Wesley Snipes/Demolition Man is badass.

Geez it's been years since I've seen this! And it's still just as enjoyable.

I have no clue what the people who made it were on. Not sure if it's comedy or sci-fi or action. But whatever it is it worked.

And John Spartan was an instant classic villain.

Just one question. How DO you use the 3 sea-shells?

Smells faintly of rancid stilton.

Anyone have the DVD version?

They changed Taco Bell to Pizza Hut. Looks ridiculous.

I have the DVD but I've never watched it... you mean they just changed the sign or did they do something else that makes it look very different?

All references to Taco Bell were dubbed to Pizza Hut for the Aussie release :lol The other versions aren't though

I watched this recently on DVD (haven't seen it in years). It's still a great film...very funny and still really entertaining to watch

They dubbed spoken Taco Bell references to Pizza Hut and changed a few logos (they missed one on the window of the restaurant though).

Really? Just the Australian release?

I thought it was changed due to some legal thing.

No it was just the Australian release. This is from DVD compare:

#
OVERALL: R1

for the commentary track and other extras
#

CUTS:

* R1 America - (Warner Bros Home Entertainment) - No cuts
* R2 United Kingdom - (Warner Bros Home Entertainment) - Yes:
- 2 seconds as follows: The showdown between Stallone and Snipes has been slightly trimmed to remove an instance of ear-clapping (this also applies to the Video and Cinema releases).
- All references to Taco Bell are present on this release.
* R4 Australia - (Warner Bros Home Entertainment) - Changed by the distributor:
- All references to Taco Bell have been (badly) overdubbed with references to Pizza Hut.



It was done because Taco Bell isn't popular outside of America. So, erm, it was left in the Euro version because...? We don't have Taco Bell over here. At all :lol

As the DVD Compare quote says, the UK version is censored (fucking BBFC!) so the US version is the best one to get (sounds about normal tbh)

This was on TV not too long ago...still a good movie. Arnold being president is just hilarious.

:lol Who knew?

Demolition Man is just hilarious...it really needs a proper DVD release. The Stallone/Snipes confrontations were intense, the shit talking was on point, and the Dennis Leary rant was classic. Oh yeah, Sanda Bullock was hot as fuck in that evening dress. I'd virtually do her anytime. :lol

I remember this funny quote when Snipes opens one of the sewer manholes, takes a sniff and goes "Ooooh shit, smells like biscuits & gravy".

and the Dennis Leary rant was classic.

Edgar Friendly: You got that right. You see, according to Cockteau's plan, I'm the enemy because I like to think. I like to read, I'm into freedom of speech and freedom of choice. I'm the kind of guy that could sit in a greasy spoon and wonder gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs or the side order of gravy fries. I want high cholesterol. I would eat bacon and butter and buckets of cheese. OK. I want to smoke Cuban cigars the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section. I want to run through the streets naked with green Jell-O all over my body reading Playboy magazine. Why, because I might suddenly feel the need to. OK? Pal, I've seen the future. Know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his pajamas, sipping a banana-broccoli shake, singing 'I'm the Oscar Meyer wiener'. You live up top, you live how he wants. Your other choice: come down here and maybe starve to death.
