Anyone else got this yet?

It's refreshing to know a classic like this finally got a good dvd treatment  (i.e. commentary & extras that are actually enjoyable)

"The name's Plissken"

____________________________________________________________
While on a journey, Chuang Tzu found an old skull, dry and parched.
With sorrow, he questioned and lamented the end of all things.
When he finished speaking, he dragged the skull over and, using it for a pillow, lay down to sleep.
In the night, the skull came to his dreams and said, 'You are a fool to rejoice in the entanglements of life.'
Chuang Tzu couldn`t believe this and asked, 'If I could return you to your life, you would want that, wouldn`t you?'
Stunned by Chuang Tzu`s foolishness, the skull replied, 'How do you know that it is bad to be dead?'

-From The Matrix: The Path of Neo

Stupid me, I wasn't even aware this was available. How long has it been out? I have the movie on DVD that I bought about 2 years ago but that is seriously lacking in features and quality.

"Snake Plissken...I heard you were dead..."

not sure how long it's been out - I only found it by glancing at the stack and noticing the 2 disc set....it only goes for about $20 now; not a bad price for a whole first reel that was cut from the film on the 2nd disc!
