I think it beats the GH version on most accounts no?
good news!
Me too, Iām honestly very fond of that one myself. Kind of donāt want to replace it.
Certainly looks like it will, on the face of it. 
I love the GH release dearly as well but that is the one aspect that could have been better. I think they could have at least had an English release of the longer version and, if nothing else, subtitled only the portions without English audio. Outside of that, it is an absolutely awesome release.

I think I will still stay with my old Sollima Box DVD.
The uncut version with Italian audio and correctly translated subs could be a reason to buy another version, but the one I have is actually not bad in that regard.

A massive selling point for me, I enjoy the full version but I prefer to listen to LVCās own voice so this version sounds fantastic!

On that note, can someone who has the GH release please check the details in the Database for completeness and correctness, and, because I am not sure of that, educate me if we really correctly have two versions listed, one 4 disc limited edition and a later one with simpler packaging and no soundtrack? Thanks!
Looks right to me, boss. The only issue I can see is that, in the database, weāve stated that the four-disc versions are limited to 3000 and individually numbered, and I canāt see where mine is individually numbered. The specs and extras look right though. Iām just going to stick them in the machine to make sure

So what scenes are added in the longer version? And how much is missing in comparison? I may not have seen them.
-EDIT-
I see now, looks like 15mins. Iāll have to stick the Italian version in and see what scenes are missing. Only ever used the main 95min US disc.
Same. I have the four-disc version and mine doesnāt have a number on it that I can find.
yeah. No number here either.

But will it better than the German blu-ray with English audio for the extended version when available? Have they found some more English audio?
probably not but the GH edition never had this in the first place. I doubt English dubs for these parts even exist
it depens from where you calculate, the US theatrical cut or the US extended cut (which as made for TV a it later, I am not even sure if those scenes contain dialogue because that means they would have had to dub that or be limited to discareded footage that had been dubbed). At any rate, the long cut is the preferred cut, why would you settle with something butchered of this magnificent movie

Unlike GBU, this film is better with the restored scenes.

Iāve always enjoyed it and thought it to be great as it is in the 95min version, but I guess Iāll have to watch the longer Italian cut and check out what Iām missing in that case.
