It contains both the Theatrical and the Director's cut. The director's cut is actually shorter than the theatrical at 116 minutes(confirmed by IMDB) so the 117 minute cut is the one you want to get.

I can confirm that as well.  My disc shows 1:56 for the Director's Cut and 1:57 for theatrical.

Seriously, my day is totally made because of this. Hell, my entire time here at Rifftrax has been made because of this. I now know what it is to have your favorite movie of all time riffed. It's a very special thing. Time to brush off the dust on my massive Alien Quad set (not that dust usually has any time to accumulate on it).

Yes this is for the theatrical edition.
Netflix lists a 'Collectors Edition'.. Is that the same as the Theatrical?

If i remember correctly the collectors edition is both

Yes, and to clarify further. This is the version that was used as reference:

It contains both the Theatrical and the Director's cut. The director's cut is actually shorter than the theatrical at 116 minutes(confirmed by IMDB) so the 117 minute cut is the one you want to get. (But personally...for $10 you get both versions to be safe, and you get to own a true classic. I would just buy the double disc, or even the Quad, which I plan on doing as soon as I can justify paying money for Alien 3 and Resurrection :P )

You can buy the triple pack with is half the price of the quadrology AND you'd only have to justify buying Alien 3.

  Sorry, RVR. I don't intend on making you feel bad over Dune. I'm just very, very, very, VERY happy right now (in case it wasn't obvious).

  And not in "that way", you sickos.

Well, maybe a little.....
