Yeah. It had the same stickers as the one disc.

 

[Mike Frezon]

How odd this is.

It would be nice if all studios decided to do this kind of pricing with their 2-disc "SEs".

Wonder why this title went down this way?

 

[TravisR]

Nothing more than a guess but I think it's a combination of unrated versions selling much better than the rated ones and that the movie didn't do very well in theaters* so they want to make the most they can off the video release.

*Box office be damned, I thought this movie was very funny.

Thanks for the help guys, now I don't have to waste time going to Circuit City too! I wish the studios would price the 2-disc editions the same too; I used to always get them, but now when there's a $7-9 difference, I just go for the single.
