I'm surprised the "What" in the tagline isn't a "Who".

If they are doing a 2 discer then that means that a certain amount of people liked it and are willing to see more of it.


Or it could be a digital copy?!

Yea, the 1st podcast they did after the movie opened was pretty brutal to listen too. Luckily, it was only 1 show and they were back in form after that one.
I really hope they do a commentary for the movie.

knowing kev, we'll prob get a ton of deleted scenes, and maybe a feature length documentary for the movie.

I'm a lover of Kevin Smith's stuff, in real life and on the internet, and I would have loved a solid entry into his canon. This wasn't one.

Jason Mewes, Craig Robinson, and Jeff Anderson were all great, thankfully making the movie watchable. Overall the movie had a great premise, and what appeared to be a great cast, and went nowhere with it. I put it way below Jersey Girl in my personal Kevin Smith Power Rankings.

That said, every dvd he has put out has been a release day purchase for me, and I'm sure this will be as well.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree then....

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree. While I wouldn't rank it as high as the two Clerks movies or Chasing Amy, Zack and Miri didn't disappoint me when it came to quality.

I can't wait. And since it is a Kevin Smith film, you can be sure that it will be stacked with special features.

Since you responded to my post with something other than "Kevin Smith peaked with Clerks" and/or "That guy totally sold out", etc., etc., you are not a Kevin Smith internet hater.

I happen to be a fan of Jersey Girl and am still waiting for his Extended Cut that's was supposed to come out oh so long ago. I don't think it's ever coming out.

I thought this movie was pretty weak as well. It just kind of seemed uneven and rushed. That being said, I'll pick up he blu ray to complete the collection.

Well, until Criterion apparently balked on Chasing Amy, it seemed like his plan was to do "X" anniversary editions for all of his movies.

While it wasn't the caliber of Clerks and Chasing Amy I thoroughly enjoyed it, I'm surprised at how fast it's coming out.

The theatrical cut was the unrated cut.

You mean 'the theatrical cut is the director's cut.'

The film was rated R. I'm sure the deleted scenes will be unrated.

I loved this movie. I didn't love it as much as Clerks or Clerks II but it was my favorite comedy this year. I saw it on opening day and still bring up great scenes all the time.

Yes, that's what I said. I didn't mean to say the theatrical is unrated, I said it is the "unrated" cut. Just more proof of how pointless the phrase unrated is.

..and all deleted scenes are unrated.

As for an "unrated" cut, I'm not sure one exists.

I seem to recall that when Smith submitted the movie to the MPAA, they wouldn't give at "R" without some cuts, but Smith was able to appeal the decision and the R-rated theatrical cut is the one he originally submitted.

Which isn't to say that there won't be an UNRATED version released at some point if Smith or the studio decides to throw some unused footage into the film and not resubmit it to the MPAA.
