X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
Per HD ROOM:
Fox has announced via Crave that Matthew Vaughn's critically praised X-Men: First Class starring James McAvoy, Kevin Bacon, Rose Byrne and Jennifer Lawrence is headed to Blu-ray and DVD on September 9. The announcement comes just a couple days before Comic-Con kicks off and the timing is no coincidence. Fox will be heavily promoting the X-Men: First Class home video release at the Con by offering the first 1,000 fans who pre-order the Blu-ray or DVD version a free shirt that either features Charles Xavier (McAvoy) or Erik Lehnsherr (Fassbender). What shirt you get will be determined by which cover you choose. Fox is creating two limited edition covers; one featuring Charles and the good mutants, and the other with Erik and the not-so-good ones. Crave's article neglects to spell out what makes them limited so we'll have to wait until Fox chimes in for more clarification on that front. What they do tell us is that the Blu-ray edition will include "hours" of supplements such as ten X-Men Digital comics including a never-before-seen backstory comic, and a Cerebro Mutant Tracker interactive video database spanning all the X-Men films. Again, a complete list of extras will have to wait until Fox's press release goes out. http://i860.photobucket.com/albums/a...irst-class.jpg Larger artwork: Spoiler:

Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
Really enjoyed this one and will be buying day 1. Definitely getting the Magneto cover.
|
Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
I wonder if Amazon will let you pick
|
Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
The Magneto cover sucks less (mainly cos of the shot of Magneto himself). But what's the point of this? Do they really expect people to buy two copies in order to get both covers? A Star Trek-style slipcover would have seemed more logical.

I like both covers fine. Mags is hte better one though. Still amazed they chose another pic of Xavier putting his fingers on his temple again...one thing they could've toned a bit in terms of usage. |

Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
Loved this in theaters. Magneto cover for sure. Fassbender owned in this flick.

Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
Hopefully that featurette is at least an hour if it's broken up into 8 parts.
|
Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
Definitely planning on picking this up.

Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
Definitely picking this up.
Been missing a lot of new films in theaters lately, so I'm glad the BDs are coming out so quick :) |

X-men, along with Bridesmaids, are the only 2 Summer movies I've really liked. So I'm glad one of them is coming out to BD so quickly. Barely 3 months after its theatrical debut.

Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
I skipped X3 and Wolverine based on the reviews, but I'm thinking I might finally be able to own another Xmen movie with this one.

Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
This is my favorite movie of the year so far. Loved the scene where Magneto goes to the bar. It was one of the best action sequences I've seen in a while.
They should make an entire movie of him hunting down Nazis. |
Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
Non-slipcover artwork added to OP.

Sin City had various covers. Doesn't really matter in teh end...same product. I don't know about various covers (you'd have to ask xage about...that) getting people to get the movie but...most people get one. I'd get teh Magneto one...
I like both covers fine. Mags is hte better one though. Still amazed they chose another pic of Xavier putting his fingers on his temple again...one thing they could've toned a bit in terms of usage. |

Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
Boba Fett may be referring to Angel, a less popular character than Magneto.
|
Re: X-Men: First Class - 9/9/11
I hope telecinists fix the out of focus picture quality that were very evident in the digital projection theatrical presentation.

Was at Comic-Con, preordered, got the shirts -- had hands on the case. it is *definitely* two-sided, no need to buy two. Charles on one side, Mags the other.

Could just be a promo for the show. Unless there is a paper thing attached to the back (of one side?), most consumers won't be able to read the specs/special features etc.

I don't know what you mean. If you mean his helmet, that's been Magneto's helmet since X-Men #1 back in 1963, on the cover, no less.
