Specs include 1080p/VC-1 video and only English Dolby Digital-Plus 5.1 Surround (sorry, no high-res audio).

Extras are also slim, with only a pair of featurettes and the trailer.

MSRP is $39.98.

this was a good movie, I had read the book and then saw it in the theaters, this has the potential to be a great looking movie in terms of PQ and it has a great soundtrack too!

What's with the little display feet on the cover box? I have one case with those stupid display feet on it, and I absolutely hate it...I realizes it's nit-picking but they looks so stupid.

What are you talking about? I'm

A great film. The extras may look a bit thin, but if some work has gone into them they may be quite interesting. Shame about the lack of a commentary though.

This along with Zodiac: Directors Cut (and the region free aspect) are why I've finally plumped to go red this Christmas.

It amazes me how many people sit and actually stare at their hd dvd cases and get bothered by how they look. Cover art, disc art, and now this. In actuality, the only thing that people should really gripe about would be if for some reason the spine was really messed up or illegible. This is the only part of the dvd that is displayed for extended periods of time, at least in my household. I don't know many people that display dvds with the cover showing. People complaining about things that are only visible for the limited amount of time that it takes for the disc to be inserted into the drive, are retarded.

I also loved the book, but haven't seen the movie. Might blind buy this one.

i haven't seen this yet, but i really want to.

awesome movie! great book! there are some spectacular nature shots in this movie, I hope the PQ is good!

[crazyfatrobot]

Wow that is a spectacularly bland and slapped together looking cover. Don't the graphic designers that work for these studios take any pride in their work? Leather borders? Really?

Seriously. It looks like an iMovie theme. Especially the back.

'screenplay and directed by Sean Penn'

That sounds a bit awkward.
