They need to recut it to flesh out the story. It felt too abrupt and not just the ending; the whole concept was not explained or explored enough. Of course I thought that they'd make it as a TV series - a very expensive TV series.

I wanted to see it at the theater but missed it so I'm looking forward to picking this one up.

Plenty of extras also so that should satisfy some that have been complaining about lack of extras on Fox titles (unless they change it at the last minute ).

I'm a sucker and it looked cool -- I'll blind buy and sell it if I don't like. As soon as amazon gets it up, that is.

Besides, do the words Rachel Bilson mean anything to anyone else?

If by "bombed really bad" you mean that it made its money back domestically and another $100 million+ internationally

Well, while the movie version is approved by Steven Gould (he wrote a new novel about Jamie Bell's character), they're totally expecting to do this as a trilogy. In the book there are no hunters (except the NSA that wants to use him as an agent), and there are no other jumpers, and he physically has to visit a place, looking at a picture won't do. And his mother isn't evil, she gets blown up in a plane hijacking

The movie was definately missing about 20 minutes

I'd say the disc is done and locked at this point

I'm sure we'll get a director's cut when the sequel arrives.

I didn't say it bombed financially or in the box office.

It's an owner! I agree that the ending was very unresolved but I suppose it's just a sent up for the next movie. I'll pick it up release day.

Sadly I have to agree. The worst first half of a film I've seen in a long time . I don't mind brainless fun flicks, but at least a little bit of character development so we can actually relate (if not like) to the lead would help.

A New Fox title without a Digital Copy? I was hoping for a DC. Rachel Bilson is so hot

Snakes on a plane is genius, WTF are you talking about? Even Samual Jackson said so himself. Its a movie about Snakes on a Plane. If you go see it and expect a philosophical explanation of life, you FAIL at LIFE.

That said, Snakes on a plane was awsome, and a throw back at old school scary movies like " The blob", or " It came from outer space".

A good friend told me it would have been a great movie if they hadn't oversimplified a complex plot...
