Yay I bought one, so I'm part of the 5 million! I still haven't seen it yet, because I haven't had time. Stupid tests!! I'll probably watch it on the weekend I can't wait, but at least I can say I own it.

Great movie, hope they make one now with a bunch a details, I don't care how long it is.
Books are better but if the movie had all the details the book had, just think.
Awesome sales for less than a week, but more will come
