so, wait, now I'm really confused, the ticket is offered when you buy the disc? It's not part of the packaging from Best Buy... ?? Cause the version I bought from Best Buy is the three disc version with the Underworld: Evolution Bonus disc.

I don't know for sure, but I doubt that the movie ticket is included in the packaging. I don't see how they could have a ticket for the upcoming movie inside of the Resident Evil case(one of the titles that qualifies for the free ticket). I would wager that you would have to ask the cashier for the ticket, the same way as when they hand out exclusive lithographs. There's even an item number for the movie ticket in the ad-7602506. If I wanted the ticket, I would go to BB and show the ad to a blue shirt and see what the dealio is.:)

How much is RE going for at BB....that might be worth picking up since I'm going to see the new Underworld anyways.


Check this out.

From this it sounds like it's most likely something you have to pick up in the store.

Looks like I might not even have one... I thought the ticket was in all copies, but now people are saying it's a BB exclusive. I ordered mine from Amazon.com when they had a really low pre-order price on it.

Did the old copy come with the slip cover? I thought I have seen it before without it. Anyway for 3 discs for $12.99 this is a very good deal. I just bought it blind at CC. No BB by me yet or I would have pricematched it there. $13 for a 3disc set and a free movie ticket would have been an even better deal.

Considering they are going to make a 3rd film. I'm waiting for a trilogy boxset, if even more are going to be considered, I'll wait even longer.

It's just like with BLADE! I'm doing the same thing with FINAL DESTINATION! I can wait.



I do have the Underworld Superbit though...

what a friggin' fiasco - after wasting thiry minutes of my time at BB - here's the story: Columbia/TriStar Home video supposedly gives each Best Buy a booklet of movie coupons that they hand out with the purchase of Resident Evil (Deluxe) and Underworld (Ext) - and as my misluck would have it - the Tenleytown BB didn't receive the movie coupons to distribute with these discs - so.... I'll have to wait til Friday when I'll get my coupon. (I hate this Best Buy with a passion)

Oh thank god I decided against this...The way Best Buys are in Queens, they will never have the fucking ticket so Ill just stick with my old one for now, and wait for a trilogy set on HD or Blu-Ray.

does anyone know if it includes best buys in Canada?

I bought the Underworld Extended Cut and didn't know about having to ask for the ticket, so I went back in and said I didn't get it in the package. A guy from the media section brings up what he says is the ticket, but when I looked at it at home, it states that it's only for Memoirs of a Geisha or Fun With Dick and Jane, so it appears I have to go back again, to get the actual ticket I should have gotten in the first place. What a pain in the ass.

That must be Best buy's new trick. Keep making you come back to the store in hopes that you might buy something else while you're there.:)

yup. the movie is good fun, and as others have mentioned the 2nd disc of extras is nice.

I think every store has the same bonus disc and the exclusive ticket being sold at BB is packaged seperately, which seems to be a new trend. This is at least the second time that they've done it. There were a bunch of $10 (or $15 maybe) discs a month ago that, if you bought, you would get a seperate free ticket good for either "Fun With Dick And Jane" or "Memoirs Of a Geisha".

As people have discovered, the movie ticket is separate at Best Buy. However, I'm still not clear of several things. It sounds like the DVDs at Best Buy, Walmart, and Circuit City all have 3 DVDs inside (I'm not going to open mine until I've figured out what's going on) based on others' comments.

I noticed the older 2-DVD Extended edition of Underworld has a slightly different slipcase and a UPC of 043396051942, while the reissued 2-DVD Extended edition has a UPC of 043396132931 and a sticker on front saying "Underworld Evolution Sneak Peek". If you look at the descriptions for the 2 editions below:

http://www.bordersstores.com/search/...sp?id=54278790
http://www.bordersstores.com/search/...sp?id=55731150

You'll see that the extras listed are slightly different. However, the back cover of the reissue exactly matches the old edition. Most important, the reissue mentions an Underworld Evolution sneak peek DVD. Unless they changed the contents of disc 2 this implies there must be a 3rd DVD inside the reissue with the sticker on the front. If that's the case, then Circuit City advertising the 3rd bonus DVD is not exclusive to CC.

The bottomline is that there appears to be NO LOSS IN CONTENT between the reissue and the previous 2-DVD Extended edition and the comic book and sketch booklet are also listed as included.

Can anyone confirm this is correct?

If so, then this is a great deal because you get the 3rd bonus DVD plus a movie ticket at Best Buy. Apparently some people had signs that let them get it for $9.99, but my Best Buy didn't have any signs that I could see so I paid $12.99.

Yes the ticket is separate. When I picked up the old extended edition on Sunday, the tickets were with the new releases/bestsellers.

I'm wondering if I should try to return the old edition for the new edition (I haven't opened it yet)

In a way you're asking the same thing I asked above which was if there are any differences in content between the old edition and the reissue. If anyone can confirm the reissue doesn't lose anything and gains a 3rd DVD and movie ticket, then it might be worthwhile. Since I didn't have the old edition it wasn't an issue. However, at Borders I saw the old edition for $30.99 and the reissue for $19.99 right next to each other, and that got me wondering if the old edition has something the reissue doesn't.

Like Ben Stein said "anyone? anyone? anyone know?"

CC has the third disc, and no ticket.

Anyone buy it elsewhere?

Just got back from Best Buy in San Francisco. Would have thought it came in the case just like the others. Made sure to ask the guy before hand if they still had any of the tickets. So thanks for the warnings. It comes in a cardboard sleeve.

Here's what it looks like...

I'll probably go out tonight to BB to see if I can pricematch it and get the movie ticket. If not, I'll just take the ticket and pay $15, since I'm going to see the second one anyways.

I didn't look closely at the packaging for the movie ticket until just now. It clearly says "Bonus DVD" on January 10th, so that means the one from Best Buy should have the same 3rd bonus DVD that Circuit City offers. If not the ticket they are handing out is very misleading.

Has anyone who bought Underworld Extended (the one with UPC 043396132931) opened up your package to confirm there are 2 DVDs plus a bonus DVD inside and that both the sketchbook and comic book are inside?

Also, how many other people are finding $9.99 signs at their stores for the Extended edition?

I own 2 copies of Underworld so this was a triple dip for me. I felt this set was loaded with goodies including the extra disk and the comic book. Unfortunately no movie ticket but it was worth 12.99 in my opinion (I brought BB ad for price match). If anyone can get to Best Buy and get the set plus the movie ticket that is a STEAL!

I never bought the movie on DVD and so now I'm in!

I thought I had mentioned this before - the edition I bought at Best Buy had all three DVDs: the movie disc, supplementary material disc, 'Underworld: Evolution' bonus disc, sketchbook and comic book. Just no ticket... :(

Bought it last night at WalMart. I thought the ticket was for all the DVDs, but oh well. I probably won't ever watch Evolutions until it comes out on DVD.

Guess I'll know to ask at BB...
