Proud owner of the 293 minute version of "Das Boot"

Just got it and finished watching it an hour ago.

The Original Uncut version...just...wow...I am in awe.

Well worth the wait (been trying to get my hands on it for...hell...since I first heard of it.) and yes, well worth the wait!

It's great, but I still miss things that are in the book. Got a Dutch copy of the book :p

Welcome to the (extreme) club! I've had it since its release, and never get tired of it.

Yes, the book is a little different, but this version of the movie comes closer than most (witness the recent 3:10 To Yuma).

I'll be getting it soon, so far I had to be satisified with the directors cut.

I was like you. For years I kept watching the directors cut. But the Uncut version takes it to yet another level. Do yourself a favour and buy it.

Sailor Steve. Have you still got the Amazon link to help people join the Extreme Club?
Steve set me on the right path there

Having seen the original U.S. release of Das Boot "back in the day", I hadn't seen it again until AMC channel broadcast it this past July (used my PVR to record it...heh). The broadcast was the "director's cut" which was an English language dub. IIRC, the original release was in German with English subtitles. What is the difference between the "extreme" version and the Director's cut?
