First day purchase. It's still playing in quite a few first-run theaters here. Pretty incredible.

Excellent. Looking forward to getting to own this one.

Great release date. A good movie to introduce people to during Christmas.

One of my favorite films of the year, please let there be some kind of cool exclusive for it someplace (2-disc steelbook at fye or a best buy exclusive etc). I'm in for this release!

Re: The Hangover --> Dec. 15th!
 
One of the only movies I've seen at the theater this year (which my wife and I enjoyed a lot.) Will definitely be buying the blu-ray.

could of been better. i think i got all caught up in the hype and just wasn't to impressed. i did like when he played blackjack though. His hair and the way he presented himself was funny

Re: The Hangover --> Dec. 15th!
 
I guess I have to get this on Blu-Ray since I know the DVD is going to suck ass.

philip74 09-23-09 08:03 AM

Re: The Hangover --> Dec. 15th!
 
great news mao!
i read last week that the unrated cut which runs 7 minutes longer will also be released in the uk, but exclusively on bluray.
therefore, with warner`s recent history, i feared that they would do the same
here and only release a barebones theatrical cut dvd.
i really give them credit for being smarter about this release! i guess
the movie was so successful that they want to put out a great set.
too bad they didn`t believe in a better terminator salvation dvd release :)
anyhow, hangover se will be a first day purchase for me, its not only a great
movie, but i also want to support this release practice, so that warner
will continue such sets in the future.

I guess you didn't get what they were doing with that scene.

Check out "Rainman."

The $276 million figure quoted is only for the USA, although according to Box Office Mojo, they are currently overestimating by a couple million....

Will for sure pick this up, one of the greatest comedies in a while!

well because it always seems to bring malicious joy to you when dvd buyers are screwed over.
anyhow, even if it is just a digital copy, the set carries the unrated cut and will hopefully have some extras and a sleeve. thats still hundred times better than some other warner releases.
see it positive, at least you won`t read me complaining...

philip74 09-23-09 03:52 PM

Re: The Hangover --> Dec. 15th!
 
just been officially announced by dvdactive and the 2disc dvd also
has several extras:

Re: The Hangover --> Dec. 15th!
 
Good news. Is it just me, or are a lot of summer movies getting released later in the holiday buying season than last year?

I remember Iron Man, a May release coming out at the end of September last year, Indiana Jones, another May release, coming out in mid-October, Hellboy 2 in early November from a July release, Tropic Thunder in November from a mid-August release. The only real late one I can recall is Dark Knight in mid-December.

This year it seems like aside from Transformers 2 (which I really didn't care for), everything is withholding until late November or early December.

Maybe it seems that way to you, but the facts are that Wolverine is already out, Monsters Vs Aliens is being released next week, The Proposal is due October 13th, and Ice Age 3 drops on October 27th....
Up is even being released on November 10th as well, which wouldn't be considered "late November"....

This and Star Trek are the two summer films I'm waiting for most.

Monsters vs. Aliens was not a summer release. It came out late March, which makes the DVD window 6 months.

DVD looks terrible.
NO Commentary = No Sale

dvd luckily has the unrated cut, but even i am slowly getting the picture that
you do ALWAYS seem to find something to be unhappy about.....

You're never happy with anything, are you? It's not like there is some commentary exclusive to the BD version either....Warner is giving you what you ask for and constantly complain about, a 2-disc DVD version at near parity with the BD, and yet you still find some reason to hate it....

Fun flick, but it's not they type of comedy that works well with repeat viewings.

Zen Peckinpah 09-24-09 12:24 PM

This DVD and Blu-ray release is not allowed within 200 feet of a church.

Or a Chuck E. Cheese's.

project86 09-24-09 05:31 PM

Re: The Hangover --> Dec. 15th!
 
I really want to buy this movie but I know it's going to be mass produced and easily available a few months after for super cheap... So I think I'm going to hold off.

This is a terrible release in any format. Im sorry but it looks like no effort was put into this release.

I don't understand what you expect....not every film, no matter how successful or popular, is going to get a release similar to the extended cuts of the Lord Of The Rings films....
I'm also confused how you can demand each release to be overflowing with extras to meet your standards, but yet you also say you own over 1000+ titles....there is no way each and every one of the titles in your catalog is as packed with special features as you now expect every new release to be...this Hangover release looks to contain about an average number of special features, so it has to have more than some of the ones you already own....

Seems like a pretty standard type release to me. Hardly terrible. Not great, but about on par.

Exactly what I was thinking. I'm pretty sure in 2011 when "The Second Hangover" comes out Warner will revisit the film on DVD and Blu, but until then this is still better than most films.

Also, the complete listing of extras isn't out yet (DVDActive ad says "and more!"), and even then, as always, you're making an assumption about how substantial the extras are.

I'm looking for a bonus - like a toy tiger or a Phil Collins CD.

Great movie though.

How about a man purse over the cover of 2-disc DvD? "Classic".

Save Ferris 10-25-09 09:28 AM

Re: The Hangover --> Dec. 15th!
 
This movie in particular would REALLY lend itself to a commentary with actors involved. The commentaries I like most are ones with the comedy cast participating.

MrSmearkase 10-25-09 10:03 AM

Re: The Hangover --> Dec. 15th!
 
/\ I think Todd Phillips mentioned that they, himself along with the cast, had already recorded a commentary on the 'Meet the Filmmakers' podcast.
