"Troy" Re-Cut (Released)
Time
Troy - Director's Cut DVD is finally available !!!!!!

Is it good ?

According to a friend of mine, the director's shooting script pages are interesting, containing shot lists, notes about deleted scenes, and so on.

And the additional footage and new score gives the movie a grander scope and serious gravitas. The colors are richer. There are additional scenes that give you a better insight into the Paris and Helen relationship as well as scenes that give more depth to Odysseus and Priam...

Your idea is very interesting !

And here is more material for you :

On September 18, Warner Home Video will debut Wolfgang Petersen's all-new, unrated version - not seen in theatres - of his epic film Troy. With 30 minutes of new footage, Troy Director's Cut, including special features from its first DVD release, will be available in collectible O-sleeve packaging and will sell for $20.97 SRP. The HD DVD will debut simultaneously at $34.99 SRP.

The HD DVD too is expected to contain all the bonus materials found on the upcoming director's cut 2-disc DVD release. They include:

Troy Revisited: An Introduction by Wolfgang Petersen

In The Thick of the Battle: Discovering how Troy's epic battle sequences were created, from thousands of warrior-extras training in the scorching heat of Mexico, to fierce one-on-one duels to the death
From Ruins to Reality: Exploring how the ruins of ancient Troy were unearthed and how Troy's production design magicians created their own version of this breathtaking, legendary city
Troy: An Effects Odyssey: Secrets of Troy's stunning visual effects are revealed, from conjuring a staggering 1,000 ship armada on the open seas, to producing the bone crunching sound effects of brutal ancient warfare

Theatrical Trailer
This director's cut home video release (whether DVD or HD DVD) does not contain the option to view theatrical version. For those interested in the high-definition release of the theatrical version, you'll be pleased to note that Warner Home Video has already released the theatrical version of Troy exclusively (currently still HD DVD-exclusive) on HD DVD, with HD DVD-exclusive In-Movie Experience - Picture-in-Picture director's video commentary, as one of the bonus materials...

Other specifics will be posted once we've more official details.
