re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
I just want a something about the size of the last Alien set..which was awesome cuz it had everything you could want but....I hated that I had to fold it out alot to get to a disc on the ends. Just put them in Blu cases put them in a nice box and I'm good.

It's Fox. It'll probably come in a cheap paper folder with little pieces of foam that hold the discs in place.

re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
Yeah, I'm not a fan of those plastic holders (digipaks I think they're called?) sometimes they have a very strong hold on those discs (you know the ones that have that Push/press plastic clip thing?) and I just fear of accidentally touching the bottom of the discs. I don't remember the Quadrilogy having it but...it's just a fear with a box set.

re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
did not know about that. really?
|
re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
Yeah, it's part of the BD spec that the discs are required to have a scratch-resistant coating.
I haven't put it to the test yet, though. I also haven't seen any scratched BDs, either... |
re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
I will admit. I have had some BDs that were "scratched" nothing hardcore or damaging to the play of the Blu but I returned it to amazon either way.

re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
I read that apparently they will stand up to steel wool. Back on the topic of Alien, I think the first two would be good candidates for a digibook release.

re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
Will the Quadrilogy set come to blu-ray any time soon ?
|
re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
......this is what we're talking about somewhat. It's a possibility.

(Yeah, it's still 4 movies.) |
re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
I almost bought the "Quadrilogy" pack on DVD for less than $20 a few years ago, but decided not to because I knew I'd have to end up getting it on Blu-ray eventually, so I didn't even bother with the DVD. I do have the old Legacy boxed set I got back in '99 (and the mail-in disc) to tide me over.
I also took a similar approach to The Matrix boxed set when I could have gotten it for thirty. |
Confirmed: 'Alien Anthology' Blu-ray Box Set this Christmas!!
Confirmed: 'Alien Anthology' Blu-ray Box Set this Christmas!!
From Bloody-Disgusting.com: A reader over on the High Def Digest forums just posted an image from a home video magazine that has me tearing up with joy. Arriving this Christmas from Fox Home Entertainment is the highly anticipated Alien Anthology on Blu-ray. Fox is known for f*cking their consumers with horrid Blu-ray transfers (check out Predator and Commando for proof), but word has it Ridley Scott and co. worked on this with a watchful eye. It'll carry 7.1 surround, Trivia Tracks, loads of BD-Live content and more. We've heard rumors of new commentary tracks and even featurettes. Time will tell. My only question is, when can I pre-order this and how much will it be? |
re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
This will find it's way into a lot of stockings.
|
re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
Loads of BD-Live content? Ugh...
|
re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
I don't mind BDL content if it's tied to things like fan communities or online games that require an internet connection, but I hate it when they put things on BDL that should be on the discs themselves like featurettes and commentaries.

re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
I agree. I shouldn't have to have an internet capable player to access features that are commonplace on normal dvds. Commentaries and the like should be standard.

re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
I'll definitely get this, but not until the price drops to a reasonable level (around $50), having bought the Quadrilogy on DVD for $100 when it first came out.
|
re: Alien Anthology - Oct. 26th
I'm normally patient and wait for price drops/coupons, but I imagine I'll be buying this release week. Can't wait to watch Alien in HD. Hopefully I'll have my larger screen by then.
