I won't be buying it but I LOVE that cover art. Some of the most impressive I've ever seen! The ambigram for "The Princes Bride" is great!

I was going to post the same comment about the sweet cover art. Very clever. A 20th anniversary HD version would be appropriate. The Blu-ray planned for 2/13/07 release was postponed -- http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/princessbride.html .
Anyway, a brief list of the extras for this edition is here:

I seriously ordered the special edition of this from ch.com a couple of hours ago. I gotta learn to do some research on newer versions coming out -- that's the way it goes, eh?

I still have the old SE. At this point I may as well wait until I get HD since by that time it should be out on either format. I am tempted by the cover art, though. A DTS track might sway me easily.

That artwork is so cool, I'd buy a poster for the theater room.
Since CH never had the DPR edition, I had held off on buying. Looks like this one is on my shopping list. Or, maybe I should wait for the super-duper 30th Anniversary (after the Format War is finally over ...) Edition.
Inconceivable!

Every time I'm just about to buy a new version of The Princess Bride to replace the original non-anamorphic, extras-free release I have, MGM releases yet another version.
The cool cover art may get me to finally jump this time, however...

I don't really care if the art is the only new thing as long as it has all the stuff from the Dread Pirate/Buttercup edition and a new transfer. If it loses features from the newer edition, though, then that would probably dissuade me until it was dirt cheap.
