It hasn't been "officially" announced yet, but I doubt Beetlejuice will be "book" edition. I can't imagine it going well with How the West Was Won, Bonnie and Clyde, Naturla Born Killers...

Beetlejuice also received an Academy Awardฎ for Best Makeup with renowned makeup artist and three-time Oscar-winner Ve Neill, and went on to be ranked on AFI's Top 100 list of Funniest American Movies. Beetlejuice 20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition which streets in time for back-to-school shopping and Halloween, will sell for $19.96 SRP and the Blu-ray Hi-Def will be released for $34.99 SRP. |
Ugh, so we have to pay extra for a throwaway soundtrack (and just a sampler at that) and a booklet? Just give me the damn movie in hi-def.

Booklet and CD? Ugh. |

Here's an idea for someone to put together a new poll: "How surprised are you that, since HD DVD folded, Blu-ray prices have substantially risen? -Very -Moderately -Not at all -Holy crap!! My world has been turned upside down!! -Stop spreading your FUD, Pinko -- Blu-ray prices have actually come DOWN; the perceived price increases are all because the American Dollar has been devalued by Wal Mart's $5 DVD bargain bins!!!" |

really ? ;) |
10 years and the best Warner can come up with is 3 22 cartoons and a slipcover? No sale for me. Then to charge $5 more for a soundtrack sampler and a booklet? That's my beef. Why no deleted scenes? Commentary? Features?

I totally agree -- it's pretty lame for a "deluxe edition". |
What exactly is with the soundtrack sampler? Maybe that would work with a new theatrical release, but I bought the CD soundtrack 20 years ago.
Anyway, back to announcements: Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay (unrated) http://www.dvdactive.com/news/releas...anamo-bay.html |

FYI, Amazon is currently listing the Cloverfield Blu-Ray at 50% off list - 19.98. A pleasant surprise.

Blu-ray.com mentions Beetlejuice having TrueHD audio. Hopefully at that point, we won't get anymore WB releases with Dolby Digital 5.1 sound. :rolleyes:
|
Sweet. BTW I enjoyed seeing your name on a promo for a Sony BD promo.
|
Harold and Kumar will be a 2-disc BD. That's the last film I would have thought of to get the 2-disc treatment.
