We had like 4 or 5 Threads before I decided to keep an "official" one updated. To make that list, I culled sources from around the internet (here, Digital Bits, Home Theater Forum, DVD Active, etc). I used every available online resource to get the list started. You could call that a hackjob but it got the job done. I think it's more disrespectful to ignore information that's already been offered from others.

Once the building process was done, I started hitting each store on a weekly basis to catalog every slipcover that came out each week. And anything I missed, a fellow member would step up and mention what they found. No trolls. Just very appreciative and helpful members of our DVD community. If you dedicate yourself to something designed to help others, and are respectful to them, they'll be grateful for your dedication and more willing to help out.

I just feel bad I haven't had the opportunity to keep the DVD Slipcover Thread updated like I use to. Once I started working overseas, my weekly trips to the stores have dropped dramatically.

Just my two cents.

Blade Runner does indeed have a slipcase.

That's not true. The blu-ray version of Blade Runner never had a slipcover. You're probably confused with the DVD version. :scratch2:

I do have the DVD version with slipcover.

However, I can swear that I have seen and held the BR at Target and it had a cover.

I will check again, but I'm pretty sure it has a sc. stayed tuned amigo....

Hey Istvan,

Maybe you should separate the slipcovers from the special collector's keepcases. It would make sense. Hence the thread title. Make two lists.

you mean start a new thread or just separate the lists in the same post?


I'm think of just changing this from slipcovers to all blu-ray that are not naked cases.

honestly I dont care if its "steelbook" or "metalpack" or whatnot, as long as the BR is housed in something cool and relatively collectible.

This is the worst thread ever. The lack of organization and overall purpose, plus the inability to believe other members when they list slipcovers that are obviously real has caused this thread to fail before it even started. The Blu-ray.com thread is infinitely superior, and it's all anyone would ever need.

Oh snap. What's up, Al? Didn't realize this was you. Your new thread is much better ;).
