Fox - All Access - DVD List???

sorry if this has been covered already, but I did a few searches and came up with nothing.

The recent Fox All-Access DVD's are numbered on the spine

I, Robot - 17
Man of Fire - 18
Day After Tomorrow - 19


does anyone know what the first 16 are? DAMN fox for numbering these things, because now I'm compelled to complete the series!

ok....I did find a thread on the topic but it is very incomplete.

also, are some (or all) of the movies in this series NOT NUMBERED?

that really would stink.

Yes, some (like FIGHT CLUB) fail to have an actual digit on the spine...

Actually, I believe the newer Fight Clubs (the ones in stores now, not the original 2disc) have spine numbers on them.

If true, then the gist of my post is still valid--some of the titles do NOT have digits on the spine...

I still think it's funny that The Commitments and Predator are both number 15.

Depending on how you look at it. The original 2-disc releases of Fight Club were put out before Fox started doing the numbering on the spine. Then they discontinued the 2-disc in favor of a single disc release. Then after Fox decided to try and pull a "criterion" by placing numbers on the spine, they re-released the 2-disc of Fight Club with the number. So yes, the original releases don't have a number, but they were never supposed to have one.

No, because the version of 'Fight Club' (or 'The Abyss') without the numbers is not actually an "All-Access" version; the "All-Access" version is a re-release of those versions, which had been out of print for some time.

How come they didn't give Predator 2 a spine #?

You guys are not following...some of the newest printings of these titles STILL do not feature spine numbers...maybe not FIGHT CLUB, but some of them still do NOT have numbers.

Dabaomb, PREDATOR 2 is only a so-called Special Edition, whereas the original PREDATOR is a Collector's Edition, so only the latter counts as part of the list of top-tier Fox titles.

Those spine numbers annoy me... I was pissed when they re-released Abyss, new cover art w/ a spine...... and it was just a recycled re-release... non-anamorphic and all.

I don't believe i've seen any copies of Something About Mary with a spine number. I may be mistaken, but same with Moulin Rouge.

Other then that, Fight Club should be the only release with similar packaging except for the spine number printing.
