Thanks Abe (I still owe you big time on the tip of getting slipcases for steelbooks)

Here it is:

Are most people doing this?

Also, I have to add that the steelbook for Iron Man is just awesome, I love the picture on the back. If this is what we can expect from Marvel studios, a solid two disc right off the bat, then I am glad to see them taking over some of their character franchises.

The two feature length documentaries on there are awesome and I think the only thing lacking is the original teaser and trailers for the movie.

of course it won't help when the next edition comes out with commentary by Favreau and Downey Jr. which i heard was already recorded. but, nothing will top that nearly 2hr. making of which was fantastic and 2nd ever i watched in its entirety (Platoon's doc being the first).

True, didn't think of commentaries as I rarely if ever listen to those, but yeah I guess however solid releases are now, they are always setting up for the double dip before the first version is even out.

I really don't understand why they didn't include the trailers. Very disappointing.

As far as the mir is concerned I always just send in the sticky price tag from FYE. I have NEVER been denied over the last 5 or so years. Also I already sent in the mir for Iron Man and already got the confirmation.

dizzlle01 10-18-08 01:38 AM

Hey xage, Im curious how you have your whole dd collection set up. Im pretty sure we all like to see.

fumanstan 10-18-08 11:35 AM

Wow, the DVD doesn't include the trailers? That's weird since they're on the Blu-ray.

Not sure if DVDtalk's servers can handle that sort of bandwidth.

have you seen xages past pics? he would require a camera on a helicopter to fit his collection in :D

gogogadget 10-19-08 02:44 AM

I thought they said they never got together to do a recorded commentary - this was said at that screening with live commentary done in LA. Check it out on Youtube. But yeah, they will double dip when Iron Man 2 comes out.

because they're collectors. same reason people collect stamps that they'll never put on an envelope or coins that they'll never spend.

As an adult male, I agree and wish that all movies consisted of conversations about our feelings. Fuckin' Hollywood.


edit: Looking at your post history, I see you're a Star Trek fan. How is "Dudes in sci-fi spaceship stop bad guys" any different than "Dude in sci-fi suit stops bad guys"?

Also, except for the movies ST was free... and I dont recall seeing the CGI Hulk in many other roles or on stage. I also have since sold all DVD's ..There have been good Hollywood action films without superhero costumes...I was just saying this mostly in regard to those who buy 12 different copies of same film...they have that right and its fine , I just honestly wanted to know why..a good friend collected all the Apes heads and Gollum figures etc..now selling them off and remorseful...maybe its age and 35-45 and 25 year olds see things differently..as for movies with feelings ..being angry enough to swear over this seems like someone who needs to control theirs a bit.


Why do you care? You're in a DVD collectors forum asking why people buy DVDs. Are you doing some kind of Anthropological study?

canaryfarmer 10-21-08 09:03 AM

I wasn't upset at all, or angry. (I see it probably did come off that way though.) Heck, I haven't even seen Iron Man yet. It just seemed a bit threadcrappy to wonder how people could possibly enjoy an Iron Man movie if you're over the age of 10. That's for the movie forum, not the dvd thread (and it still came off as awfully condescending). Also, please use periods instead of non-stop ellipses. It's like reading one long-ass sentence. I'm also wondering why you bother with this particular forum if you don't own or buy dvds at all. I can't imagine you'd be reading that much useful information.

ksgemini 10-22-08 05:43 AM

I did not mean to be condescending. I'd rather forget this thread so the powers that be can delete my part in it. Yes, it was an anthropological question to some degree but people are free to like what they like. I rent, but not buy, (that's why I watch these boards sometimes), because there are few movies I want to see more than once or twice. Also, I was writing hurriedly and left out punctuation to finish the post quick. I still don't understand why it was met with another off color word in the last reply. I guess I just have a different perspective as there are a lot of great indy films that never get shown and Batman just rakes in money for weeks. I can geek out like anyone. I am that one person that liked the last X Files movie. I think I just associate some films with being 10 because that's when I bought comics.

Nothing personal, I promise; I just can't quash my use of casual profanity. :foot:

Iron Man Silver Mask Edition?
 
Hi. I was browsing the HMV Canada site and noticed another entry for Iron Man, "Iron Man/ Silver Mask Collectors Edition/2BRD : WDS: LTD: PG on DVD"

http://www.hmv.ca/hmvcaweb/en_CA/dis...do?sku=1253793

I'm thinking it might be a BluRay release and perhaps the Mark I head. Can't be sure as they never updated the picture for the first Iron Man mask release.. Has anyone heard of another wide release mask version?

hmm i am intrigued. im sure if thats the case, news will follow soon enough :D

johnsun 12-02-08 07:52 PM

Ok. I guess I should have expected to just be a repaint of the original Mark III helmet and now called Mark II. Comes in Blu-Ray edition only.. Debating whether to keep it was I already have the Blu-Ray SteelBook..

Anyone seen this anywhere else in the US?

MadonnasManOne 12-03-08 05:53 AM

As someone else stated, you'd need a helicopter doing an aerial shot to get xage's collection.

And even then, there could be issues based on how high the helicopter could fly.
