The Passion of the Buck

As expected, the DVD release of Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ is selling like hotcakes, moving 4 million copies on its first day. Record sales are anticipated of this bare bones DVD - no director commentary, no deleted scenes, no alternate ending (ha!), etc. The cynic in my thinks that this might be a clever ploy to pump more money out of the faithful down the road. What are the odds that a "collector's edition" will appear in a few months, maybe in time for Easter?
