Snagged a copy last night.

I've had nothing but good experiences with Newbury Comics through Amazon in the past as well.

Damn good price, nice snag.

I was wondering does the Blu-ray have all of the features as the 3 Disc does?

Boba Fett · 10-27-09, 06:16 AM

Yes, if I recall from a few reviews, the Blu-Ray did carry over all 3-Disc DVD features. If I remember right, the HD-DVD was missing at least the Tarantino commentary.

Thanks OP!

loyalcitizen · 10-28-09, 03:28 AM

Yes, very nice price. I ordered it from Newbury on your advice. Thanks!

ruddiger_718 · 10-28-09, 10:12 AM

Thanks, I was prepared to order it for 25 anywhere else.

Quick question for those who already have this. I have the single disc edition with the Walmart bonus disc. This seems to have all the same material except the fuzzball rally on disc 3. Would that documentary make it worth the double dip?

The 3-Disc Edition also has 4 more commentaries that aren't on the R1 single DVD (but are on the Blu-Ray):

# The Police: Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Jim Broadbent, Rafe Spall, Kevin Eldon and Olivia Colman
# The Village People: Kenneth Cranham, Timothy Dalton, Paul Freeman and Edward Woodward
# The Real Fuzz: Andy Leafe and Nick Eckland
# Edgar Wright and Quentin Tarantino

Ordered

I'd been on the fence with this one for awhile, but for that price, it's a no-brainer. Thanks for the heads up!

The Tarantino commentary makes it interesting...anyone have thoughts on the documentary. That'll seal the deal for me...thanks!

Looking at dvdcompare, the three disc appears to have a 5.1 EX track as opposed to a plain 5.1 track, a short (40min) film by Edgar Wright w/commentary, and the Fuzzball Rally doc has a commentary (not sure if the WalMart disc had one).

The making of featurettes are also supposed to form a mini documentary.

victant · 10-30-09, 02:18 AM

Just what I've been waiting for! And I'm not even late to the party, either!! Thanks for the heads up, OP.

Boba Fett · 10-31-09, 02:28 PM

My copy came today and thanks to the USPS the case was DESTROYED. Crushed, slightly torn and one disc tray shattered. Fortunately the discs were mint (no scratches). I let Newbury know since I've never had a bad shipment from them (normally I get cardboard mailers or boxes, this was a bubble mailer), but have had the post office look like they intentionally smash bubble mailers before.

I'd probably try and return it, if it wasn't $10 shipped. I'll just print out some custom cover art for the thinpak cases I have lying around.

Got my copy today and it shipped fine. Thanks for the heads-up Boba Fett!

victant · 11-04-09, 12:34 AM

Another happy camper here! Thanks, again, BF!

heathtown · 11-04-09, 12:41 AM

Got my set yesterday, it came overall pretty fine. No real major scuffs. (Well, I did find a minor one on disc 1, but it played the movie and extras fine).

It was mainly a blind buy. The film wasn't bad, but I think it's just a bit overrated. Still though, fantastic deal and thanks again for posting Boba Fett. =D

Moviebuff_2007 · 11-04-09, 02:14 PM

Currently it's $6.99.

$6.98 now. This looks likely to be headed for Big Lots before it's over.
