Casino Royale [2-disc Collector's Edition (w/Movie Ticket)]

so is this the first ever blu-ray double dip?

no, sony has already double dipped "the fifth element".

I don't think that's an actual double-dip...they were fixing their mistakes...

they should've gotten it right in the first place.

This kinda crap pissed me off when DVD was the only format, but now that Blu is out it doesn't surprise me.
I just cant justify spending another $30 on this movie. $8 to see it in the theaters, $30 to buy it on Blu-Ray and $30 more to but the Collectors Edition. Really, $68 for this movie.
I guess I just wont buy movies when they come out the first time, there will always be a "better edition" down the road.

I own the original BD of this film ($12 from eBay's HALF.com last year). But the reason I won't be buying this new collector's edition is it will feature the same version (PG-13) that's on the first BD.

However, the Australian, German, and Scandinavian (all region-free) contain a slightly longer (and more violent "R-Rated") version. It's "uncut", featuring other violent shots/angles that are changed for the US theatrical release. There are numerous differences as noted on the DVDCOMPARE.NET website (comparison of all the editions) &gt http://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=10779 &lt scroll down to the bottom of the page for the info.
