I know that this thread's a few months old but since it's out on DVD/BR now...

I finally watched it today (on BR). I'd heard a few bad things about it, mainly due to deviations from the book, but I found it great. As far as deviating from the book goes, well, I read it back when it first came out and therefore didn't remember a lot of the finer details. I enjoying the movie and can't wait for the next one now :)

I'd give the Blu-ray copy a 4 out of 5; there were some noticeable artefacts but it was still enjoyable. It comes with a digital copy but this is only available on Windows, in WMV :(

I forgot that Australia/New Zealand got their copies of the movie first. Warner Brothers made the rather strange decision to release the home video version on December 7, 2009 in the UK/Europe and December 8, 2009 in the USA, which I think is probably not a good idea because it's literally right in the middle of the Christmas shopping season and trying to stock up items can be a problem at times.

That's interesting, I mentioned in another post that I got Star Trek a few weeks ago, and found that we got that one early too. I wonder how many movies we're getting early, and why.
