I held off on buying the Superbit until I could find a good price/discount, so this is one occassion where it actually pays off! Usually I end up in the 'I just bought the other DVD and now they're announcing a newer better version' camp.

Show me a beautiful woman, and I'll show you a guy who is tired of screwing her...

Different consumers targeted? The recent re-release is a downgrade to foolscreen only. Hopefully, the new SE will be an upgrade.

The Superbit is fine for me.

You were holding off for a better price than $9.99????

Well, I'll be returning the Superbit to BB now.

I missed out on the BestBuy sale; I meant that I hadn't bought it all this time because it's usually $20+.

I actually upgraded to the Superbit from the previous version. I was willing to lose the extras for the better PQ and the DTS, and I'm glad I did, so I can't see me triple dipping :)

Seriously, and at what point are they going to release the SE? Next Summer? Sorry, can't go that long without this movie. :)

might double-dip on this one, depending on the extras and so on. great movie. anyone else think the current re-release cover of this movie is terrible? saw it the other day at Borders.

CD-Wow has the Superbit for $6.95 shipped if you go through the $2 discount link (just search for it on Google).:)

Are we still without an SE release?
I saw about to buy the green cover version the other day. Did someone post that the green cover is full-screen only, or is it a flipper with both versions like the original?

Full-screen only; another meaningless Columbia/Sony downgrade.

Sweet! I'm glad I held out on this film. It may be my favorite film that I don't own.

Well as attractive as most of these women are, looks are not everything. There's something called emotions and chemistry.

Dang, I'm off to track down an original release copy then!

DonnachaOne 05-08-06 12:09 AM

It is one of my favourite films. I look forward to a new treatment, but I am happy enough with my existing DVD. It will last me until Blu-ray.

Fok 05-08-06 01:12 AM

Yeah I'll wait until the new format takes shape :)
