I mean, it’s a _movie_, not a game, and it’s a 100-minute movie at that! Check out [Best Buy](http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=7190443&type=product&id=1113534516323).

I really wanted it but forget it now, it’s not worth it. I could buy a new game for that. Or two other movies.

Anyone know any place it’s selling cheaper?

The problem is that it’s the UMD version.

Amazon has the DVD at [18.87](http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000AMJG4Y/002-5731403-7376816?v=glance&n=130&n=507846&s=dvd&v=glance), but the release date is listed as 1.10.06. Are there seperate DVD and UMD release dates or something?

Never mind, the American release is not out yet! As \*\*Kiros \*\* says, it will be $20 when it comes out, but who knows when? They say January. :dubious:
