vicant,
Huh? "STL"? What's that? No, seriously. I don't know.

I am definitely on the hook for this version! I saw Underworld in the theater and felt that it had great potential, yet somehow still fell a little flat. Watching it again on video I hoped that maybe I would pick up something that I had previously missed, but again felt that the characters were not very well fleshed out and that the story was missing a few crucial elements. I am actually a little more interested in the re-edited scenes as opposed to the extra scenes. Hopefully a rental store will pick this one up so that I can take a look without making the buying plunge.

D'oh! "Share the love". Here I was trying to figure out what e-tailers had the initials STL in their names.

Not sure if anyone's seen the back cover at Davisdvd yet, but it DOES NOT list the previous 2 commentaries from the original release. I'm a bit disappointed about this. Especially since they supposedly said that it will.
Maybe the 2 commentaries are hidden or something, but I'd be wary about selling off that original release just yet if you want to keep those commentaries.

At least that's what I can see in the future. Hopefully that pans out like that, because I'd like to see more about some of the minor characters from the vampire house and lycan house.

If there is a good deal at the local B+M's then I will definitely get it right away. If not then I will have to think about it because I bought the first release- I just couldn't wait.

Anyhoo, is this option you used still available for someone like, I dunno, me?

Then again, I did the same when I saw TCM way before release date at SAMs. Shortly after I confirmed here that they broke release date I went back (never seen it before but figured what-the-heck) to find all the copies sold.

Well, I didn't know the release date is scheduled in May. I thought...cool...2 discs DVD on a cool movie. I'll just buy it later when I see a hot deal. I wanted to pick up this movie but I'm glad I didn't buy the first edition. I might have to go back there and check again.
Maybe someone can confirm at their local Costco?

Too bad the closest one to me is in Bayamón.

I will definitely be picking up a copy this time. I missed out on buying it on sale when it was first released because I didn't see it but then I saw the movie and thought it was very good! Therefore, I will surely buy this version!
