Yeah, I'm generally not liking the path this thread is taking. Ease up on all that, guys.

Sorry, my fault I should have used a smiley face emoticon up there in response to droid but wasn't sure if that would make it come off as sarcastic in it's self.

I may not have the evidence on my side but I feel it in my bones that there will be a BR double dip on this title.

Another reason is that the format is relatively young (if 4 can be considered young in a format). And this disc is at already such a good price that it can't be long until it is marked down. Once it hits the $9.99-$7.99 price point I would think the studios would be compelled to release another version in a bigger box as their overall goal is profit maximization.

I am thinking like the Showgirl box set. Perhaps they would include a little Stuntman Mike car?

Hey Adam, I have a small request -- and I imagine some of the other folks might as well. Would you mind posting a photo or two of the packaging?

I would assume we might see a Grindhouse Collector's Set in the future but it will probally just be a overpriced box with the same BR's of Grindhouse and both single releases of Planet Terror & Death Proof with some extra stuff like a CD soundtrack, that book they made when the movie came out and maybe a Death Proof screenplay and some toys or posters or something idiotic like that

The lack of both versions of the film was my major point of contention with this release.

The front cover looks like this:

...with a flap that opens up like a book to reveal the "back to back" bit up top.

The lower-middle is the insert card: the Death Proof one-sheet on one side and Planet Terror on the other. It's a pretty heavy cardstock. In between the two posters is a list of the extras.

Sterlingben: It ain't happening. Just let it go. RR doesn't do this shit a lot on the same format.

If the movie had been successful, I could see this. But it wasn't in theaters and I doubt it's a major seller on Blu-Ray/DVD.

Japan got it and I doubt it was more popular over there than here, which means there's hope.

There are a few on Blu. Off the top of my head I can think of Robin Hood and Sleeping Beauty.

Ugh they haven't shipped mine yet either and I haven't gotten an email. My copy of The Exorcist shipped yesterday already though.
