I imagine this is what will be released in April. Still don't know how they were available for sale here In Canada and not in the U.S. Also "Author, Author" and "Panic In Needle Park" is not included in this set, but there was a rectangle "Also Available" insert included in the box. If anyone's interested in scans of this or the covers i can post them.

Wow, I never thought Pacino would do a commentary.

Anyway, still waiting for Cruising.

*Sigh*..."Author, Author" and "Panic In Needle Park" are delayed again.

Now the new supposed date is June 9th.

anyone keeping tabs on how many times this set has been delayed...
I am getting rather pissed off about this.

You ve got to be kidding me. Now this is ridiculous. How many times has this title been delayed now?

Time to start downloading.

OK, in 4 days (on 6/19) this set is supposed to be released yet again.
DVD empire has back cover art for the set and it appears to come in a box with 4 slim line cases for each disk in the set.
i am about to pre-order this from DD but amazon appears to not even have a listing for this so my question is, can anyone confirm that is is going to be coming out this time?
It seems that this was never going to be released with all of these delays.

Pacino was just on Larry King advertising it, so I'm guessing it is coming out this time.

I've had mine since November and the movies are in regular keep cases. Interested in knowing if the version released Tues (June 19th) have been changed to slim line cases.

It says in the post you quoted that it does...?

The Pacino Box Set, plus Panic in Needle Park and Author Author have been shipped by DVD Empire.

Why doesn't amazon have this set (the one with Looking For Richard)? It's available through some market place sellers, but not amazon itself - or any other website for that matter. What gives? Has anyone been able to find this at stores like Best Buy?

The box set seems to be widely available in Canada. I received my order last week from Amazon.ca and I've also seen it on the shelf at Futureshop.

What movies are included?

Everything that's listed in post 51.

Saw it at Fry's.

Nice call with Frys - they had it on sale too ($24), which is pretty good for two movies, a short film and a documentary, not to mention the extras with Al.

Though I have to bitch about it's packaging. Since these discs will only be available in this set, why did they package them in 4 separate, full-sized amaray cases? They could have just jammed thim into a nice little digipack that could've taken up half the space. Or heck, instead of 4 discs, the whole shebang could've easily fit onto to two discs - single sided ones at that. Oh well.
