A petititon againist the Region 1 split DVD release of "Grindhouse".

To:  New Line Cinema and The Weinstein Brothers

It was recently stated that the double-feature movie "Grindhouse" would be released separately, into its respective segments on two disc DVD sets a month apart from each other. This is the current plan:

Death Proof:

Extended Cut of the Film
Finding Quentin's Gals
The Guys of Death Proof
Kurt Russell as Stuntman Mike
Introducing Zoe Bell
Quentin's Greatest Collaborator: Editor Sally Menke
Double Dare Trailer
International Poster Gallery

Planet Terror:

Extended Cut of the Film
Audio Commentary by Robert Rodriguez
International Trailer
Deleted Scenes
Cooking School
10 Minute Film School
The Stunts
The Makeup And Effects
The Badass Babes
The Renegade Guys
The Costumes
The Production Design

However, this is not what we fans want. We want the film we saw in United States theatres. The amazing and enjoyable 3 1/2 hour epic that included the fake trailers, pops and scratches, and missing reels that we drove hours to see, loved, and blogged about. This proposed split is a disgrace to the magnificent work of art of Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarantino, and all the other directors and actors that made "Grindhouse" the movie event of the year.

We petitioners have taken a stand and decided not to purchase these split DVDs. Only until "Grindhouse" is released on DVD in its entirety, plus all the aforementioned bonus features planned for the separate releases will we purchase this film. Don't hold out on your fans.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
