As head of security at the Forest Ridge Mall, Ronnie Barnhardt (Seth Rogen) takes his job very seriously, enforcing mall rules with an iron fist. When a flasher strikes Forest Ridge, Ronnie sees a chance to display his unappreciated cop skills and bring the felon to justice, and, at the same time, impress his dream girl (Anna Faris) and win a coveted spot at the police academy.

A great movie, and one of the only movies I like Seth Rogen in. I have the old blu, but I'll pick this up if they make it worth my while.

[HipsterTrash]

God I hope Foot Fist Way gets a blu soon. That and this film are perfect double bill material and Jody Hill needs to get back to making films like this.

[KillerCannibal]

Odd, since this already has an existing BD that looks good and has a decent amount of bonus features.

[Mike Flynn]

My favorite comedy of the 21st century. I wore out my old Blu pretty well, definitely in for this.

I believe the 2009 blu-ray release has been out of print for many years (although used copies don’t seem hard to find).

Original edition was fine and had extras as mentioned. I'd prefer new catalog titles or upgrades that could use a new scan, etc.

[PopPunkNerd182]

Kills me that this isn't a 4K release. One of the most underrated comedies.

Where Is My Mind will never be the same.

I didn't realize the previous edition had gone OOP, but as you say, they appear available and relatively inexpensive. Unless Shout improves on it significantly, I may have to grab one of those.

Is the original DI not available?

[notops]

I was going to buy it anyways, but an interview with Jody Hill is icing on the cake. One of my favorite directors, and for my money one of the very best working in television today.

Great they got a Hill interview, disappointed Shout didn't get the trailer on here.

I recommend you ask them to include it (TV spots as well). Sometimes what I like to do is collect every known trailer and commercial to a film on YouTube to a film I like, just in case a boutique decides to do a new edition of a film and share it with them.

I took the liberty of making one myself:

Was really excited for a second as I assumed a 4K was on the way. Bummer. Still awesome to see this getting some love!

I'm good with my Warner Bros Blu-ray.

Same. Not double dipping for $25+. Current Warner disc looks fine enough.

I plan to wait for some screen caps.
