I think that dvd is one of the best dvds released on the market, that is just coming from me since I think some would differ. As for that scan, that is obviously the original Polygram pressing, which is more collectible than the Universal issue. One of the reasons is the insert is different and features most of the characters in the film, also there is a difference in the covers as well. Though, the Universal release will probably become collectible as well if the new CE features a new transfer.

DVD Planet lists the three different versions (Wide, Full, Collectors), but it looks like the regular versions will be one disc and the "gift set" version is two discs. Interesting...really looking forward to an official announcement on this.

i'm sure the gift set will include more than just a second disc. paying $30 extra for just an extra disc doesn't make sense.. and it's supposed to be a gift set, which usually entails something non-DVD that you get with it.

True, but I don't want anything other than the disc contents, and I'll be upset if I have to pay $20-$30 extra for a second disc and some non-DVD item that I don't want.

My favorite comedy of all time, but I probably wont double dip on this one. A special edition with the coen brothers usualy means a 9:00 featurette.
Hopefully this will be the movie they actually cave and give us some real extras, but I'm not holding my breath.

No....I mean, is he serious about there being a sequal?
