Great news, I have the shorter version of VHS somewhere, but never got to watch it, and of course missed the reconstruction in the theater, so at least they aren't wasting much time with the DVD.

Got an opportunity to check out the recently released DVD and it looks great (as expected).
Also, a few more extra features than what I knew about:

*Commentary by Mr. Schickel.

*There's a great "Anatomy of a Scene" doc to inspect and analyze scenes from both versions.

*A documentary on the RECONSTRUCTION itself called "The Real Glory," plus one on Fuller.

*Many trailers/stills from both eras and much more.
