I pre-ordered it for Next Day delivery, and they say the 10th. If the 8th wasn't Columbus Day (U.S.)/Thanksgiving Day (Canada), they probably would've shipped on the 8th. Bad timing I guess. Maybe I'll crack and buy a second copy the morning of the 9th
I don't know how anyone can not take that holiday week off to devote to this Collection. Besides a couple hours to get through the extras, you got 3 full-length audio commentaries (there's another 9 hours), then to watch the films, another 9 hours...

Oh, it's gonna be terrible!
