No.I bought the last bluray version and i'm happy with it. No need for this. If I didn't have this movie I probably would buy this, but that isn't the case.

Not sure if that cover art is cool or a busy, cluttered mess.

I'm going to go with cluttered mess for the cover. I'm fine with the box set.

why is the Alien holding a cell phone in its hand?
Or is that after shave cologne?
That collage just looks weird to me.

I'll buy this when I finish the extras on the Anthology boxset.
I'm thinking 2034 or so.

Unless the point is to sell even more copies of the same movie. I still have the original DVD with the mail-in bonus disc. I don't think there are any supplements left about this movie that I need.
Wouldn't be surprised to see a newly filmed cast retrospective, since the guys got together for the new Alien Isolation video game.

The only reason I'll buy this is if the color timing is changed to the proper, original theatrical one. But I'm laying 1 on 100 odds that this will ever happen. We'll probably just get a repackaging of the existing encode with a couple of bones (= superfluous extras) thrown in to get us salivating on the 40th anniv release. Rinse. Repeat. Walk to bank and cash in.

Couldn't they wait 5 years for the 40th anniversary?

Well, Fox did release a corrected version for The French Connection. I'm still not holding out hope they'll do the same here.

I'm surprised i have not seen one "if the color timing matches the 1979 prints i'll buy it!" comments given how several really hate the color timing on the main lu ray
