If only they'd release it on Blu...

Unless the slipcover has different artwork or is lenticular, glossy, foil, or just looks neat; I could give a flying fuck about the slipcover.

Same here. I always laugh when people talk about how rare the slipcovers are for Crank, Dracula, King Kong, Casino Royale, etc. because I've tossed them all.

I've got both.

Funny thing.. each cardboards cost atleast $20 when sold at greedbay

The BS Dracula slipcover has foil and it's glossy.

I guess you enjoy throwing money away, huh?

I never got a slipcover when I purchased Crank (for eight dollars at Wal-Mart).

Just give me the film in the best PQ/AQ possible. I could give two-shits about how it's packaged (as long as it's in a standard Vortex case, I don't need no BTTF-debacles again).

That's because the slipcover was only released during the first print of Crank. You will not find a Crank slip now at any store.

I do agree with you with the Vortex cases. I wish all blus were housed in Vortex cases. Viva cases are crap. Especially their eco cases

slipcover goes rubbish here too, even the different looking ones (Star Trek 2009, G.I. Joe) gets tossed. I guess I just like the quick access to my disc.

Pretty much interesting lineup of rarity there.

• Akira did not gain attention until majority of the further releases doesnt carry the slipcover/booklet
  
• Hurt Locker was so so hard... its like 1 or 2 steelbook per Bestbuy on its release date
  
• The Disney Bestbuy Steelbooks were not taken seriously when it showed up all the same time back in Dec. last year, until it faded away and ironpacks were the 2nd wave of Disney that showed up. Snow White & Up were popular because both were ransacked by many consumers when it was offered as a pre-order offer.
  
• Zombieland, it was originally bashed by sourgraping consumers because the bonus disc was a DVD.. until it faded out and these sourgrapers turned into drooling consumers demanding were to get the "exclusive" version?

Is Norbit (Eddie Murphy) rare??

Norbit is rare in the sense that very few consumers actually own a copy.

What is special about the Black Dynamite disc listed in the OP?

Some people are selling it really high on Amazon. Between $68 - $112. Kinda crazy if you ask me.

Point Break, Hot Rod and The Bird with the Crystal Plumage are OOP and climbing in $.

I think it's b.s. I bought that movie on Day 1 and have never seen any mention of a different BD from the current release.

Selling and 'sold' is a different story. I could list it for $500, but if it doesn't sell, it's not really selling for $500.

Norbit on eBay has gone for between $8.50 - $27. Not really that valuable.

Hot Rod, with the exception of one going for $60, have all gone for the high $20's as well.

Bird about $20.

As I posted in the Criterion thread, mccarver just listed the Chungking Express BD in his OOP thread, & Amazon doesn't have it in stock.

I think Hot Rod goes for $7 used in every BBV in my area, pretty sure Norbit is there too.

Good call on Blockbuster. I'll have to look for "Hot Rod" there.

I can confirm Hod Rod at BBV as well. Saw it tonight when I picked up a copy of Zodiac DC for $9.99

Hot Rod is 9.99 at bbv, i snagged the only copy at my store.
We also have one rental copy of Zodiac but it;s been rented out for a few days, I think it's gone.

I have this because I pre-ordered it. Didn't know it was rare.

It's not. I'll pay you $5 for it though...
