I'm tempted to do it today, but I'm in a position such that I will wait for my CC to cycle before I order it.

CC?

what does that stand for? Obviously not Criterion Collection...well for this..lol.

Credit Card.

and what does he mean by Cycle?

He probably means the next time he sends in a payment, so there will be a little more money on it.

Statement closes on Amex at the beginning of the month. It doesn't really change what I owe, it just makes me feel better.

Ooooh...ok. yeah, well...if I don't have the cash for it, I don't get it. Damn my obsession w/ films. It dominates my bank account.

Its an AMEX, I pay the balance every month, it holds no balance. Jeez guys. Its a psychological thing for me.

I say buy it. It's probably the best Blu-ray disc of the year.

Indeed. If starving college film student can buy all the shit he does...and if I didn't all the nonsense crap I buy I wouldn't be starving...you can too!

Are you referring to me?

....actually I'm talking about myself. I'm the film school student. And the "you can too!" comment is to everyone....

ahh, ok

I broke down and ordered this since I can't wait for October. We need more Hitchcock on BD.

You got that right!!

You are correct, strange internet person. The case and the cover on it is a lot better looking when you literally have it.

Also..the BD is......awesomeness.

I can easily wait until next month for this, what I CAN'T wait for is the Psycho Legacy documentary. I love comprehensive documentaries, especially ones that cover films that haven't really been covered before. I can't wait to hear about Psycho's 2, 3 and 4!

LOL! If you think I'm strange, head on over to the forums at blu-ray.com and read the steelbook area. Its my watermark for "anal" and given online forums, that's really saying something!

Definitely much more attractive in person than in the stock photograph.

The artwork isn't hideous but it's about the content not the packaging for me ... so they can't keep their over-priced 'steelcase' editions. IF I were into packaging, the day that I'm looking for covers with circles with the number 15 in it is not upon us.

In ways, I agree. To be fair, I really doubt I would've purchased the exclusive if it hadn't only been £.30 more than the regular packaging, which is currently £11.87 (~$20 shipped) at Amazon UK right now.

...and if you're interested in content, the Steelbook is the only version with the 20 page booklet, that is why I got it.

I finally ordered the Steelbook earlier this week. Can't wait to get it, hopefully this week.

Blu-ray.com review - The Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode is not included.

UK BD for the win...yay for us that got it.
