I loved the film. I'll opt for the two disc while I agree the digital copy thing is worthless.

Expect the same for the release of "The Bank Job"Live Free or Die Hard and I Am Legend are NOT examples of this. Live Free or Die Hard contains, among other things, a 2 hour documentary on the same disc as the Digital Copy, and the single disc has several features, while I believe I Am Legend does not contain the digital copy on the disc itself at all.
What is up with the Mission: Impossible title lettering? These are horrid cover arts. I hope that the Blu-Ray looks better, but I am guessing that it will just be the 2-disc with the Blu-Ray case. A shame really. This was a great film.

I'll get the 2-disc for the better artwork alone. Statham is better here than he has ever been!
Full screen and widescreen on the same disk! Woo Hoo!!!
whoops sorry - should have said "what a waste of space".....
Widscreen and DTS instead please?

Effity effing mother-greedy-effers! You people! You don't need that much money! Gosh, I hate these effing studios to put no extras on the first disc and put some on the 2nd! It's like....they want money!!!! URGHH!!
the artworks for both versions are rubbish.take a look at how cool is the artwork for the UK disc.
umm i rather have the actual poster cover art for the blu-ray hope it has it.
i'll pass on this... im just sick of Statham's action flicks
That is some horrible cover art.
Terrible Art!
Love the 2 disc artwork! Cant wait for this.
I am echoing everyone else on this, but...
... UK or poster art is much better
... no need for the digital copy
... full screen with wide screen seems like a good money saver, but why bother with FS?

Will probably rent it as I've heard great things. I used to think Statham was really cool but not so much after CRANK. Now I'm kind of sick of him.
Anyway, the artworks are lame.
Blu-ray artwork added
Amusing to see people fawning all over this surprisingly by the numbers movie.
Will have to check that out. I wonder where's Horton.
