I will not be able to watch this until the following Tuesday unless I want to watch it at a low volume. In other words, no. Damn it. Could they have picked a worse time to come?

Tell them to go out to dinner.

ah, thanks, mifune! i didn't spot a listing for it on the site here, so no way to read the back and check..although i do see the uk version is listed as having all five discs. don't think i've seen a normal-sized 5-disc steelbook before, though..

That won't work. They are the type where if I don't go with them and I make some excuse I will never hear the end of it. Might as well just wait. Grrrrr.

It was more ridicule than anything else

Then even better. Tell them you've got a great movie for all of you to watch together as a family.

I don't know if you're being sarcastic now, or whther you aren't familar with what sarcasm actually means.

who knows?

Maybe I just came in here to piss in cereal?

Maybe I don't like Yojimbo.

Maybe I hate BBT being used as teaching material.

In the end, asking about Amazon's Pre-order Price Guarantee policy is a broken record on Blu-Ray.com

You will not get the lowest price. If you order something on Amazon, they will automatically charge you the highest price that it was ever listed on at their site. Furthermore, if you try to contact Amazon, you will get a full-articulated English speaking representative that will try everything in their power to NOT give you what you are asking for. This applies double if they see you have commented on a Blu-Ray message board asking if there is a way for you to get a lower price.

With Amazon being such an un-established, fly by night, company that has only been around for the past 6 months, I am surprised how many questions still are asked about their pre-order policy. They are only out there to create one time customers that never want you to return so they will not help you at all and they will charge you the highest price they possibly can.

This guy is full of it. ^

While that works in theory, it cannot be played at the appropriate volume with them. That is unacceptable.

I read a detailed breakdown of the new scenes, and I don't agree with the review that they are unnecessary and don't add anything. Read about them at containsmoderateperil.com if you want spoilers. And I surely don't see how they lower the grade of the movie, not that I care about a reviewer's score, except maybe on PQ and AQ, since those are less subjective.

those can be just as subjective...grain, director's intent etc all are subjective

They didn't change the price on my order. It's still $24.99. I sended them a mail but they told me that the price had never changed. Are there people who bought it last night for $19.96?

Amazon never raises prices a few days before release...if anything they almost always lower it...wonder why it increased by $5?...isn't Walmart still charging $19.96?...

It was still $19.96 when I cancelled my 3D version & placed an order for the 2D version.
