I hate the new cover. I liked the original poster with everyone on top of the Ford.
What kind of Ford truck is that anyway?

I was a little disappointed with the features on the blu-ray.
shareYes, the blu-ray is missing several of the special features contained on the DVD. But even worse - they edited 2 minutes of scenes with mostly nudity, without even bothering to tell anyone! After watching the blu-ray I remembered there were several scenes that footage edited out, and one scene where they drive to town and Scott Caan's character & a couple of girls get out of the car naked. I checked the back of the cover; while Paramount claims the movie is rated "R", the runtime is listed as only 104 minutes. Imdb lists the R rated theatircal version as 106 minutes. If Paramount edited out 2 minutes of the movie, it's no longer the version the film board rated as R!
shareI'm watching it right now, the naked sophomores in the cop car scene is still there, same as it ever was. Can still see the girl in the passenger's seat allegedly underage nips.
