Blind buying this since I am a fan of anything Apatow and Rogan/Franco is a plus!

I like the 1-disc artwork better. I need me some McBride action. The 2-disc looks like Harold & Kumar. Pretty sure I'm getting the 2-disc anyway.

Didn't care much for the movie but I have to say the single disc artwork is much better

Franco alone is enough of a reason to see this movie; the guy is damn funny.

I'll get the 2 disk version. great movie, although I'm not a huge fan of Seth Rogan. Mcbride is worth is alone.

also, doesn't this seem a bit late for this release? it seemed tropic thunder, pineapple express, step-brothers.....all came out around the same time.

I was hoping this would come out by Christmas.

Oh, so much good stuff. This was my favorite comedy this year. I hope to see some store exclusives.

I was a little dissappointed by Pineapple express. I will most likely puick it up, but I didnt think it was anywhere near as enjoyable as Forgetting Sarah Marshall. I definitely like the artwork for the single disc version better than the artwork for the two disc version.

I thought "Zack and Miri" was better, but I'll pick up the Blu-ray eventually.

I was at the screening at Comic Con and was hoping some of the Q&A from there would be on the disc. (Although I'm sure the stuff from the panel was much more entertaining in hindsight.)

Despite my feelings on the overall subject matter of the movie, I loved the thing. It was pretty brilliantly done. Can't wait to see all the extras! Danny McBride stole the entire movie.

I got the 1 disc Unrated version (which includes the Unrated and theatrical versions) and I'm afraid that the audio is all out of sync throughout, not matching lips (with unrated as well as theatrical version). When I pause the DVD and play again, it plays fine for a couple minutes, but then goes back out of synch. I tested some other dvds and there was no audio problem with my DVD player and my audio/receiver. Is this just like a rare case of my receiver/dvd player and this Pineapple Express DVD not handling each other?

Well, just be on the look-out for anyone that buys/rents this dvd. Keep a close eye on the audio being in synch with the lips...thanks!

Same. Wasn't expecting to care for Sarah Marshall, but got into it, loved it, and ended up buying it. Not so much for Pineapple Express.

You know, I dig Seth Rogen, but I've yet to embrace one of his movies-- those in which he plays the primary character. Tried to get into Knocked Up, but never really felt it. And now Pineapple Express has done little for me. Good enough for a single viewing, but nothing I would care to own.

Great movie, but I think I'll wait for it to go on sale. I've got to start spending so much money on movies.

Have you tried it in a different DVD player? That should give you an answer

It's kind of a difficult movie to make exclusives for. I mean, sure, a third bonus disc would have been cool. What other freebies could they really offer, though? Free rolling papers? Cannibis leaf car air freshener? Daewoo-shaped DVD case?
