That's pretty rough considering the other reviews haven't nearly been as negative.

For what it's worth, I remember parts of the film looking relatively soft in the theater, and this was a digital projection on opening night. It may be partly the transfer being crammed onto one disc and partly the softness of the source.

Is the Bestbuy set the only store exclusive? I was hoping someone would have a bonus disc. I don't really want/need a Captain Teague figure...they should have done a Jack Sparrow figure instead.

Wal-Mart is having some kind of DVD-Rom attached to the single-disc version (a game I assume, it has a video game rating symbol on the front), nothing too exciting.

Best Buy has a bonus disc featuring 43 minutes of bonus content. They are also offering a 18" talking Captain Teague figure with purchase of any format of "Pirates: At World's End" and the 2 disc gift set with 7" figure.

WalMart has a PC game bundled with the single disc set

Target has an exclusive 2 disc set with with bonus features, bloopers, deleted scenes and an exclusive movie ticket to see "National Treasure 2". The Target add says "Exclusive Deluxe Edition" so I'm figuring it has more than the regular 2 disc set.

Circuit City has a visual guide with purchase.

K-Mart/Sears is offering a 3'X2' banner.

Toys 'R Us is offering a free wall clock.

FYE I'm sure with have something but have not heard.

Futureshop in Canda is offering a Steelbook. Does not mention if it's a 1 or 2 disc set though.

Thanks for the run-down So the bonus features, bloopers, deleted scenes etc. that are on the Target set are not included on the regular 2-disc edition?

geicos27

I'm pretty sure it's the same exact set as everywhere else. Target always advertises these sets as if the have exclusive material but they rarely do. They normally are just pointing out the special features.

Oh, there's a commentary all right...but you have to buy the BluRay version to get it. Disney can lick my balls when they pull these kinds of stunts.

Takeshi357

Well, didn't someone also claim that they make the SD versions deliberately worse in visual department to make the HD versions look even better?

Frozenhamster

Um... There is no commentary on any of the releases.

Rammsteinfan

I would have preferred if they drop the spanish track, bloopers and trailers for a commentary track. Surely that would have fit if they drop those other features. Still gonna get the 2 disc + bonus dvd at BB regardless.

God, Part II

Actually, the only thing that makes this set exclusive to Target is the NATIONAL TREASURE 2 movie cash; otherwise, it's got the identical features of the 2-disc everywhere else. Best Buys wins this one.

zombiezilla

But WHAT is on the 43-minute BB exclusive DVD? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller? ANYONE?

undrwrldangel24

Thanks for your help everyone. I'm gonna go with the BB bonus disc on Tuesday.

chris_sc77

I dont know whats on it but i can sure as shit bet those bonus features could fit on that 2nd disk...

(Sorry, I'll stop bitching about this release now. I just hate to see fans of these films get treated so badly when it comes to these DVD releases or huge films like this.)

mdnitoil

Sheesh, sometimes I need to pay more attention. I was thinking of Ratatouille. Just ignore me.

Blu-ray exclusive

Inside the Maelstrom (HD) - At first, this appears to be just a short 8-minute featurette with time-lapse footage of the the film's gigantic "maelstrom" set being constructed. However, as narrator Jerry Bruckheimer soon explains, this is actually an interactive "set tour" allow you to branch off to various related vignettes that further dissects the sequence. As the featurette plays, small icons appear with various labels ("Visual Effects," "Compositing," "Audio Tour," etc). Click on any icon, and it will branch off to related content. Most of these are short sequences (usually 1- to 2-minutes), though some are more substantial, with submenus of additional content options. The cool thing is that this entire feature uses the Blu-ray spec's accessible memory to "remember" what you've watched. So, as you click through the options, the icons will be checked off as you go, preventing you from mistakenly watching the same stuff over and over. All told, there's about 40 minutes of material here, which adds up to a pretty robust exclusive for Blu-ray.

w0ot, my Futureshop Steelbook was shipped today! I hope this one will be at least half as rare as Dead Man's chest!

At least the U.S won't be getting a steelbook so that always makes things a little more rare!

jsz1002

Is the Pirates gift set (at Best Buy) with the 7" Captain Teague the 2 disc edition of the film or is it the one disc with the bonus disc inside? The web site isn't clear on this.

OldBoy

just curious, but why does any of that make a difference?

haleyxvader

Some people like having rare things.

Im not like that about DVDs but I am about records, I collect hardcore 7"s and I love test presses, limited pressings and color vinyl.

Jonno2006

Yeah like haleyxvader said it's always nice to have things some people don't. Like when i found out that my X-3 steelbook was really rare it was a nice feeling hehe. :P

What does Walmart have for exclusives?
