That’s the manufacturer’s recommended price. you’ll probably find it for $20.

I just find it utterly amazing that its being released on my birthday…

It’s nice to know the release date for the DVD. As Crazymonk said, you’ll probably find it at about $20 instead.

Damn! I was hoping to get it for CHristmas, but looks like that’s not gonna happen…

To irrelivent and anyone else who wants this DVD for Christmas: just ask for a ~$20 gift certificate to Fry’s or Amazon or Best Buy or something and get it the week after Christmas.

Guh.

Additionally, if you squint at one of the images, you’ll see the ‘order date’ is November 28th. I guess I don’t really know what that means, but I suspect that’s when sites like Amazon will begin taking orders and, while the DVD won’t arrive until after the new year, you’ll at least know that it’s on its way.

please tell me they will be having a commentary track by someone GOOD, like maybe a certain male flight attendant. that would be AWESOME and better than the normal boring producer ones. ken was hilarious in the movie. give the guy his due, or at least give us somethign unexpected like that.

yeah man, thats only the suggested price….cant wait!

KEN COMMENTARY!!! Come on New Line, do SOMETHING cool outside the box.

I’m sad it won’t be out by Christmas. I was hoping.

im a bit dissapointed that theyll have a “internet fan featurette.” i feel the fans deserve nothing less than a whole second disc of fan content.

In totally unrelated news, but it seemed to go better here than the ones above:

Turns out Maria’s brave move to save the little boy wasn’t so bright after all. Check out the last part of this article:

“But Beier said the method of cutting a wound and sucking out the venom is never recommended.

“Do not do this,” he said. “That’s been shown not to have been of any benefit and it can increase the effect of infection or damage.”

That’s what I’m talkin’ about. ;-)

And in other airplane news, how about pervs on a plane??
