No way does this feature last longer than 28 seconds.

Is the Blu-ray still going to include the Days of Future Past post credits sequence? Then it will make even less sense...

*shaking head at including Rhino in the cover artwork* On some level, that's a spoiler.

Edit: then again, so is Green Goblin but that's at least forgivable.

I would guess that it won't. That wasn't part of the movie, it was just tacked on...it would be like asking if it was going to have the same trailers before the film.

I shouldn't buy this because I didn't enjoy the movie very much, but I'll probably pick it up.

I do like that slipcover...which means most of you probably hate it.

They made it sound like it was some sort of crossover which tied the two universes together. It was the same clip I'd seen online sometime before. It was pointless.

I'm glad you made a new topic instead of posting in the one already there.

That cluttered cover art pretty much sums up everything wrong with the movie.

I'm glad you're glad. If you need me to make another thread, perhaps for just the 3D version, let me know. My goal in life is to purposely create duplicate threads at DVD Talk.

I find it odd that everyone complains about movies like Spider-Man 3 and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 for being too busy and having too many villains, and yet they're all eagerly looking forward to a Sinister Six movie.

These movies don't suck because they have too many characters. The Thing has twelve main characters to keep track of, and nobody ever complains about that. These two Spider-Man movies suck because they're simply poorly-executed, whether because of studio interference or just having godawful writers to start with.

If Sony and Fox were smart they would do exactly that. Better yet, they could just try and come to some sort of an agreement to work with Marvel Studios/Disney so that everything could be tied together.

I'll probably buy this release though. I liked the film despite it being far from perfect. The cover art is pretty damn busy though.

Best Buy will have collectible packaging and comic book. The package looks like flimsy fold out card board.

Yikes. Yeah, it does look like it has rubber stubs to hold the discs.

It does not.

Review is forthcoming but whatever you think of the movie, it looks and sounds great. Lots of worthwhile features, too. It's nice too have BTS footage instead of clips and talking heads.

I am not buying this when it comes out, did not enjoy it enough to pay for the BR.
-Was really ticked that the final fight scene never started at the end, the trailers made it look like it going to be a big battle.

May pick it up on Black Friday if the price is right.
