Excellent. It sounds a little light on making-of and B-roll, but I'm excited. I saw this movie several times (mostly at dollar theaters) with various friends and it got funnier every time.

I enjoyed it, but it wasn't one of my favorite comedies of the year. Pass.

Absolutely one of my favorite comedies of the year. Defiantly picking it up.

More exclusive features:

over 20 minutes of additional deleted scenes, and BD-Live-enabled functions including My Scenes Sharing, a downloadable featurette ("Inside Sturdy Wings") and a "Ye Old Crest Maker" interactive online widget-maker.

They just couldn't fit the two featurettes on the 50GB disc? Lame.

This was probably my favorite comedy of last year right next to Pineapple Express. Day One purchase from me. I can't wait to see the unrated cut.

No idea, but then again, even if it did it will probably be a Digital Copy.

Getting really tired of studios throwing up content on their servers forcing us to wait several minutes to login (making sure to register first!) and several more to download only to be hit with numerous advertisements. Didn't we want BD to win for more disc space? Forcing this crap is getting on my nerves.

Definite buy for me, really liked this one. I can't imagine what could be added to the unrated cut though. There was already nudity and swearing, maybe they'll add digital blood to the medeival battles? Looking forward to this release.

Oh nevermind, I didn't catch that those features were downloadable. For some reason I thought you meant they were on another disc. Sorry.

But yeah I agree, I don't care for the downloadable stuff.

Still not seen this. I might hold off for the BR then, go see Frost/Nixon instead.

Same here. I thought it was surprisingly funny.

Re: Role Models march 10th

I highly recommend anyone that checks out the disc to watch the deleted and alternate scenes. Nearly all of the alternate scenes are better than what was in the theatrical version. There's alternate scenes of the Chuck E Cheese place with Karen from The Office in it.

The unrated version is 3 minutes longer and none of those 3 minutes are terribly funny, but definitely check out all the deleted scenes. There's also a nice pair of tits in one of the deleted scenes.
