wes makes beautiful movies and the mainstream tears them apart. this release is probably an attempt to prevent the same thing that happened to Life Aquatic from happening again. that movie fizzled out way too quick in the cinema. this release seems like a sociological experiment for marketing firms. If you can't have it, you'll want it more. tease the masses to make more in the box office over time. If their cruel experiment works and it means more acclaim & respect for wes, then, maybe its ok.
actually f**k that, i wanna see this movie today, and i'm gonna have to drive the 90 minutes to denver to make it happen.
