Amazon pre-order: here. Special Features TBD.

Slick packaging design, and the Amazing Amy book is a nice touch.

Solid Snake

I await this flick to get a BD that has many good features w/ a solid commentary by Fincher.

Fincher films are a great product that gives some love to the consumer.

I liked this movie, but I can't see myself revisiting it that much. Might bite when $10 or less.

gerrythedon

Will wait for a loaded 2-disc blu-ray.

Solid Snake

Dragon Tattoo went down fast. i might wait for this one now.

Bluelitespecial

I love the packaging design. I still have held on to the 2 disc Fight club dvd for that reason alone, is it worth a blind buy?

Decker

Fincher's initial releases tend to be the most loaded versions.

Guru Askew

I agree. Except for Alien3. And Se7en. And The Game. And Panic Room. And Zodiac.

Solid Snake

Panic Room didn't release as a regular DVD and SE DVD? I thought Seven always came front loaded w/ the regular DVD coming out at the same time...

Decker

Zodiac was loaded at with initial release. I know -- I have that original loaded Zodiac HD-DVD . All those other films are last century.

Matthew Chmiel

Fight Club, Benjamin Button, The Social Network, and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo were all loaded releases out the door on DVD or BD.

Zodiac was not. Panic Room was not. The Game was not. Se7en was not. Alien 3 was not.

I enjoyed Gone Girl, but honestly it's not the kind of movie that has a lot of replay value. Maybe 1 or 2 more viewings (1 watching with commentary). I will consider getting this if it's loaded with extra content. I like Fincher's commentaries and most of his movies have pretty extensive behind the scenes material.

I know most of this forum is so overloaded with backlog that they simply don't have the time to watch bonus material, but if you're a fan of Fincher's work as a filmmaker, you really should make the effort to watch it and listen to his commentary tracks.

Just to buy this set and throw it into your closet or shelf unwatched for months/years would be shameful.

Guru Askew

That wasn't the initial release. Zodiac was famously initially issued on DVD in its theatrical version and sporting an advertisement for the director's cut edition on the theatrical disc.

Fight Club also came out as a bare-bones VHS several weeks before the loaded DVD edition.

E Unit

Dragon Tattoo was a Sony, Gone Girl is Fox. So it may take a while longer for it to drop.

mattysemo247

Panic Room needs to come out on blu ray soon

Sweet Baby James

I'll grab it for $13 during a foxconnect flash sale.

TheDuke

If the special features are still TBD it could very well be reasonably loaded.

TomOpus

It's hard to tell. I would lean towards "no" because, while very good, it didn't blow me away like some of his other movies. I would rank it in the middle of his filmography.

hdnmickey

Posting about a VHS releases in a discussion like this one is an example of going to ridiculous levels to try and find somebody wrong.

Same goes for some short term DVD release.

Guru Askew

Fight Club came out in 1999. If you're gonna talk about DVD releases in a Blu-ray thread in 2014 (and you should) its perfectly valid to talk about the staggered VHS/DVD release in 2000 as well.

And the Fight Club VHS had an ad for the DVD on it too.

This is precisely what people are expecting with this title: that a more-loaded release will follow shortly afterwards. I don't think it'll happen, relatively-few titles have been double-dipped in the Blu-ray era, but they're quite common in Fincher's filmography.

In fact, the only titles that could be said to have reasonably-definitive releases on Day 1 in Fincher's filmography would be Benjamin Button, The Social Network and Dragon Tattoo.

Artman

His last three movies... now, this one was a big enough hit that it's not outside the realm of possibility that a feature packed release could come down the road...but I wouldn't count on it. It has a commentary track...I wouldn't be surprised if Fincher thinks that's enough, and doesn't think any behind-the-scenes material is needed.

Defiant1

Not sure about the States, but in Canada, Fox releases always drop in price fairly quickly. Best Buy has entire bargain sections devoted almost entirely to Fox releases.

hdnmickey

It's the same here. I rarely buy any new Fox discs during release week given how quickly they drop.

RichC2

This one seems to have a much larger fanbase than Dragon Tattoo and has a bit more of a "word of mouth" appeal that comes with being a pristine adaptation to a hugely popular trashy novel, curious to see how the pricing goes. (Dragon Tattoo was a popular novel in the US but nowhere near Gone Girl's level of popularity).

fumanstan

I never really heard of Gone Girl as a book, I thought Dragon Tattoo was a more popular novel but maybe that's just me.
