The uncut UK dvd is really just the US theatrical version.  The official Vhs tape has always had those scenes.

Only the UK broadcast and UK vhs tape were censored as far as i know.  Though the US broadcasts might have been censored when it first aired on TV.

So basically all it has is the condom scene and the cigerette lighter tongue scene that were cut from the UK prints by the censors.

Man those europeans are strange they also cut that headbutt in Star Wars Episode II.

Thanks to those Uk censors no uncut version of Goldfinger exists because they cut the master print.

Besides Pal speedup, i would never buy the UK version of a film because they cut things that make zero sense.

If not for region coding on Blu Ray the whole NTSC VS PAL would be a moot point anyway.

You can thank sony and their ultra consumer friendly drm schemes that limit the use of a product people paid for and also have the legal right to fair use.

If not for their rediculous region coding schemes you could play japanese games on your us playstation without having to resort to buying a japanese playstation 3 to play the games.

These constant firmware updates and codes locking you out from watching a movie you bought on the movie player you paid money for is stupid.  Until they stop the nonsense i'll continue to support plain old dvd.

I know that people really hate sony and the drm so a lot of people ilegally download BLu ray rips and watch them on their media center pc.
