I think I got pretty lucky here. I pre-ordered the blu-ray set from BestBuy.com for $34.99. When the weekly ad came out this wee, they had it for $41.99. So, I checked the website and it is indeed $41.99. That's the best price I've found anywhere. With tax and everything, I got it for $36.50. I wonder if BB made a mistake or something? Either way, I get to pick it up tomorrow!

No, Best Buy jacked up the price on several new titles. G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra was $20.99 yesterday and it's magically $24.99 today. Oh, well. It's $19.99 on Amazon so they got my money. Luckily I got my $34.99 Clone Wars preorder in as you did so I'll be able to dive into it tomorrow.

I have to wait until Nov 18 to get this ehre in Australia. I so cannot wait to see the episodes in 2.35:1. Watching "Downfall of a Droid" last night, I didn't see the scenes where R2 fries a treadwell droid and the bit at the end where Anakin comes into the cockpit before Ahsoka says "Hit it Rex". Will these scenes be on the set?

Awesome! I also pre-ordered mine(regular DVD set) on Amazon.com for 34 dollars(including shipping) although I probably won't get it until the end of the week.

Thanks for the Amazon.com tip off! I'd rather wait a few days to get it than pay an additional $7 at Best Buy, not to mention I'd have to drive over there (and gas is getting pricey)

The force will be with me by the weekend. grin

So there are commentaries on this? And please tell me none of the episodes were spliced together to make a film.

No commentaries, however there are featurettes for each episode.

No spliced together episodes a la the Genndy Tartakovsky Clone Wars (although I enjoyed that aspect of the DVD release), however there are a few extended episodes.

In an effort to accommodate fans first experiencing the series on DVD and Blu-Ray, I've begun a new DVD/BR discussion thread that includes a FAQ, among other resources.

Please feel free to continue the cinversation over there- but note that the new thread will be be Season 2 spoiler-free (beyond S2 previews material in the DVD extras). If you need to continue discussing specific episodes in light of new info revealed on the DVD in a spoiler context for Season 2, please use either the general series discussion thread or the individual episode threads. happy
