Ugh...so a $13.99 single disc or a $27.99 2 disc, with probably an hour of special features. And just to think, a couple years ago the Matrix films got packed 2 disc special editions at a single disc price...

I can't see anyone buying the 2 disc set of this movie. But nonetheless, I will be buying the 1 disc of this guilty pleasure.

I expect that the 2-disc Special Edition will contain a few more extras than the featurettes we posted earlier this morning.
Stay tuned for the official press release soon.

What gets me is that they chopped out a good deal of footage from the final release print, and NONE of it will be included with the two-disc DVD.
You woulda thought that was a no-brainer.

Reminds you of something else, no?
