The other instances of free tickets all came with new releases or re-releases in new packaging (like The Fog). Both of the DVD's in this set were shrinkwrapped individually, so it would have made sense for them to just stick the ticket between the two pre-packaged DVD's. That's where the bonus DVD was. Why didn't they put the ticket and bonus disc in the same place? And what was the point of them shrinkwrapping the individual DVD's? Seems like a waste of time to me.

When The Ring was rereleased with Rings, it was packaged in the same side by side manner, and the ticket was it The Ring, not the new release.

This was a great buy. Glad I procrastinated on these. I thought both films were excellent in their own ways. Add the bonus disc and a ticket and you make out like a bandit!

For the places that have this for $14.99, is that the regular price or a sale price?

I bought it at Best Buy and the sticker reads $15.99. This will probably be the price after the initial sale this week.

Since my Best Buy was out of the back-to-back slip cover packaging, I got the side-by-side packaging for $14.99 at Walmart. From what I've read, the contents are the same besides the packaging and the free movie ticket is sealed inside the FD1 DVD for either packaging type?

Could someone tell me what kind of movie cash is included... is it www.hollywoodmoviecash.com? Before I open up the DVDs, I'd like to make sure the movie ticket is good at a nearby theater like AMC or Harkins.

Actually, it's Hollywood Movie CASH.com and the ticket is good 'til March 10, 2006.

Picked this up on sale for $14.99 at Tower Records B&M. It's the back-to-back one.

The FD3 preview is a production featurette with director, effects supervisors and actors discussing aspects of the film, with an emphasis on the rollercoaster accident at the beginning of the film. It's not too bad....

No, I think he just opened the case.

I think my wife picked this up for me at Target yesterday for Valentine's Day.

Thank you. Wasn't sure about this at first, but then I noted on Amazon and other retailers that the featurette ran 20 minutes and sounded like more than typical EPK fluff. Besides, my original FD case--snapper kind with what I call "psychedelic" cover art--came with a broken locking hub. Been wanting to replace it ever since.

I just checked CH online, and for my account this set costs $14.96 with 99c shipping (even if I add 2 other DVDs). You must have a special promotion on your account OR the $11.99 price didn't last very long. I would tend to guess the former because CH often gives different customers different prices. I don't like places that do that, but what can you do.

I guess I'll be sticking with the Walmart one I got for $14.99 + tax last week.

Wow. you're right! I always assumed CH was Columbia House and could be accessed through either URL. I used www.columbiahouse.com because that's what's in my stored links.

So, now I've got to go to the clubs section and try to find in the FAQ what the difference is between the clubs... unless you can give me a quick few line summary? I understand why CH has CD, DVD, and game clubs separate, but why they would have multiple DVD clubs is a mystery. There must be some logical financial reason for this that my tiny brain doesn't yet grasp.
