YES! First one! Which is great because not only is this the best picture of the year, Scorsese's greatest film yet, but it's also the best film I've in years. I know everyone always says that, but if you knew me, you knew how good a movie needs to be to truly please me. I really do like both covers, but the 2 Disc is one for be. I think it's more than obvious that there will eventually be a double dip. (The zero commentary gives it away) Don't know about the actually release, although the two documentaries could be two long hour docs or something. Looking forward to the deleted scenes. I saw this twice in theatres, needless to say, finally, a movie worth seeing over and over again. You owe to yourself to see this.

I'm angry that they're doing 2 versions, but of course, I'll buy the 2-disc.

Wow, my favorite movie of the year and I am really bummed about the extras.  No Commentary?  No behind the scenes?  Interviews?  Deleted scenes are such worthless extras?  Featurette on the Boston mafia?  Blah!  Come on WB can do better!

gotta love that tangoesque score by Shore. pre-ordering this the second it becomes available

I like the two disc ver. cover. For some reason it reminds me of The Sopranos cover arts.

Nice cover.

I read elsewhere that there will be a same-day release on HD-DVD.

I absolutely loved this movie. Both covers are great, which seems to be rare recently. I actually prefer the one-disc art, and since the extras seem slim on the SE I may have to buy the one-disc (if it's the usual $5-10 cheaper) and just Netflix the special features.

You!? The person who started a thread entitled "The Departed...WHY O WHY !!!!" was 'sceptic' about it!!??? That's the most shocking thing I've seen in relation to this movie!


Unbelievable film too.... THIS is the flick that finally changed Marky Mark into Mark Whalberg to me. I loved the original poster, but both covers aren't half-bad (I actually prefer the 1-disc, but the difference is negligible).

The best film of 2006. Scorsese better get the directing Oscar for this one. Definitley one for the collection.

Again, HD version, WB?  Already announced in Australia...

This movie is my favorite film of 2006. For a remake, the plot was taut, the acting was superb and the direction was excellent. It's not a film that will get much repeat play as does my other films, but it's definitely a film that stays with you and despite some very minor flaws -- I found a lot to love about this film. For me, this turned me into a fan of Scorsese's work and I will check out the rest of his filmography.

But I do say that the lack of extras for this film is very disconcerting. Only four extras for the SE? I can almost guarantee that if this film nabs a lot of Oscars next February, the WB will release a more fully stuffed edition -- commentary and all. (When the WB released "The Aviator" last year, that movie was packed to the gills with extras and this film doesn't come close to having that amount of extras.)

For me, I'll stick with the single-disc edition. The art for the single-disc is reminscent of the one-sheet and the fact that the extras on the SE are positively scant.

To the very first poster: you should learn to know the studios. No, there will likely NOT be any double-dip, since Warner Brothers, while they are constantly finding classic older titles and giving them 2-disc upgrades, don't re-issue CURRENT titles pretty much ever. This is double-supported by the fact that we're already getting the one-disc AND two-disc on a single day, and that Warner, in the past year, has slowly lost its support for the commentary track (Aronofsky was likewise denied one on The Fountain and I am unhappily expecting to hear that there will not be a Gondry track on The Science of Sleep).

It's a letdown, and it probably won't be fixed.

However, the date is far enough away (and there's enough space on that back cover) to throw on some more bonuses if Scorsese walks away with a Best Director Oscar nomination -- not sure when the ceremony itself is. Either way I want to see the film and as weak as it looks, I'll pick up the two-disc over the single disc any day of the week.

Also, for the 2 disc, and this is a first, that's the exact cover art I wanted for this disc.

I might be the only man on earth that truly didn't care for the film. For me, all the suspenseful plot twists were directly from the original IA and I was really enjoying the film the most during the first hour when it was doing something different than IA. I don't think I understand the ending: so everyone's a rat. Um....wha? Why? It just seems so tacky to have a rat scurry across the balcony. Everything got so over the top and so hard not to laugh at. Honestly, was it really necessary to eat a fly to show that Jack was unhinged? And that last scene!

God I could spoiler it up but I won't but in general, I really didn't like the film. Of Marty's more recent fiction films, I prefer the Aviator by far.
