i enjoyed this movie alot

also kudos to the 34.95 pricetag by universal that means this movie will be about 25 on release date

I love Tina Fey but she needs to stay far away from SNL.

I'm not saying that it would've changed anything because I thought this was mediocre that I forgot all about it.

Looks like Universal has dropped all extras from this release. Only thing present is U-Control, Commentary and My Scenes. I'll pop my copy in later to see if the "missing" features are present during U-Control...but it would suck to lose the Deleted scenes and Alternate ending.

Originally it was announced with (along with the DVD)
Extras will include: "Audio Commentary with writer/director Michael McCullers and actors Tina Fey and Amy Poehler,"
"From Conception to Delivery: The Making of Baby Mama," a "Saturday Night Live: Legacy of Laughter" featurette, "Deleted Scenes," and an "Alternate Ending."

They are dropped, at least some of it. I'll post my review shortly.

It was planned for BD50, now it's a BD25 with less features. This is the 4th time Universal has changed dropped features and went with BD25. Makes you wonder what in the world is going on?

[GizmoDVD]

Now we have the following BDs with dropped features from Universal:
End of Days
U-571
Baby Mama
Heroes Season 1
The Scorpion King

Both Mummys also dropped Theatrical Trailers...but no huge biggie for those.

So are we ready to admit there is an issue getting ample amount of BD50's?

[Geonosis]

Also Doomsday which was Unrated/Theatrical originally on BD50 but switched to BD25 with Unrated. Also Scorpion King 2 abandoned all features and reverted to BD25.

...so literally every Universal BD release with the exception of Miami Vice (which still lacks the Theatrical cut from the DVD side of the HD DVD combo)?

BD50 used in Heroes Season 1, Season 2, Miami Vice and both Mummy films.

I think they have limited access to BD-50's, so they have to decide which get downgraded, and which stay as is.

Preview of Season 3 from Heroes Season 2 BD set was cut as well. Ugh.
