Can't wait to see the munchkin suicide in HD!

And I'm excited for this title.

Nice article and I would love to own this on BD but, I will be holding off until WB comes to there senses and release a BD only version. I just don't need all the other fluff that comes in this package. It is great to hear that is is going to look amazing!

Must own for me. Day 1 buy. I only wish every team of "restorers" took this much time and effort with each title.

Dammit Mike Palmer! Now you have given me second thoughts about sticking to my guns and waiting for the movie-only (aka, sans crap) version of this! This sounds like it will be utterly fantastic! And Warner is putting so much time and money into making it fantastic, maybe I should get off my under-$20 rule and thank them by ponying up the bucks?!

I'm going to have to think on this one really hard!

The writer of the article said something interesting to me...did he not say "And the crazy part is that they aren’t done..."

How is this thing going to be ready for September 29th if they aren't done?

I'll probably just head up to canada and pick this up, sans crap. It's only a few hours north of the town I grew up in, and I'll be up there when this is released.
