According to recent reports, Ridley Scott's remastered science fiction film Blade Runner is now due out in September. Considering that the original theatrical release was replaced by a director's cut in 1992, this may come as a surprise to anyone who already has both DVDs in their collection.

Apparently Scott rushed to get the 1992 Director's Cut out and was never completely happy. Reminds me of the subtly different versions of the original Star Wars trilogy that seemed to follow each other endlessly. Blade Runner "The Final Cut" will be followed soon after by a special edition DVD through Warner Bros Home Video.

Three versions of the film will be included, plus unspecified bonus material.
