Countdown to double dip complaints......5....4...3.....

^ 2...1...

Could the studios be any more greedy? I love this movie, but one extra minute of footage is not worth a double dip.

at this point what is the box office total that a fox movie must make to merit a double dip?

Wow, a whole minute! I can't wait! Where's the cheapest place to preorder?

I just got the current one for $5, and I don't see any reason to upgrade

I wonder if that extra minute will make the movie funny?

It might. However, it will certainly make Fox laugh their guts out everytime they see a sale register on their computers.

How is it an "easter egg" when you put it in the announcement?

I love this movie. It cracks me up. But one extra minute? Really?

What you're all forgetting though is that its an UNRATED minute. That means sixty full seconds of coitus, f-words, penises, headbutts (UK Only), gore, tits, sodomy, bile, and vaginas.

It's only a matter of time till some studio boasts that their unrated director's cut has a whole 30 seconds of deleted footage added. Thanks, but I'll pass on this one. There are way too many catalog titles in dire need of simply an anamorphic enhancement.

What took so long?

Day After Tomorrow
Man on Fire
I Robot

This looks like Fox Home Entertainment's new business model.
I can see it now: in time for Christmas.
Sideways

Anyway, I learned after ‘Day After Tomorrow’ to wait.

Glad I didn't buy dodgeball yet, although I wasn't waiting for this... I just missed the opening week price and didn't want to pay full price. I never expected a second release of this movie.

I have the current disc, really enjoyed the movie but, I am in no way buying it again.

Supposedly an ultra extended edition is also in the works. That one will run 94 minutes.

....so I'm gonna hold off.

I love the film but the current version is enough. Moreso for the fine image on the spine that i dare never part with.

Keep your extra minute,i will stick with the current release.

I got mine FREE from FOX and I'm still not upgrading

Is that the Extreme edition that comes in a metal case or is that the next one?

i held off on this DVD because of the 2 watered down jokes, so i will definitely be picking this up now.

Loved the movie, but no way I'm double dipping for it. Even if it was 20 minutes more of footage and other features, I'm happy with what I have and don't feel there would be anything new that would warrant the dip for me.

I'm hoping for more male-on-male action.

I think I'll pass on this one. The only reason to upgrade would be for the new extra features.

I'll buy it only if they restore the original ending back into the movie. It had me laughing out loud. The best part of the entire damn movie.
