View Full Version : Leone Westerns fans, rejoice.
Yeah!
From IGN...
February 23, 2005 - Ask and ye shall receive. A reader wanted to know if the other two films in Sergio Leone's Man With No Name Trilogy -- Fistful of Dollars and For A Few Dollars More -- would ever come out on DVD. I said I'd seen info on a spaghetti western web site but couldn't remember the title.
Enter a helpful Insider with the address: www.fistful-of-leone.com. There I found all the details. A Fistful of Dollars, For A Few Dollars More and A Fistful of Dynamite (a.k.a. Duck You Sucker) will be released in Europe on April 18 and in the U.S. in the summer.
Like The Good, The Bad & The Ugly, all three films have been fully restored (presumably by Lowry) and will have missing scenes restored. Here are the details for each title:
A Fistful of Dollars: Special Edition
Fully Restored Version
Audio Commentary
A New Kind of Hero - Documentary
A Few Weeks Off in Spain - Interview with Clint Eastwood
Cinque Voci Featurette
Not Ready for Primetime - Featurette

Haha me too, but they're such great movies I'll get them anyway.
And it's not like they double dipped within 6 months of the original release, like most companies are doing now.
Besides, it's the freaking Man with no name! (Even though he does have a name :o )
I've never heard of Fistful of Dynamite...what's that about?
I've never seen "A fistful of dynamite" myself, but come on, Rod Steiger as a Mexican revolutionary soldier and James Coburn as an IRA explosives expert, directed by Sergio Leone?
I'm down :up:

A Fistful of Dynamite is the 2nd part in Leone's Once Upon a Time Trilogy. Although it doesnt bare the name of the other 2 films (Once Upon a Time in the West, and... In America). All 3 of those films were intended to take place during key points in americas history. Expansion towards the West, The Industrial Revolution (A Fistful of Dynamite), and The Great Depression.

Or you could be a man and stick it out like the rest of us :up:
Or you could be a manlier man (manliest ever) and demand these movies in their proper versions, like me :mad: :up:

... Well I don't see them releasing the 5th edition of Men in Black, do you :confused:
Yes, actually I do see them releasing that :(
When Will Smith has a new baby, they'll release the "SUPER DUPER WILLY JR. LOL" edition, with all new bonus features (just a new trailer, rest of features = same)

SE's for these movies have come out in R2 in quite a while, well over a year. By all means, do catch "A Fistfull of Dynamite" if you can. It's an awsome/hard view over the mexican revolution and an overall very touching movie, with the typical Leone characters and humor.

and will have missing scenes restored.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
The deleted scenes from Good Bad and Ugly were pure S***!! Stupid, pointless, and completely ineffective! Not a single good thing from those deleted scenes. And the best part was hearing the ADR from the very obviously older voices of Eastwood and Wallach.
Goddamnit that pisses me off.

I can't imagine the movie in a different version i have seen (I own the extended cut) what scenes were new to you?

When Tuco goes into the cave to hire people to help him track Blondie, and that weird voiceover plays. Pointless and plain weird. Not to mention not at all seemless sound effects and inappropriate musical cues.
The next scene should be obvious to you. Its when Blondie and Angeleyes are camped out at the river, and Blondie kills Angeleyes's lackeys. Angeleyes doesn't even have the same voice because Van Cleef was dead and Eastwood reprises his role, but he's much older and it sounds it, and he does NOT sound like Eastwood from that time. We don't need this scene because we already know how smart and cunning Blondie is.

the dubbing is indeed quite bad in the Tuco cave scene but I liked it anyway. And it explains why the bandits show up in the hotel in the next scene.
