The version I got was the Directors Cut of Legend.
Also just watched Salt. Pretty good political thriller with lots of action & intrigue. I think it was the theatrical version I watched, but it also had the uncut directors & uncut extended versions on them.
I would guess that due to the ending, there might be a sequel?
As usual Angelina Jolie was looking very nice. She looked like she could kick serious butt.

Lexx Episode 1
This is some weird s???! Lexx is a little gem from 1995. Holy cow! 1995, I'm gettin' old. Anyhoo... there's a lot of flavors here. I taste a bit o' Doctor Who, a hint o' Firefly, maybe some BBC Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy... and maybe a pinch of Riddick? It's funny, it's a little twisted, and it's ambitious. With a wee bit o' suspension of disbelief, there's a lot to be enjoyed here. I would imagine many might find the dated CGI a nuisance, but personally; I find it to be endearing. Lexx is definitely over the top, and reeks of B movie; but that's it's charm. I'm gonna have to see it through to discover whether or not Lexx takes itself seriously.

P.S. It’s a Germany Production, IIRC.. Which makes it BBC-ish w/o the British Accents and fish & chips jokes. And an all-round better production value.

Lexx is a gem. Use to watch it all the time on the Sci-Fi channel. That and MST3000.

Yeah, it comes off as very B movie-ish at times, but at the same time; some of the shots of the Lexx itself and alien landscapes are inspired and quite impressive.

Just finished Lexx episode two. It continues to be awesome. Great shower scene with Zev.  I almost fell over with the appearance of Tim Curry.  Didn't see that one coming.
