more than likely they never adjusted their price for the price reduction that was seen last year. A lot of people this side of the ocean do this. If there is a label/distributor wide reduction in prices, many placed won't adjust for that (that I've seen).

I've had a copy for a long time. Ordered it from KoreanDVDs.com and the service and shipping was great. It is on sale right now for $8.99 at said website. My brother ended up loving the movie as much as I dig it so I gave my first copy to him, just ordered another for myself from them.

So I take it that this is a definite upgrade over the R1 version?

Well the picture quality is very nice and I'll take the DTS track hands down. Is it a PROVEN upgrade video wise, I don't know for sure. I haven't seen a direct comparison. The packaging is obviously much better if you like Digipak's, if that doesn't matter to you then I would look for a video comparison. I personally wanted the cooler packaging and the nice DTS track, plain and simple.

You had me at DTS track. Still, I do hope the transfer is better.

Like said I can't comment if it's BETTER. I actually bought this blind a long time back and ended up getting the R3 version right out of the starting gate and have never seen the R1 I believe miramax dvd. The picture quality looks great on my 50" LCD. There are a couple spots of grain but I don't know if that's intentional or what and it's nothing that will take you out of the action. The R3 has both the DD5.1 & DTS5.1 and the DTS track is definitely a nice improvement with deeper bass and nice movement in the surrounds.
For the price, R3 all the way for me.

Cool. SO is this a one disc or two disc set. What are the special features, if any, like?
