Well, will you or will you not see "Toy Story 3?"

That true! Nicolas Cage is the same thing too.

Tom Hanks needs to do more Comedy. Leave it on the shelves.

Hate to burst the bubble of anyone who's planning to import the UK Blu-ray, but it's region-locked.

He's doing "Toy Story 3" next summer, hope you don't think that one sucks.

I thought Da Vinci Code took itself way too serious. Have not had a chance to watch this; may rent the Bluray or get through On-Demand before purchasing.

David Blackwell

I'll buy this one. Just wonder why the US is lagging behind the UK release

That pisses me off to no end! We shouldn't be required to purchase a Blu Ray player to see the extended cut of Da Vinci Code.

Bill Thomann

Glad to get the extended cut with the 2 disc dvd. I'm still hoping they'll put out a new Da Vinci dvd with its extended cut. I held off buying the original because they'd indicated the extended would be released later. Then the sob's put it out on blu ray only. I want BOTH extended cuts so how about it? A box set would be nice.

Nathan Shearer

At least Sony isn't shafting Blu Ray the theatrical cut the way Warner Brothers did for Watchmen.

Edgeman05

Might check out the blu version.

U2psycho

At least they got rid of his mullet for this one!

I didn't get to see this in theaters.. I couldn't stand the first film but the reviews were split right down the middle for this one. And Hans Zimmer's score is incredible. Going to have to check this one out on blu. Awful cover art though..

Matt Clipp

Well I'm glad that the 2-disc DVD is actually getting some special features; I was pretty alarmed when it said it would include the extended cut only. Anyways, this movie was surprisingly enjoyable and much, much better than "The Da Vinci Code". I wasn't bored at all throughout the movie, and the plotline was very intriguing and fun to watch unfold. Can't wait to rewatch it again on DVD.

Full details and highres artwork now added...

The extended edition runtime is listed as being 7 minutes longer - 146 minutes

Sam Spade

Found the climax and twists of this film very underwhelming. I prefer The Da Vinci Code to this, although I enjoyed the iilluminati stuff. Both films are nothing special. Hanks is stlll a great actor/ producer.

Horrible cover art.

Kyle Mertes

Kudos for releasing the extended cut right away, though, unlike Da Vinci. I recently NetFlixed the extended cut of Da Vinci and actually enjoyed it. This looked really good from the previews, so I will NetFlix this one as well.

And yeah, that Hans Zimmer studio thing sounds pretty cool.

Same here. That's pretty much the deciding factor for me on whether to get this or not.

stevepulaski

Tom Hanks should go back in Comedy. All these serious movies suck.

I'm not waiting for T4 - didn't like that one.

horrorfan25

I did enjoy the underrated Da Vinci Code, so I might like this more or vise-versa since everyone thinks that A&D was better than DVC? Nevertheless, I'll still Netflix this. Glad to see the BD is getting both theatrical and extended cuts. I wonder which one I should see. Probably, the theatrical cut just to be safe. I like both artworks, but I like the red-tinted cover better.

Bouncy X

wow, so dvd people have to buy the movie a second time to own both versions? thats just rude.

as for the lack of extras, the second photo does show a little list of things but its too small to read.

Battle of the Smithsonian is scheduled for a October 27th release, same day as Orphan.

Oh finally. Hope so! Let's hope I get that on that particular date instead of "Orphan" and the horribly disastrous "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs."

Just curious, where did you hear about that?

Tyler Foster

I'll be snagging both Da Vinci and Angels & Demons if there's a deal.

I liked this film alot more than Davinci Code. Pacing was way better and there were alot more action-oriented scenes.

Got my 1st Blu Ray player and HDTV last week. Looking forward to watching extended cut. It sucks that DVD owners are getting the shaft on Extras.

lee09

Very nice! A much much better improvement over Da Vinci Code. At last, a sequel that's both suspenseful as well as entertaining.

Aark

any word on how much longer the extended version is?

The extended version of Da Vinci was a lot better than the theatrical.

LeBougre

Fabricio De Zuasnabar

finally... im not liking the cover... oh well.. i'll get it

BoBoi

Much better paced, more concise and much more entertaining than The Da Vinci Code. But still, a fairly mediocre film. Although, it is nice to see Ayelet Zurer getting more roles in hollywood, I did like her a lot in Munich, despite her fairly small role in it.

wolfarcher

I really liked this movie, and the cover is pretty awesome, though I could do without the characters on the bottom.

Tom

The full details haven't been revealed yet moviewizguy. Should have more details next week

moviewizguy

I'm disappointed in the little extra features.

I was another one that missed this one in theaters. I'll defintely get this one off of Netflix. I'm still waiting for "Nigt at the Museum," "Hangover" and "Harry Potter."

MiseryMatt

I missed this in the theatre. I'll rent it, for sure.

LeBougre

Yeah, me too, that's what i'll do
