Horrible Bosses "Totally Inappropriate Edition" - 10/11/11

Per blu-ray.com:

New Line and Warner Home Entertainment will release Horrible Bosses on Blu-ray this fall. The comedy stars Jason Bateman (Juno), Charlie Day (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia), and Jason Sudekis (Going the Distance) as three best friends who conspire to murder their domineering bosses (Jennifer Aniston - Office Space, Kevin Spacey - The Negotiator, and Colin Farrell - In Bruges).

New Line's "Totally Inappropriate Edition" offers two versions of Horrible Bosses - the 98-minute-long theatrical cut and a new 106-minute-long extended version. Both are presented in the film's original aspect ratio of 2.39:1 with DTS-HD Master Audio sound. This Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy combo pack also contains a number of bonus materials, such as:
  • My Least Favorite Career featurette
  • Surviving A Horrible Boss featurette
  • Being Mean Is So Much Fun featurette
  • Deleted scenes
  • Making of the Horrible Bosses soundtrack

In addition, the digital copy included marks one of New Line and Warner's first uses of the UltraViolet technology, a cloud-based streaming service.

...and no mention of UV on the cover. Still "Digital Copy".

I'm sure they'll slap a UV sticker on the front. The back cover calls it a UV Digital Copy and mentions being able to stream it via Flixster.

Also, the extended cut is only on the BD.

I saw it in the theatre, I liked it. I'd pick up the bluray if the price is right. ( $20 or under )

I will probably end up blind-buying this if I can find the combo pack sub $20

Not sure what this means. Does this mean I won't be able to download it via iTunes, like the other digital copies I have?

Definite buy. Enjoyed the movie and the extras sound decent.

Instead of "totally inappropriate edition" it should be called "can you see my pussy edition".

Not via iTunes. I haven't tried it out, but it's the whole trendy cloud thing. You create an account or something once, and you can view it on any device imaginable. The flyer tucked inside said something about downloading, but that seems to go against everything I've read.

Re: Horrible Bosses "Totally Inappropriate Edition" - 10/11/11

Fuck UltraViolet. Right in the ass.

Here's the current problem with streaming from the cloud with UltraViolet. Unlike say an iTunes digital copy where you can slap it on your iPod, iPad or iPhone and watch wherever and whenever; you need to have a connection to the internet. Unless you're connected to WiFi at a Starbucks or airport or wherever; you're boned. Most who have smartphones who would use these digital copies don't have unlimited data packages. On top of that, most cities don't have fast cellular data connections. I don't watch digital copies at home because I have the Blu-ray or DVD which provide higher quality. I watch the digital copy when I'm out and about, like on an airplane where there is usually no FREE internet. Or at work on a break. Or whatever.

I'm all for cloud storage, but a digital copy should be its own entity that lives and breathes on your media device. It should not be streaming.

Exactly. It's Streaming only. Gonna be a pain for me to sell these now which means I am less likely to buy Blu-rays (I sell off the DVD and DCs to subsidize the price).

Re: Horrible Bosses "Totally Inappropriate Edition" - 10/11/11

I refuse to purchase any combo pack that uses UV digital copies. I want versions that I can import into iTunes. This is why I went with the single disc edition of this movie.

Warner is on board as-is Sony. All studios except Disney.

Went ahead and started a UV thread. I'm curious to see if this will really work. It does look like you can download for offline use. So it looks like you do not need an internet connection to have this work. Interesting, it does say we can download HD copies as well.

I had this at the top of my Blockbuster queue today and expected it to be shipped out, but the availability is "on order". I don't think I've ever seen that listed for a new release.

Me too. I had this and Tree of Life on top and they skipped right by both and went about thirty spots down and shipped Hobo with a shot gun.

I had Hanna as the only other title in my queue. Of course, I get home and check my acct. and they now show Horrible Bosses as available, and Hanna as "processing". I guess I'll just use a credit and stream it from Amazon.

UV content will be streaming (PC/Mac and mobile device) and download (PC/Mac only) out of the gates but will be available later for mobile downloads as well. When mobile downloads are available, the same content that did not initially have mobile download will be enabled with that option.

It's just a piece of paper. No disc at all for the UV.
