We're not playing favorites... but let's face it; this is the one you want.
  • On a funny sidenote to the Wal-Mart edition, a home office error caused the Blu-Ray version to be priced at $13 at release. Unfortunately, due to a decree by the Georgia governor during the flooding that occurred in the Fall, no retailers were allowed to initiate price increases until the end of October. Not even to fix a pricing error.
