Oh and it seems that the disdain towards the coverart was enough to start this petition: http://www.petitiononline.com/SerenDVD/petition.html |
Fan covers already being made: http://browncoats.serenitymovie.com/...er=asc&start=0

Regarding the Australian DVD release: http://www.serenitymovie.com.au/viewtopic.php?t=1705

Besides everyone being all bug-eyed, that's a lot better.
|
If the Aussie ver. has better artwork (considering the R1 :yack:, that's already a given) AND DTS, i'm gonna hold out for that release.

I don't mind the menus, but this coverart really is atrocious. I might just make a custom black cover with the Serenity logo, sort of like Armageddon Criterion.
Still, I'm looking forward to this. |

I don't totally hate what we're getting, it's nice enough, but they really could have done a much better job. And made Summer look like Summer, and not some 25 year old whore (companion). |
I'll be there for the DVD, and it'll be the first time I've ever longed for a double dip. There's no way I'm not buying this, but I sure hope they give us some more special features.
I don't hate the cover as much as some, but after seeing some fan covers I decided Universal could have done MUCH better! Some more fan cover art can be found hosted in my gallery at www.exoticcatz.com/fireflyphotos This is my favorite fan cover: http://www.exoticcatz.com/fireflypho...dvdhighres.jpg |
I'm curious why some in this thread feel that this release isn't a SE?
Is it just because there's no cast commentary? Or that it doesn't go as in-depth as say one of the LOTR:EE DVDs (which I doubt they'll ever do)? I mean it's got director's commentary, deleted scenes, a couple of documentaries, etc, it's far from being a bare bones release. Joss Whedon was even quoted as saying this was how he wanted the film to be, so no added footage needs to be put back in for an extended edition/director's cut. |
Can't wait to get my fingers on this disc. I loved this movie.

All i can see of the dvd cases on my shelf are the spines so the cover isnt that important to me.

RocShemp : Cool thanks, I must have missed that interview.

I'm a huge fan and I'll be UPS-ing a copy to the UK, so my question is which retailer is more reliable about release dates, amazon or DVDempire.
Empire have chaeper UPS costs, but this movie is a must have VIP pressies so it's got to get here in time. |

Is this better edition still going to come out, or did the movie's lack of box office success affect it? |

Amazon.com has dropped their price to $16.98
|
My guess is that Universal will release the "Shiny Edition" dvd or a name equally as cutsy and more repulsive. I personally will buy whatever they throw at us just in the vain hope of seeing a sequel. Long live the crew of Serenity.
|
well where is this interview where he stated a better edition is coming out, i guess i cannot wait with all this uncertainty, i have to pick it up.

Here's some good news browncoats (though it's not officially confirmed):

The project is said to be a lower budget undertaking streamlined for the small-screen. IGN FilmForce checked with Joss Whedon's camp who denied the claim; Universal did not comment. Time will tell if this rumor pans out. |
Must not get excited... must not get excited...
It would work just as good on TV as any other medium. I'm not sure what the budget was for the show, but it looked great to me! |
