Bought it yesterday. This has to be one of the nicest put together packagings I've seen for a DVD in quite a while:
The slipcover looks fantastic, one of the best I've ever seen, and they even saw fit to put different artwork on the keepcase. (booklet on the right is the borders exclusive, 16 pages long, packaged inside like Pan's Labyrinth)
I really hope they will eventually release the director's cut on DVD sooner or later, by all means it should be a vastly improved cut of the film (running time could possibly be up to 150 minutes from what I've read, and that's without the removed ending)

Unless of course theres one hell of an easter egg on there.

Is that what it was ringing up? I know the 3-disc sets are stickered at $34.99, but they were on-sale release week for $22.99. There is also a $5.00 coupon you can get off this website. I picked up the 3-disc version for $17.99+tax. Sometimes Best Buy lets their sale prices for new releases carry over the following week, so you might still be able to get it for alot less than what they have it stickered for.
