I haven’t had a close look, but it appears to be the same cut as the US sequence in the opening minutes, and not the weird ‘end at the start’ version, but I don’t currently have audio, so don’t know if the narrative is there.
Well, the film has been released twice in Italy, maybe the Italian cut we know only happened once, like a sort of test by WB to see if the film would have been more successful that way.
I’ll be sad if it’s not there but it will be easier for an American cut. What’s the very first shot of the film? Surely there is no Buck Rogers, right?
