Loved it. 2 disc all the way. Admittedly, not for everyone... but, compared to the other monster movie in recent memory... I liked it a lot more than I liked Cloverfield (which I did enjoy).

I'm very interested to see the B&W version.


And Rolling Stone? Worst horror movie of the year?! WTF? Out of what I saw that goes to Halloween or Saw IV.

No, because I assumed a huge retailer like Amazon would actually stock this. Thanks for the heads-up!

I liked the film a lot, but was on the fence about owning it. Now with the extras released, hell yeah I'm down to buy it. I knew they include the B&W version! Awesome, sure the Blu ray would be better, but take what you can get sometimes.

Ain't it cool news has posted video of the Introduction to the Black and White version of the film.

Aside from the inappropriate red tint (probably chosen to make the cover look more ominous to the horror-section shelf-browser), I rather like it. There are no floating heads, no monsters shown/spoiled, the text is small enough to let the art be dominant, and it's a variation on the original poster art. The font used also pays tribute to the pulpy old horror movies Darabont was inspired by.

Get rid of Pete Hammond's fanboyism and I'm perfectly fine with the art. He'd probably give the Ass movie from Idiocracy a glowing review.

Hmm...I'll take a shot at what's wrong with that one... It sucks?

The DVD art looks very similar to the theatrical poster.

This might be a little bit premature, but I think it will be released as a Best Buy Exclusive Steelbook:

Rammsteinfan 02-10-08 06:40 PM

Ohhh gonna go for the steelbook if thats what it is. Even if its a differnet exclusive cover, ill go for anything besides the regular cover art.

let's hope it's a different cover artwork too.

manicsounds 02-25-08 11:40 PM

why did this disappear from most e-tailers?
amazon doesnt have it up anymore, best buy still says March 25th, cdwow says April 22nd.

argh923 02-26-08 02:02 AM

Looks like it's been delayed...maybe for a Blu-Ray release as well?

I know the picture doesn't match at ALL - but the cast is definitely from The Mist.

mikelowry 02-26-08 05:46 AM

Amazon emailed that it was available for pre order, but it just vanished from their site after a couple of days. Really a big wonder for me.

manicsounds 02-28-08 05:29 AM

http://www.amazon.com/Mist-Two-Disc-...4198039&sr=1-2

Its back, same March 25th date, same price

ScissorPuppy 02-28-08 07:03 AM

The background coverart is from the international poster.

I wish they would have done the two disc like WB did for TGM and TSR. Some nice art, which the alternate poster could have worked for.

Matthew Ackerly 03-18-08 03:49 PM

Anyone have any idea what the best buy exclusive is?

Cosmic Bus 03-18-08 05:39 PM

Borders has this one out a week early (it's listed as a laydown for the 18th on all of our date listings and merchandising materials). $22.99 for the 2-disc.

Rammsteinfan 03-18-08 06:32 PM

Yup, borders had a ton of copies out. Got the 2 disc. Do they all come w/ the Limited Edition booklet or is that a Borders exclusive?

Cosmic Bus 03-18-08 07:09 PM

I think they all come with it, or at least the 2-disc does. The only exclusive Borders had this week was the Atonement postcards, IIRC.

dman988 03-18-08 07:19 PM

Should I wait for the BD version (that surely should come out since Genius will start releasing Blu this year) or just pick up the 2-disc at Borders?

Somebody help please...

xfilekr 03-18-08 07:46 PM

Dark Delicacies has it on their site...forget where I saw this posted at:
THE MIST
On March 25th at 7 p.m., Thomas Jane signs the two-disc collector's edition of THE MIST (DVD).

Ended up $41 w/ shipping for me.

Was the booklet attached to the outside of the DVD or was it packed in? Any Borders sticker on the front?

If it was attached on the outside, it's 100% a Borders exclusive.

If not, then it's 50/50, could be Borders exclusive, or could be native to the 2-disc. Pan's Labyrinth had a Borders exclusive booklet packed inside for example.

Rammsteinfan 03-18-08 09:53 PM

It has a sticker on the outside and the book inside but doesnt say exclusive to Borders. I havent opened it yet in case someone knows of a better exclusive somewhere else. I may just open it later tonight. i doubt anyone out there will have a steelbook or 3 disc exclusive...?
