I went to the store to see it, but bravely resisted buying it (as well as the second season of The Simpsons).

You went to the store to see it?
Get help Simon. Please. For my sake.
Also, surely this is the most pointless thread ever? "I've bought a can of coke, but I haven't drunk it yet. Anyone else?"
As a kerazy idea, why don't you watch it Jeff? Eh?Watch it, and then tell us what you think. That way, some sort of interest is created. Yes. Go and do that now.

Heh, he comes back in 24 hours:
"Ok, I watched it....but it never moved or did anything interesting. It just sat there on the shelf... staring at me, mocking me, with the sun glinting off its side. What. I'm supposed to put the DVD in something?"

I'm disappointed that the DVD lacks a special feature with deleted scenes, like Sulu's promotion or the line about Saavik's heritage.

Wasn't Sulu's promotion seen so completely unsalvagable that they most likely scrapped it?

I ordered the DVD from Amazon.com, but it hasn't shipped yet.
I saw a list of the features, though, and apparently they've added five minutes of footage to the movie. Would that qualify as "deleted scenes"?

I think the 5 minutes of extra footage means that the movie is the ABC TV version, with the extras stuff about Preston being Scotty's nephew, and Savik and Spock having a quick chat in Vulcan while Kirk tours the engine room.

Yes, the scene with Preston being Scotty's nephew is in the movie. The Vulcan chat is on the normal TWOK DVD too.
But the TMP Director's Cut for example had an extra DVD with all the scenes, they didn't use for the movie. I would have expected the same treatment for TWOK.
