I hate snappers but all the best dvds have snapper cases like Matrix,Training Day,Natural Born Killers,Blade. Why is this so?

calhoun07

You prefer Warner Bros movies, clearly.

Rypro 525

get the uncut unrated version of natural born killers anyway. It's got over at least 120 shots that were cut from the r rated version (and its in a keepcase)

D-Ball

You can also get Blade in a keepcase.

RyoHazuki

They aren't. It just sucks that lots of good movies are in snappers.

JuJue

Not true...A LOT and I mean a LOT are in keepcase also.

jesus...here we go again.

I haven't tried it but I was thinking of separating the cardboard cover from the plastic DVD holder (flip up the bottom and top flaps on the reserse side of the DVD case), carefully pry and unfold the cover apart (since it's one piece that's folded and glued), trim it and instert it in a keepsake case. The inside of the cover (once separated) can be used as an insert.

I also have a lot of dvd's from WB and some snappers from New Line. I hate sanppers! I went to dvdcoverart.com and got myself some scans and custom covers for my dvd's and replaced the snappers with amarays....Now I don't have single snapper in my collection. I also converted all my dvd's in double alpha cases into amaray slim double cases. Saves me a lot of shelf space.
Check out the website they got really cool custom cover art.

Snappers do suck, especially the ones that try and squeeze in two discs, ala JFK.

johnbook

Where???

reubs82

Yeah, really. Was this a record? Just over a week since this last type of thread?

Maybe this should be in the Cases and Covers subforum...

Squirrel God

My copy of the Matrix comes in a keepcase (it's Region 4)


The Canadian release of Blade comes in a keepcase

TREX1993

Sorry...I just double-checked and my Fellowship of the Ring Extended Edition is NOT in a snapper...

El Talon Del Monstruo

and so is the American one....New Line is rereleasing most of thier movies in Keepcases now

I guess I'm not shopping at the right stores..... Citizen Kane, Singin' In The Rain, Close Encounters, Lawrence of Arabia, On The Waterfront, Das Boot, Gladiator, Chicago, Hitchcock titles, Criterion titles, etc. etc. - I can't find any of these in snappers!

DJ_Longfellow

Gladiator & Chicago, BEST DVD's????

Morrison

I Have Blade It's a Snapper. Did They Re-release it in a keep case?

marty888

If we're starting out with a list that includes Training Day and Blade (both are movies I own and enjoy, by the way), why not? I realize it's still fashionable to dump on Gladiator, and Chicago has an outstanding commentary that is one of the best I've heard.

DJ_Longfellow

I know I was just kidding with ya....the DVD's may look great, but the movies were just not good in my opinion. Which is ok, we all have opinions. I was able to watch ALL of gladiator, but my GF and I actually turned off Chicago...just seemed BORING

The Bus

All my favorite DVDs are circular.

mookiemeister

Maybe someone need to tell WB to change to keep case?

3Js

I believe I read somewhere that WB owns the company that makes the snappers.

If that's true we are probably going to have the snapper with us for a while to come.

PixyJunket

..and the US version doesn't have "Le Blade" on the cover.

PatrickMcCart

WB knows damn well that keep cases are wanted. It's just that there are millions of discs out there already in snappers...

They're probably switching to them in the near future (T-3 and Matrix 2 are in keep cases), but that leaves a gazillion titles in snappers on shelves.

WB's discs are usually a bargain and the case, IMO, is worth it. $14.99 for a special edition like North By Northwest is worth it.
