Big box sets devoted to one movie?
 
After buying the big Bonnie and Clyde and Close Encounters box sets, I was just wondering if there were any other big box sets just devoted to one film. Does anybody know of any?

Dawn of the Dead, Blade Runner spring to mind

I hear Blade Runner had some attention doted upon it.

I'm not sure if any of those fit the criteria. I'm thinking larger box sets with more than 2 discs and lots of supplemental material.

Scarface although I believe the original is included.

I'd at least keep these in the list:
The Rocky Horror Picture Show came with the movie, sequel, soundtrack and prop bag

Dust Devil came with the movie, a working edit, soundtrack and 3 amazing documentaries

Grindhouse had a large Japanese release with 6 discs

Hellboy had 3 discs and tons of supplemental material

I'll also add the Matrix set.

Spider-man had a limited collector's edition that came in a rather large box.
Wicker-man came in a wooden box.

Yep, have them both. I just thought the OP was specifically calling for box sets that were more big in content, not in empty space or non-media content. But I could be wrong.

And Mister Peepers, good call in calling out those of your list that I tried to "disqualify". I had forgotten to edit my post for a couple of them. I have that Dust Devil set and it has an amazing amount of media content. 5 discs devoted to one director/set of films. I didn't know about the 6 disc Japanese Grindhouse set. Wow. That might have to be my first region (2?) purchase.

I really wish they would get around releasing that monster of a Grindhouse set. Stupid Weinstein Company isn't getting my money until I get the movie I saw in theaters, not a neutered version. I wish the Kill Bill set would come out already too, had to pick those up at Target 2 for 20, it was killing me not to own them, but with Grindhouse I can wait, as they are both on Netflix Watch Now.

I wonder why this thread was moved? I would think the main forum would be a more appropriate place for this thread.

Anyways, these are 3+ disc sets that come to mind that haven't been mentioned:

Gladiator - 3-disc set
Lord of the Rings: FOTR - EE (4 discs)
Lord of the Rings: TT - EE (4 discs)
Lord of the Rings: ROTK - EE (4 discs)
