Now that is some horrible artwork, guess it's trying to mimic the movie. Still gonna get it though just to complete the collection.

I wonder what it will retail for? Movie was ok.

I'll get this.

I can smell a place like Best Buy selling the 1-discer for about $15 and the 2-disc for about $25. Don't forget, the price listed on that site is the MSRP, but there is no way they will be selling it for that much.

Ill buy the two disc even thought i hated the movie just to go with 1,2, and 2.1 that i already have.

Weak ass cover art. At least change it up for the single and 2-disc releases. Oh well, guess they're saving the good artwork for the eventual double-dip.

In the minority on this one. I really enjoyed it. I agree that it doesn't match the greatness of the first two, but I wasn't disappointed.

Now, the cover art is another matter. The single-disc is fine, but the 2-disc is terrible. That border doesn't work at all. Scaling the single-disc artwork down might have helped. As it is, the 2-disc just looks lazy. Borders seem to be a delicate business.

So, no trilogy box for DVD?

i am a little surprised that they are waiting so long, usually they rush the blockbusters to dvd while it is fresh in peoples minds, and are more likley to pay $15 to $20 for the dvd

YES!!!!

For the Trilogy on Blu-Ray, I can't wait for that!!

So they're trying to force everyone to buy the BD trilogy?

How are they trying to force anything?

--THX

If you want the BR version, you're stuck getting the trilogy.

Wait, what? The BR Spider-Man 3 is available separately.

The thing is, the 2-disk edition should be available for $15 opening week just like Spider-Man and Spider-Man 2 two disk editons were.
The studios have found a weakness that they are exploiting and this seperate 2-disk shit is really pissin me off.

Best Buy better be offering a steelbook or something. Because I was on the fence with this movie as it was and combine that with high prices and truly horrible artwork so far this is a no go. Even though I thought it was the best blockbuster movie of the summer.

There was a mention of gift (the 3-pack) set by Sony Home Entertainment Press Release:

"CULVER CITY, CALIF. (August 3, 2007) – Spider-Man™ 3 becomes the home entertainment event of the year when Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (SPHE) releases the international blockbuster on DVD October 30, in time for the holiday gift-giving season. Spider-Man™ 3 will be available in several versions for fans to collect including a single-disc release, a two-disc Special Edition release, PSP, and a three-pack DVD release which will include Spider-Man™ and Spider-Man™ 2 on DVD with collectible O-Ring packaging. Also available is the Spider-Man™ High Definition Trilogy, a three-pack release of all three films on Blu-ray™ High-Def allowing fans an exclusive opportunity to collect both Spider-Man™ and Spider-Man™ 2 in high definition, along with Spider-Man™ 2.1 and Spider-Man™ 3. "


And for the others who are wondering what the heck is an "O-RING".. its a Sony marketing term for this type of DVD slipcase:








And for those who can't wait to get a SpiderMan 3 Collectible

This is so far the one which is out (The first Blu Ray Exclusive and Limited Edition release):

The price seem too steep! What the hell's the matter Sony? Cover art's not that impressive compared to the R2 versions.

Wow, that cover art sucks. I would have expected a lenticular slipcover of the red suit changing into the black one, much like the theatrical posters people were paying $1000+ for on ebay. Regardless, this movie was awful and it's going to take a lot for me to resist buying it as I'm a completionist.

by "giftset" i meant like the limited giftsets of Spider Man 1 and Spider Man 2...the ones with the comics and all..

Were people this upset about the dvd list price when Paramount set $39.99 list prices for the 2-disc versions of World Trade Center and Mission Impossible 3?

Pretty awful Artwork for the 1 disc DVD vr., The 2 disc DVD looks a little better, but not by much. You think Sony would make the Artwork for the Blu-Ray HD Spider-Man trilogy a little nicer than that. It feels like Sony is embarrassed that they are releasing Spider-Man 3.

terrible cover art.

I'll skip this and maybe wait and get the extended edition. Hopefully added scenes will help make more sense of the movie....

i'll be in for this. maybe just the collection of all 3 since it doesn't look like they are doing a limited edition set.

Psst..No one bought those movies.
