Cool... It's about time.
The two-film thing is starting to look like a standard PJ approach to selling movies: Find a way to sell the same movie to the same people three or four times.
Theater, DVD (theatrical), DVD (extended), Box sets, Special editions... heh. Brilliant, actually.
I see there's a new "extended" DVD out for King Kong. Of course. :-)

Thanks for the ping. I was just wondering about progress on this a few days ago.
