Really? I love how they pitch this. A 3D movie ticket (outside downtown LA)? $15 max. Digital copy? $10 max. Popcorn? Say $6. Does that mean the glasses and poster are somehow worth $45? Ha. What a scam.

This deal is ridiculous, and the "experience" which will be dragged out until the film hits DVD/Blu-ray doesn't justify the price. The more sh!t like this I see, plus the continued absence of zombies from the trailers, makes me think this movie is going to suck a$$. I also think Spielberg is wrong here — the future of cinema is not in "super theaters" — not unless you insert the word "home" in there.

That is one of the most ridiculous marketing devices I can think of!
Paying a premium for the "honor" of watching a film two days in advance, who does that?
It's the cynical marketing ploy where products are arbitrarily christened "exclusive", and priced highly. The whole ideology of "exclusive" products is ridiculous, where for some reason the fact that others don't have access to the product that we do is a bonus.
