I know Bryon the Aussie has reported about the viewing. Hope that Mad Ivan makes an appearance here after viewing the film.
This makes me very suspicious that there even exists an "edited" version.
The yo-yo over at Huffington believes they're running the *unedited* version because there's not been enough time to create and "ship" an edited version.
But that makes no sense. Networks do not "ship" video programs via Fedex or the US mail. They send them via the Internet. A 2 1/2 hour show might be a few gigabytes and could be moved from the US to Oz in an hour or even less.
Even if ABC stopped the "editing" at midnight last night, there would have plenty of time to transmit the files to New Zealand and Oz. There is still time right now to get that "edited" version over to the Brits.
That everyone is allegedly running an "unedited" version makes me believe that there isn't any other version.
MadIvan bump.
thanks for thread.. home earlier due to car problems with my friend tonight (and my two vehciles are both in shop).
Looking forward to this.. Now I was under the impression there were NO changes in the US presentation... has that changed?
I haven't seen Mad Ivan for a long time. Hope he drops in too. Rush will tell us too.
I'm not watching it. TiVo is my friend, and so is my DVR.
I got so mad about them editing it that I decided my bp couldn't take it.
