And also another cut (Ultimate Edition) that features Tales of the Black Freighter, which will bring the total running time to 3 hours and 25 minutes. This version won't be out until Fall 2009, while the Director's Cut will be out around Comic Con.

I'll be looking forward to the Blu-ray ultimate edition as well as the theatrical release on March 6.

I'm both super-excited and super-worried how it'll turn out. Either way, I'll see for myself, hopefully sooner than later.

I've heard from two people I trust (Wil Wheton and Kevin Smith), who have both seen the movie, that it's fantastic.

Aw...no Tales of the Black Freighter in the regular version? I really liked that.

Oh well, I just hope to God it turns out amazing.

I had a blog. It sucked.
