So is this any good then?
Or shall I just save my money, or get the TV series on SD DVD
Edit: Worst cover ever!

Yes, I think everyone here agrees that the studio heads or the production artists who handle the cover-art must be getting their ques from Ye Olde Star Wars Master. It seems that the cover art given to the film at the time of its release is not good enough so there must be tinkering done instead of just using the original. This is one is unacceptable, but I think Bram Stoker's Dracula is still the worst.

This reminds me of the TV series in many ways actually. I think its worth getting but becareful as there was talk of a extended cut. The extended cut will have about 45 mins extra apparently. I suspect a later release for that like happened with Troy.
The poster art for this film is quite stunning yet they use this rubbish instead, its stupid.

I was wondering do we know if an extended cut is likely or as rumored will there be over an hours worth of cut footage on this blu-ray release?
