Caveat emptor, of course. The "good" news is that, as with GONY, there should be plenty of pre-release reviews, so if news isn't good one could cancel their preorder. Given that -- and at about 45% off MSRP -- this is too good a deal to pass up, IMO. And with any luck, as with GONY and many other Disney catalog BR reissues, there will be a $10/film rebate offer, bringing it all down to only $20. Fingers crossed on that, too.
