| | Posted: | | | | Hello all
I'm considering replacing my Saw DVDs with Blu-ray...but I can't seem to find much information.
I need to compare the UK BD's to the DVDS.
1. Saw - is the BD the special edition? The uncut one?
2. Saw II - I have the R2 Director's Cut. Is the BD the DC too?
3. Saw III - I have the R2 Director's Cut. Is the BD the DC too?
4. Saw IV - I have the R1 Director's Cut. Is the UK BD the DC too?
5. Saw V - I have the R2 'Extreme Edition' - which is see is the same on BD. Is there a Director's Cut?
Thanks for any help on this. |

| | Posted: | | | | This is one series of films where HD isn't a huge factor, at least not for me, so I have stuck to the DVD releases. I wish you luck in your search for information. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

I haven't seen any of the SAW movies (yet) but I agree that se7en was a masterfully crafted movie in its genre. Can't wait to own it on Blu-ray (hopefully we'll get a better US or EU release than the Canadian one) | | | Blu-ray collection

If you haven't seen it by now I doubt you will. I simply haven't had the opportunity to see them yet. Besides, who are you to say if someone is going to watch it? It would've taken a few seconds to edit the post instead of arguing about whether or not someone is likely to watch it. | | | | Last edited: by Ardos |
