I don't know how I feel about this. I'm a cheap son of a ***** and this is the most I will have ever paid for a single movie. I talked myself out of Enemy Mine from TT at $35. I decided to just let it go for once and make the purchase since it is an old favorite of mine from childhood and I respected the above & beyond effort that went into making this release happen. Hell, I even threw in a few bucks to help another member get a copy.
I don't care how many copies they make or how limited it is, to me it is about justifying the price and I think the price point could definitely be lower with a higher production run...not cut in half or anything drastic but definitely lower. Even a $5 reduction in price would have gone a long way in my book. I'll still keep my pre-order as long as I can fight off my cheap tendencies until it is released...but dammit, now I'm thinking I might be able to get this cheaper down the road...aside from cheap, I can also be patient...
