Yeah, it's hard to get anything in the states for Japanese cinema too, not a lot of companies doing it and no retailers carrying the few that do.  So if I don't check out Amazon constantly I don't know.  Though between talking here about these and with my new writing partner, i'm hankering to look for some movies to watch.<br/><br/>It's funny because one of the Ichi editions I have, it has a commentary track with the manga creator and Miike, it's pretty funny to listen to/read (since it's all in subtitles)  I can't remember if they discussed the different endings.<br/><br/>And ya welcome Smoke.
