Are there any products other than DVDs in which the companies try to rip off and gouge the customers this much? I know books, video games, and cars all get re-released but the DVD industry has to be the worst.

I must say the alternate ending was a hoot. But what can 1 minute really add? More of the all male carwash or more of the carwash across the street?

Either way, not double dipping for this one cos the first release was just fine.

Suffice it to say, if it can be done, leave it to a greedy and lazy company to try and make a fast buck.

I liked this movie and all, but I already own a copy of it. It doesn't merit a double dip to me.

Personally, I enjoyed the "Triangle of Shame," and am surprised they cut that out.

I rented this to see if I wanted to buy it, and during the commentary track it's suggested that there might be another edition. That was enough to make me hold off. Although at this point I'm not sure I even want it anymore.

Heh. Me too. That cracked me up. It cracks me up thinking about it now. Hmm, maybe I need to watch that DVD again.

I believe it's a 60 second close-up of Justin Long's balls swelling.

Maybe this release will come with a giant inflatable Ben Stiller?

On second thought...

Where? I've been looking for a price drop on this one. Previously viewed?

I just don't see a point to this.... What are they trying to tie in? The only movie on the horizon with either lead actor is Vaughn in Wedding Crashers and it comes out a month before the DVD. So I'm really at a loss on the purpose of this release.

All the extras look pretty much the same as the original and, IMO, it wasn't that good of a movie to deserve a double-dip...

They ought to have two balls on the cover for this one. One can be blue and the other purple to represent the pounding some buyer's wallets are taking for an extra minute of this movie. Should all of this shite been on the first disc.

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but specs list the aspect ratio of this disc at 1.85:1 eventhough the original DVD (and, I assume, its theatrical presentation) was 2.35:1. What's up with that?

Ditto, stop re-re-releasing titles and get around to releasing titles for the first time.

Why? The other 92 minutes of the movie already do that.

And I wonder if there are existing scenes that were replaced with "unrated" ones, so that it's not just 1 extra minute. Watch- it'll just be one of the existing deleted scenes edited back in, and since the MPAA didn't review that cut scene, it's now "Unrated".

Grrrrrrr.....

I just saw a TV ad for this. The only thing different shown in the ad was the cheerleaders from the major dodgeball competion getting soaked by a shower (or sprinklers) while writhing against one another and trying to stare all sexy-like at the camera. Woulda made a nice throw-away deleted scene but doesn't inspire me to buy a whole new release of a film I already like as-is.
