Re: Where The Wild Things Are - 3/2/10
I'm surprised they are taking so long to release this. Especially considering the movie sat on the shelf for a while.

Including the DVD is great. The best option, though, would be to encode the digital copy on a SD-DVD, so that it serves a dual purpose. The fact that they use separate discs seems incredibly wasteful.

Definitely going to check this out. Didn't get a chance to see it in theaters.

Re: Where The Wild Things Are - 3/2/10
Day one purchase. Loved the film and really wanted to see it again in the theatres, but never got the chance. Can't wait to see it on blu.

Over time, they might even help increase format adoption, and isn't that a good thing in the long run? I mean, look, The Final Destination just came out last week, and the BD combo pack was only $19.99, a mere $3 more than the DVD by itself...also, look how cheap some people have been able to pick up Disney combo packs with their coupons and sale prices....unless the combo packs start spiking new release titles back into the $29.99 and over price points, I'm fine with them.... |

If the story is in your heart it doesn't matter how many millions of dollars it made in the theater. I'll get it and Mr. Fox on release day.

Completely disagree....if it doesn't affect the final price consumers pay, how does it hurt anyone?

Re: Where The Wild Things Are - 3/2/10
Like the cover but walked out of the theatre after 3/4 of the movie. Wish it could have been better. Maybe I wasnt in the mood to see it but the kid in the film was a pain to watch on screen.

Re: Where The Wild Things Are - 3/2/10
I wish they would have released a special edition that included that cut. I'm dying to know what was in it, since the final cut had some pretty dark things in it as well.

Re: Where The Wild Things Are - 3/2/10
We'll more about this if Jonze gives us a commentary. Which I hope he would.

The Blu-ray version will add 4 more (including Maurice and Spike, Max and Spike, The Records Family and Carter Burwell), along with the HBO First Look special and the all-new Higgelty Piggelty Pop! short featuring the voices of Meryl Streep and Forest Whitaker.

Jonze is a gifted visual storyteller. Unfortunately, he does not have the gift of gab in the slightest and sounds borderline retarded in interviews - I can't imagine him doing a commentary for two hours.

Re: Where The Wild Things Are - 3/2/10
This is a must have for me as it was the best flim of 2009 in my book MAGIC! from start to FIN.

Re: Where The Wild Things Are - 3/2/10
Way to go, Warner Brothers. By including the short Higglety Pigglety Pop only on the Blu Ray, in order to try and force people who have no interest in the format to upgrade anyway, you have killed any chance of my buying the standard dvd either. Brilliant.

I'd advise you to take this complaint to the DVD Forum, as I am sure you'll find more agreement there in one of their multitude of pre-existing threads on this worn out subject than you will here.... |
