Moderate box office success= no R rated version for BluRay??


I wonder since this wound up doing slightly impressive numbers this weekend if the studio won't release the original R rated cut on BluRay/Digital when it comes time. Shame because I want to see the movie as it was originally intended even if it sucks.

I haven't found any articles where the director indicates the R rated version will even be released.

If an R cut actually get's released. I would actually buy this movie right away. So yeah they would actually make more money on video, because i think other people would do the same. Otherwise just a PG-13 version would be easy to wait for a discount deal.

I'm only buying if there's an R rated cut available. The movie was kind of so bad that it was good, but the violence felt so tame .

Anybody knows what the difference (in minutes) between the R-rated version and the "so-called" cut version is? The version I've seen was 140 minutes and was marked as -unrated-...
I enjoyed this film to some degree and would probably buy it on blu ray, if I only knew the difference between the two versions... Well, if someone knows, let me -let us know!! :)
