Count me in the crowd of disgruntled moviegoers who didn't have the chance to see this at the theater. Can't wait to see it.

Can't wait to own this title. I want to see it again, and I want to show my support for Arnofsky. Awesome movie...I had to travel 90 minutes to see it, but it was well worth it.
