Cool, this is something I very much want.

Zodiac was one of my favourite films of last year, can't wait to see the DC. Please post up your thoughts on it DrDoom once you've watched it :)

Here there's only some 4 minutes added and that they don't change the film all that much, but the extra features and documentaries on the disc sound interesting. Don't know if it'd be worth me buying Zodiac again mind (not to say I haven't considered it).
