This is an old post, but I recently had purchased The first 2 disc edition... which ironically enuff is more expensive than the other "revisited" version... What I wanna know what is the big difference? And why both DVDs were released almost like a year away from each other...

and here is a reply to your old post in case anyone else is wondering

It seems revisited and the original two disc were released by two different labels. So it might be safe to say one bought the rights from the other and then re-released it. Apparently it is virtually the same as the original two disc version. Below is the product description and one reviewer who contradicts that description (from Amazon.com):

Product Description
This limited edition of the classic film Style Wars features 30 minutes of "never-before-released" outtakes, new interviews, and "where are they now" footage. Also fetaured in this edition are new commentary tracks, "Destroy All Lines" and the Aesop Rock


and a reviewer calling the product description a bunch of lies:

By Spider "Boy" (CALIFORNIA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Style Wars: Revisited (DVD)
First, let me say that the original PBS documentary is a 5 STAR ***** film and I love the two-disc DVD issue that came out a few years ago, BUT this one??? NO WAY. It's the same as the other DVD even though they claim that the "revisited" one had 34 minutes of extra footage etc. It's the SAME as the other DVD and they say that once you play it. No new old footage in there, except maybe a few small but insignificant clips. If you want the good one, buy the 2-disc DVD that came out in 2004 I think. This is a rip off quite frankly and I am not even sure why they bothered to issue another DVD, simply because they have 4 new interviews and a few minor clips.
