I hope to get to the DVD commentary sometime tonight. This 2-Disc version is definitely worth the price ($26.00 here), and if you're a big fan of the film, that's a plus, too.

Best Buy, Wal Mart, Target and I think a few other retailers got the "exclusive" rights to sell "Twilight" on Blu-Ray when it released back in March. Basically that meant Amazon was left in the cold (although they can still sell the DVD version) until now, May 5th. Although Amazon does get an exclusive Special Edition of the Blu-Ray set to sell, since they waited so long. Oh and I think the quote-unquote "teaser" for "New Moon" is just background music that shows an image of the title for New Moon, kinda like this vid of the very first "Dark Knight" teaser w/ all the Joker voice-overs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWw0ov-cAUg Hey Brad, I understand that you're surprised by the Blu-Ray release of "Twilight", so here's the scoop.
