Were you able to tell they were damaged by shaking the Trilogy case? I shook mine in the store (and again when I got home) and didn't hear anything loose ... just want to make sure before I actually open the thing ...

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

I saw an entire section of movies at Best Buy that had movie cash. Is it possible to just buy one of those. Take it home. Peel of the sticker and return the movie at a later date/different store?

Do you think they would be on the lookout for this?

Oh and P.S.... You can pick up Robots for 4.99 and get a Coupon towards the wolverine movie in theaters. Just a little FYI for people to know.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

Picked up the trilogy at Costco today. $49.99 with movie cash.

FYI, the back of my original release X3 The Last Stand reads AVC @ 18 mbps. The new version from my box set reads AVC @ 19.5 mbps. I wonder if it looks better?

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

Those are just averages, as bitrates rise and drop to accommodate what is happening on screen. I never saw the original disc but I doubt the new one looks drastically different.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

The original release was on a single layer BD-25 disc, while the new release uses a dual layer BD-50 disc....so this new encode is given more "room to breathe" as they say....
According to all the reviews I have seen, there is a very slight improvement in the picture quality, but it isn't a dramatic difference as both are sourced from the same HD master....

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

of course it is possible

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

Its no assumption at all,and its been that way for a while now.
a family member works for AMC corperate in the marketing and booking dept.,(hence my i have not had to pay for any movie in many years post a few posts back) and they arent the only theatre chain not to accept them for the reason of having issues with being reimbursed by that company Pacific theatres, also does not accept movie cash, or emoviecash for that matter. along with a few others.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

I know. It was a sad attempt at humor.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

Hence why I still have my day job!

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

So no one is pissed about the gimped extra features?
There is no pip/bonus view/ime on all 3 movies for the american release

The UK release has pip for all 3 movies.

So basically, what we're getting on the extra features blu-ray is identical to the extra feature dvd for x1.5 and x2

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

Not really, especially if the PIP features are just the same behind the scenes info already on there simply spliced into the movie while it's running.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

The set is still excellent though.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

I have not checked yet, but are ALL the deleted scenes present for X3?

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

I'm afraid I can't remember where I read it, but last night I came across a features list for the UK discs, and each movie contained this description

Bonus View (40 minutes)

Not a lot there for a PIP track if that is accurate.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

Anyone else confirm no movie cash with set from Amazon? I hope I'm not the only one.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

I didn't get movie cash with my Amazon order either.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

As I live in the UK the e-Movie cash means nothing to me, so if all you need is the code and nothing else send me a PM if you want my code.

Code now gone.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

I didn't...and of course today there is a promo where you buy the set and get a free ticket. Ugh. Tempted to just swap my copy at Best Buy for a ticket version.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

My Best Buy has restocked the trilogy sets and of course they now all have the movie money sticker on them. :mad:

I knew I should not have opened mine yet.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

SERIOUSLY? The sets now, all of a freakin sudden have movie stickers on them!?!

Well, luckily I didn't open my dvd set. I'll be taking this back tonight and making an exchange...

I can just dropkick best buy... I swear!

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

Yup! They had at least 8-9 sets on the shelf, all had the sticker but one.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

I figured they might get sets in with the movie sticker so I didn't open mine. I bought it on Tues to lock in the price this week. I'll check my BB and if they have sticker sets, I'll make an exchange. Thanks for the heads up.

Re: X-Men Trilogy (9 Disc Set) --------> April, 21st 2009
 

My brother bought a second one today and will take his earlier set back on today's receipt.
