Yes, I noticed that problem with Amazon. They did the same thing to me.

It's all conspiracy to trick people into buying multiple copies who will then shrug off the annoyance factor of sending the extras back, I tell you! I've cracked open their nefarious plot!

Oh, well that sucks. It's always appeared for me, so I haven't yet had a reason to unloose my rage!

Well, I am not expecting a realistic adaption of SH, I just suspect that it looks a little hokey and punchy and block-buster-y in a way that can sometimes get on my nerves.

I'm glad you liked it.
