Lol. Keep us in the loop. Looking forward to whatever jackass response he comes up with.

In the 4K Star Wars thread we are talking about the recent change Amazon made to their listing for the digital version of Jedi
Especially since it’s safe to bet that that particular purchase of Jedi is not the theatrical version. If anyone wanted to pay for it and check, they’d probably get their money back because of the false advertising. I don’t see any point to that though.
Right. I am certain that all that was changed was the listing title and URL. Doubt that the film ready for stream is the theatrical.
Wasn’t it in 3D in theatres?
Yes.
Im saying that makes it unlikely the algorithm mistook the digital version for the GOUT, as they say “Theatrical version” as opposed to “limited”
If it’s an innocent mistake and not a leak, then it might have to do with TFA being labelled as theatrical, which is also a bit of a mystery, but one I’m admittedly uninterested in.
Well, there are two different versions of TFA
The normal theatrical cut and the 3D version. Perhaps that’s what the distinction is for. To differentiate those two?
Also, Amazon lists the ROTJ GOUT as “Limited Edition”.
The GOUT was a limited edition release originally, so that’s nothing new
I mean, I’m not getting any hopes up at all (I’m seriously, we’re talking about a fucking Amazon listing), but it does seem like such an oddly specific mistake to make (and an update to the listing, at that). So who knows.
Any chance it might just end up being a streaming GOUT?
The URL has also been altered as well
Right. But at some point a human must’ve put in that this would be relased, no? And the computer decided when/where to list it.
Probably, that’s my assumption. Keep in mind, and I hate to be a downer, that this very well could be a mistake. Just a mistake, not a leak, not a premature labeling of the product, but a freak accident that is no indication of any release of the theatrical version of Jedi. I don’t think that’s the case, but let’s not rule that out.
Absolutely. But I’m 100% positive that Return of The Jedis listing text was just altered. I’ve been using prime for years and use it daily. I could be mistaken about that of course.
So who do we complain to about this heinous revisionism?
Jedit: It’s also false advertising, no?
I suppose. But like I said, I think this was a mistake made by an algorithm. Amazon doesn’t “troll” its customers.
How munch advance notice would a retailer typically get for a release such as this?
I’m not sure. Also, I say that this mistake was done via algorithm because I don’t think there are people at Amazon who manually post each and every listing

As noted in another thread, the 2:14 time stamp also matches the theatrical version. URL posted in other thread also says theatrical version in it. Not just a new title, new URL entirely.
But yes the Listing Text and URL have been altered as such by Amazon.

I was wrong, actually. I apologize for that. The SE is infact 2 hours and 14. I double checked.
My excitement got me a little carried away.
I see it, yes. I was asking if you had evidence as to the reason it’s listed as such.
The special edition is two minutes longer due to the added scenes
On the Amazon listing, the film is listed of having a run time of 2 hours and 14 minutes, which is the length
of the theatrical cut. This is more than an accidental title alterationWell, holy shit. It’s happening.
I’m sorry for the fast commenting but I am 100% convinced that THE films are coming
No worries. So exciting! Where is everyone else? We need to talk about this lol.
I just checked my discs in case I was mistaken and I was. Harmys grindhouse scan has a length of 2 hours and a little over 11 minutes whilst the Special Edition is in fact 2 hours and 14 minutes. My excitement caused me to be careless and type info that wasn’t correct. However, I know for a fact that the (theatrical version) tag was recently added to Jedi in that Amazon listing.

You’re confused. Re read my replies carefully.
My only evidence is as follows. The title and the run time have been altered to appear as though it’s a product listing for the original version of the film.

COMMENT REDACTED
Evidence? Or speculation?
Could also be a troll.
I use Prime on a regular basis, the (Theatrical Version) tag was recently added to Jedi
Evidence? Or speculation?
Could also be a troll.
Go to Amazon and search for Jedi and tell me if you see it too
Evidence? Or speculation?
Could also be a troll.
If it were a troll, then all of the films in the trilogy would be labeled as the theatrical cuts.
Weird it’s only Jedi. Mysterious and exciting.
I believe it’s a listing mistake made autonomously. A big leak of what’s to come I believe
Go to Amazon and search Return of The Jedi. This is what I saw…
Uh, guys…Do you see what I see https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VMJ7RFY/ref=pd_cbs_318_1
That’s nothing. The Blade Runner set has like 6 versions of the movie.
Five versions of Blade Runner have been publicly released on DVD, HD DVD and Blu-Ray
The US Theatrical Cut
The International Theatrical Cut
The Directors Cut
The Final Cut
The Work PrintPlus Version 6 - the deleted scenes that are so extensive they form an entire alternate cut of the film when put back-to-back.
THAT version hasn’t been officially released though. That’s the Comic-Con version, right?
