And when are we going to get extras announced for this title? This blu comes out in a month.

I'm hoping that since the list price is $24.99, we will be getting some extras.

MGM catalog titles usually seem to have a list price of $19.99 (unless they go all out like Platoon, Fiddler On The Roof, or Dances With Wolves).

I agree HuggyBear, this is actually a pretty decent cover. Maybe the head should have been a bit smaller

Dustin Hoffman is badass in this film, the rest of the cast is great too!

Yeah, SEPT and OCT are going to be the two most expensive months for me since I've been collecting blu-rays (since last Xmas). Not to mention some dvds on that list too.

Compared to some of the awful covers we've seen, it indeed isn't as bad. Still, the original poster art was iconic enough to be replicated for the (shudder) remake, so it would be nice to have the same art for the BD, and not what seems to be the cover for a Dustin Hoffman western.
