I remember when Special Editions or Collector's Editions were just that...you paid more, and for the money, you received more in the way of audio/video content. If I want screen grabs, I'll use PowerDVD and make my own. If I want plastic toys (which I abhor) I'll go to Wal-Mart. If I want a pedestrian book on the making of the film, I'll go to official website and get the same thing for free.

You want me to pay more? Then you give up the goods as well, and make a set that is stuffed with insight and archival footage and interviews and tests and all the other things film buffs love.

There's no tangible difference between the Gift Set and Single-Disc, besides a bunch of mass produced junk with no serious value whatsoever.

Single disc for me, thanks. If Warner Bros wants to make a gift set with additional video or audio features, then I'll consider it. Leave the toys, comics, and .02 cent lobby cards to those who dig that sort of thing.
Thanks for reminding me of why I do NOT have to buy the special edition...

Its just not that special.

For a moment I was about to get caught up in the hype. Regular Edition for me.

Also I don't know about the rest of you but I kinda want to wait to see reviews of it before I actually pay for it. I want to know if they do use the HD DVD version or if Warner actually did some work and developed the Bluray Version from the ground up (which is how everyone should be doing it).

I've got it in my shopping list on Amazon but it won't make it into the cart unless I've 100% certain that this is a significant improvement over the HD DVD version.
