I can't believe this is the first thread on this.
Anyone know what kind of bonus features and commentary will be on it?

It just arrived in the mail, and I am the first one here to get the official DVD!
Well, time for me to fire up the DVD player and play my 2 disc set.

SouthPark was right. George Lucas and Steven Spielberg raped Indiana Jones.
I'm holding off renting it until I get a Blu-ray player for our main TV (just waiting on the Sony S550 to become available at Best Buy, which should be before the end of the month.) As far as buying, didn't like it enough to buy on its own, I'll wait until there's a Blu-ray series boxed set.
Watched the movie once, unfortunately have very little desire to do so again.
Well, I loved Indy IV despite some minor flaws, and am about to go out and purchase on my way to work.
I enjoyed this movie, although it's in fourth place among the movies by far. It sort of had that Die Another Day moment where it became something else in the second half, and even though that's where it was leading, that doesn't mean it was a good thing. That second half seemed too "Lucas-ized," if that's a term.
Same here. Which is a shame, because I'm sure the bonus features on the 2-disc would have been really good.
And the DVD world as a whole replies with a collective "sigh" and goes and Googles "South Park, Spielberg, Lucas."
I enjoyed the film for what it was. People crying that George Lucas raped their childhood on this one need to scale back their expectations a bit--no way was this one as bad as any of the Star Wars prequels.
I'll probably wait until X-Mas to pick up the DVD, though. Pretty busy with classes, and money's tight. Curious about the features, though.

Yeah, I wouldn't say it's that bad. Despite my mentioning of the SP bit I don't think Lucas/Spielberg "raped" anything in this movie. I mean, there was nothin inherently terrible or wrong about it. It just lacked a certain spark and had some silliness to it that didn't fit in even an already pretty fantastical franchise and too much damn CGI.
The stupid oohing/awwwing cartoony gophers, though, borderline on ass-rape.
True, but no matter how it is polished, a turd is still a turd. It would have been better had they not made this movie.
Not to interrupt all the bashing, but I picked up the DVD today. Target has an exclusive that includes a book of set photographs taken by David James. The book is nicely done in hardcover with the DVD holder on the inner front cover. The whole thing slips into an outer case. Very neat.
Apparently those gophers were not all CGI.

Nope, it was the same price as elsewhere: $22.99. The book is around 80 pages and has nice full-color photographs as shown here.
I thought it was a decent movie but it felt like someone was tried and failed to make an Indiana Jones movie, not like an Indy movie from Speilberg and Lucas. I'm going to wait for a sale before picking it up.
