A must buy for me :D
Damn that "blu-ray + digital copy" banner ruins the cover IMHO.
Gotta really stop with that digital copy s**te

I think they said the Director's Cut is what was closer to Guillermo's original script so I think it's interesting they are releasing it. On Blu-Ray only no less. *rolls eyes
Be forewarned: it's Del Toro's least Del Toro-ey work.
I never saw the original cut and wasn't aware it was Guillermo del Toro flick. Where have I been? I will definitely have to check this out soon.
This may be little more than a standard monster flick, but hey, I'll be damned if it isn't a stylish one. I MIGHT buy this, but will definitely rent it.
I really liked the original, so I'm buying this BD
I actually like this movie. Even if the monsters are just giant roaches, they made them look cool. The cover's cool too. Director's cut, hell yeah!
Sold!
As soon as Amazon gets their pre-order up...

Interesting. I'd like to see the director's cut of this, but given the stories I've heard I doubt it's still anything close to what del Toro wanted.
