in light of the sale this week, is this edition really worth an upgrade for people who already own it?

Cinemaddiction

You'd be crazy not to. $14.99 for the 2 disc set, plus a bonus disc AND a ticket to the movie? In addition, the EE of "Underworld" plugs A LOT of holes the theatrical version left, i.e. Michael's origins, Kraven and Erika's past relationship.

It's worth it if you have the original release, but not if you already have the 2-disc unrated, imo.

mifuneral

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is exactly the same as the 2 disc unrated extended edition. Except it's cheaper. And it has an Underworld 2 promo.

*shrugs* I already have the Unrated EE, and I don't need the promo to help me decide if I wanna see the sequel (I was already planning on going).

If you only had the original single disc, I'd say yeah, now's the time to upgrade. But if you already have the EE, obviously don't bother.

It's definitely worth an upgrade...if you are a sucker!

FantasticVSDoom

Hmmmm...Maybe I will upgrade since I still have the original release and there is a movie ticket.

matome

Same here.

OldBoy

where's it on sale? i can't seem to find it...

cisman

I voted no since I have the Unrated version myself already but I'd be all over this if I had the original version and would just sell the original on ebay.

Shoot I'm still tempted since my version is a used copy but I"ll resist.

I'll be there probably that Friday night to see this one.

MovieExchange

I held off on buying the single disc since I knew a 2-disc was coming. Then no one had a new copy of the 2-disc at a good price, and I never saw it at any of the used stores.

So yeah, I'm picking it up. Yet another movie cash coupon that I won't be able to use, though.

Giles

I just bought the new edition from Best Buy and I don't see my promised ticket for the sequel - I am absolutely F***-ING livid.

Giles

if you aren't going to use the movie cash coupon send it to me... (please)

FantasticVSDoom

Great...Im about to go pick it up, and if it isnt there I will have an annuerism. Maybe I should just pass.

Just about to head over to Wal-Mart at lunch to buy Transporter 2. If they's got this at a good price I might end up getting it. I have the old single disc version and I LOVE the movie, so it would be nice having an extended version. And a free ticket to see a movie I'm definitely going to is a plus.

Circuit City--$12.99.

Giles

thankfully I got BB to price match CC's price, but after watching the film and supplements I am sending this disc to CD Game Exchange for the some instore credit... (I'm still fuming BTW).

Sweet Baby James

I would take it back to BB and tell them it's defective. They'll exchange it for a new copy and they'll open up the new one in the store. If the new one doesn't have the ticket, tell them that you only want it if the ticket is included. They'll either keep opening up new copies until they find one with the ticket included or they will have to give you a refund.

Giles

oh I hadn't thought of that, now there an idea, thanks Sweet Baby James.

tacos

I thought the ticket was a BB exclusive? Is this not the case?
Thanks

Sweet Baby James

I just looked at the BB ad for the free movie ticket and it says that you get a free movie ticket(up to $10 value) to see Underworld Evolution with the purchase of Underworld Unrated Extended Cut, Underworld Special Edition or Resident Evil Deluxe Edition. I can't see how they would include a ticket in the older Resident Evil and Underworld SE DVDs. I would conclude that the ticket isn't located inside the case-you probably have to ask for it at the register.

Scott Weinberg

Looks to work out this way:

Best Buy: Buy the new Underworld "LE," the original SE, or the Resident Evil DE and you get movie cash for $10.

Circuit City: Buy the new Underworld "LE" and you get a throw-in disc that has some promotional stuff for Underworld: Evolution.

I'll be doing the upgrade, since I presently own the theatrical cut, and I want the upgrade. I think the added footage helps the flick a lot.

Trevor

CC has a 3rd exclusive disc with this also.

alfonsosoriano

So if you want the movie ticket, price match CC's price at Best Buy?

Sweet Baby James

That's what I would do. However, if you do have to ask for the movie ticket, they might tell you that you can either take the ticket or the price match, but not both. Sometimes BB won't let you do a PM and also take an exclusive deal-definitely a YMMV.

dadaluholla

I just bought it at Wal-Mart for $14 something. I wasn't aware the ticket deal was a Best Buy exclusive. Oh well. I still wanted the upgrade.

It had the 3rd bonus disc in a seperate cardboard case shrinkwrapped together. I just took it out of there and put in a little paper sleeve inside the case.
