko jawless in the hallway is extended and she even stretches back quite a bit to show down her throat quite a lot.

8. The Bill Pullman scene where he shows up at the house and finds Ayako's body is longer. She falls out of the closet and we stay on her for quite a while. She seems to follow him throughout the room. Her neck is making crunching noises.

9. The thumping that you hear from the hanging body in the next room reveals that Toshio is pushing his fathers feet into the wall and that's why we have the sound! I thought this visual was pretty eerie.

10. Here is what makes the uncut uncut. The father killing his family scene. He grabs Ayako and semi strips her and grabs her by the throat and in his rage twists her head to an almost 360 and it splinters and cracks as she spits blood.
The 'aaaaaaaacckkkk' sound is from her dying as her throat is distended. Toshio views the ENTIRE thing! This reveals why
he is always bug eyed when on the stairwell looking down because this is where he was sitting.

11. As SMG is saving her comatose hubby we see more of the family death. It looks as if he cuts the cats throat in the tub and then he slams its carcass against the tub walls. We then actually see Toshio being drowned. He even has a moment where he looks at his father before he dunks him in. Then there are jump cuts of where the father placed their corpses. These spots end up being where they congregate. Toshio is dead in his closet along with his mother in the attic.

12. I believe in the US version SMG yells at Jason Behr 'not to look at her'...in this version the dialogue wasnt there.
When Ayako is giving him the staredown of death.

13. In the aftermath of the fire we see a POV from SMG point of view in the ambulance as well as firefighters performing their jobs on the house.

And it's not a double dip. It was known from the beginning that there would be an unrated version. See FOX Dvds such as Man on Fire, The Day After Tomorrow, and I, Robot for examples of double-dipping.

There's more!?!?!


The stuff they gave us in the theatrical cut sucked hard enough, I think it's safe to say I'm gonna stay the hell away from this one, too.

Unless I wanna make fun of the new scenes, just how I made fun of pretty much the whole theatrical cut...

[Kucha]

I may check this out... I wasn't a big fan of the pg-13 version.

[EDsoulsurvive*]

I knew it was happening, I don't know why I bought the original version. I hope I have the will power to resist this.

[Lord Nikon]

Anyone who was stupid enough to waste there money on the original DVD deserves this. This movie couldn't have been good, and I wouldn't know cause I didn't and don't plan on seeing it. You wanna tell me SMG gets nude in this movie than I will buy whatever the hell they are selling.

[EDsoulsurvive*]

good thing you have a solid argument.

[rilocay]

It's nice to see that theyve added another thing from Grudge 2 in the american remake...but still the original and original remakes are both 100% better than this borefest :o .

[mr_gamecube]

I'll buy it, I bought the first one.
