Michael Jackson's Thriller - 10 minute version anywhere?

I was just wondering if the full 10 minute (video version) arrangement of Thriller has ever been released officially.

I know there are bootleg copies of the video ripped as an audio track, but I always want to buy official versions, simply because the mastering quality is a lot better.

I prefer the video arrangement, so would really like to get this somehow.

Does anyone know?

According to the reviews this version has the full Thriller video;

Or this;

I don't know, but does the song actually run for 10 minutes?

It doesn't run for the full duration of the video.

No, you are correct, the song actually runs for about 8-9 minutes of the entire 14 minute video...

The video arrangement is so much better. All the verses are first, then there is a big build up towards the end when the chorus comes. Admittedly the gap between the two vocal sections is very long and for audio track purposes I think that should be reduced.

Can't believe it's out AGAIN !!

If you needs the videos, there are two MJ dvds & the album was remastered in 2003.

What, is it re-remastered
