Blade Runner BD Complete Edition: The fifth disc is not "Workprint"

TerryHD · 12-18-07, 04:34 PM

In my BD edition of the complete, and in a friend's one too, the fifth disc is not the Workprint (even if it's printed as well on the disc), but the same that the first disc, the Final Cut.
Someone else?

thedeskE · 12-18-07, 04:37 PM

That's disconcerting - where did you buy the set?

TerryHD · 12-18-07, 04:39 PM

I received it directly from Warner.... and my friend bought it at a retail store in Quebec, Canada.

Swift Mojo Hand · 12-18-07, 04:40 PM

I watched my workprint disk 5 the other night and it was not The Final Cut.

The dead give away was the different intro text and no unicorn. I did find it odd that Ridley's intro says that the narrative voice over is a little different but yet it did not have any of the narrative from the original cut. Maybe I was mistaken about what Ridley was talking about in the intro.

.....oooooouh, hmnnnnnn, I have a set in the mail.

snickersbar · 12-18-07, 04:45 PM

At least the 5th disk isnt HD-DVD

TerryHD · 12-18-07, 04:54 PM

For me, is the same that the first: same intro, same languages (the Workprint has only one), same special features (3 commentaries, the Workprint has only a featurette),...
I'm sure !!

49er fan · 12-18-07, 04:56 PM

I will have to check my disc later.

bladerunner7 · 12-18-07, 04:58 PM

just got 5 disc set from ciricut city blue ray edtion..disc 5 ok

Paul Arnette · 12-18-07, 04:58 PM

And the hits just keep on coming...

Thank you, Warner Bros., for continuing to make a chore out of purchasing Q4 HDM releases.

Looks like I'd better check my copy tonight.

I'm sure !!

So you are saying that the artwork printed on the disk says workprint but the actual data on the disk is the Final Cut !!!

Whoa. . . . . .

LanceTX · 12-18-07, 05:04 PM

I just popped mine in the PS3 to check and my Disc 5 is indeed the Workprint as it should be. I bought my BD set today at Best Buy.

narcopolo · 12-18-07, 05:05 PM

The blu-ray set I bought last week definitely has the workprint on disk 5. I've played it.

YES.. same for my friend !!

shadowrage · 12-18-07, 05:26 PM

Damn it. Warner Bros. sucks.

Just checked. My workprint is the Final Cut. It has oppening titles and closing credtis. And a TrueHD track.

dalamchops · 12-18-07, 06:22 PM

lucky me, got the right disc

MarkV · 12-18-07, 06:26 PM

How does one tell? My copy arrived today and has a scratch on disc 5 (loose disc) so I need to check it anyway. I might as well see if it's the right version of the disc

shadowrage · 12-18-07, 07:22 PM

OP can you change the thread title?

So that we can see how many people have this problem. This is a pretty big mistake from Warner.

BluRayFreak · 12-18-07, 07:24 PM

Funny, my disk #5 was also loose!

I haven't checked to see if mine is a workprint or not...guess I better! I got the Ultimate (case version) though.

Same here. Loose disc 5 in Ultimate Edition from Amazon.

dnbois56 · 12-18-07, 07:37 PM

The disc holders on this set do suck-all but one of my discs was rattling around loose when I opened it.

wormraper · 12-18-07, 07:48 PM

Mine IS the workprint version.

GeorgeLV · 12-18-07, 08:51 PM

Well, that explains why Amazon hasn't shipped my order yet.

bunkaroo · 12-18-07, 09:03 PM

Just checked my copy and it plays as the workprint.

Perhaps - I ordered Oct21 - still have not yet on my order.
Some have been ok.

sirthx · 12-18-07, 09:35 PM

I got mine at Fry's in So. CA. Disc 5 is the correct 'workprint'.

DrCrawn · 12-18-07, 10:04 PM

Saw this thread and immediately checked the BD copy I bought today. Thankfully, no problems.

I'd think it was supply problems rather than QC.

Patsfan123 · 12-18-07, 10:46 PM

Checked mine and it was the proper workprint version. It also was loose in the case while no others were. However my Disk 3 has scratches on the bottom even though it was in place. I tried to wipe them off but they were in the protective coating. I skimmed through it with my PS3 and it didn't skip so I am hoping its not an issue.
