Will it have a DVD copy included? I'd love to get a copy of the Blu-Ray while I'm away from home and be able to watch it on DVD...

For some strange reason when glancing at the title heading I read "Flubber"

If you haven't seen this, It's been up on Playstation Network since Feb.25. $9.99 May be a Little more than the cost of a ticket, but it's convenient and you get to see it earlier than Most.

"centers around a tire that comes to life and possesses terrifying telepathic powers."

I think they mean "telekinetic"...

It kinda look like "Carrie", but with a tire.

the tagline should be "IF YOU'RE TIRED OF THE SAME OLD HORROR"

This is probably the dumbest idea for a horror movie, oddly enough though it is somewhat interesting!

A lot of times the dumbest ideas for horror movies end up being great :P.

My first knee-jerk reaction when seeing this, was "Rubber"?...after reading the "Burlesque" corset promo debacle here! Will Best Buy pull this title too w/ it's exclusive prophylactic exclusive? LOL

I thought the trailer was awesome and I watched it over the weekend. Without any spoilers, I have to say I don't recommend a blind buy.

Great soundtrack but that's to be expected considering the Director Quentin Dupieux is Mr Oizo the famous French DJ/Producer...I can't wait to see this
