Don't forget to get Death Proof pre-ordered, comes out in 10 days

Too bad "Mr. Brooks" and "30 Days of Night" are cancelled, I really wanted to add those 2 to my cart this morning.
I decided to skip Strip Mind and order Death Proof instead, since I later heard it's going to be a Steelbook (it doesn't say in the listing at Amazon.de). When Jester said he scored Strip Mind for 21 Euros (so did Kannisto, I see) that was the clincher, I might buy it later for that.

I saw this last night. Kannisto was right on. The movie played very choppy at 1080p24, so I switched to 1080p60 and it seemed smoother. I think this is encoded at 1080i60 or possibly even 1080i50. Story had lot of potential, but execution was very amateurish.

Thanks for the OPs original post and comments on the film which made me take a look at it.

Its now 5,90 euros and I took the plunge, see Amazon.de, can't post the URL because I have not made 10 posts yet!
