man, we are really get ripped on "special editions" of DePalma these days...Two movies I think a lot of people have been waiting for, this and Scarface, and both are major let downs---no commentaries? no deleted scenes? Ahh, yes, I guess the big wigs in the tall glass buildings know people will pay either way.

That cover is ridiculous with Pacinos face. Why selective lighting? Why not just show his ankles or something. I mean it says PACINO!!!! in big freaking letters. J6P knows who it is by the name. I dont understand this.

They must be trying to attract not just the Joe Sixpack crowd, but now Joe Illiterate as well.

It's hard to believe that in the era of sloppy 'big head' photoshop rushjob covers, that they actually bothered to go back and manipulate the original poster art... it really looks quite terrible!!!

I'm buying it! I could careless how horrific the cover art is or the lack of extras with a new transfer and a $19.99 MSRP asking for anything else is just being greedy!
