Can't believe it's been 20 years!
This is one of my all time favorite movies, but I am leery of the need for a double dip. I bought the "Special Edition" years ago and resisted the "Buttercup" and "Dread Pirate Roberts" editions last year.
Anybody know what is "new" for this release? Is it worth it?
Thanks!

Great film, but just give us one decent release. Luckily for me I skipped all the previous editions, though. (Makes a change!)

No-ones mentioned this yet, but this is some SERIOUSLY clever artwork...

That cover art is awesome!
I shall await the BD edition though. No word on that yet?

Agreed, the artwork is VERY cool...might be enough to ask Santa for this new version...technically, only a double dip for me...

Very very cool artwork. I first saw the artwork on The Digital Bits, and after looking at it for a second, started wondering "Have they done what I think they have done", and ended printing it out just to confirm that they did. Very nice work, whoever designed the title.

Not nuts about the logo, but I like the cover art. As for dipping again, I'll have to wait for an HTF review before I decide.

Same here. I appreciate the irony that it's taken this long for the Princess Bride to wind up back in the hands of Fox.

Glad I'm not the only one who's noticed that.
