Special cover for The Rundown

Since most b&m places have "The Rundown" for the same price this week, I thought I would mention something I noticed today. Forgive me if this has been mentioned in reviews, but there seems to be a special cover for it like the one they did for "Cabin Fever." No fancy holograph, but some stores had a version with a special slip cover while others just had the normal case.

Since I didn't see any web vendors denoting different options for sale besides fullscreen and widescreen, I thought people might like to know this here. I have no idea if it's a limited edition or something.

I've seen this happen with several recent releases....first to come to mind is the Pirates of the Caribbean dvd. The first couple shipments to stores have a slipcover, then later shipments are without the slipcover. Dont know why, or if this is something done by the stores and not the distributors?

Its pretty nifty, it almost makes me forget the lack of an insert (yeah yeah I know every universal dvd lacks them)

I didn't know it came with a special cover until I saw it today at Best Buy. Hopefully my copy from Columbia House will also have the special cover.

I got mine from BB and it had the slip. It's cool because its foil and the cover is just regular. I think Columbia is fond of these (One Upon A Time In Mexico) and they co-did the film with Universal who also did one for Scarface, it gives it a nice touch.

My review copy had a slip cover, my copy for a friend from Columbia House did not.
