I agree. The legend of the Star Wars Holiday Special is more interesting than the actual special itself, and keeping it unreleased only fuels the mystique about it. Then those who do stumble across a copy and view it, discover something so horrible(and boring), it defies description and was best left unseen.

Re: E.T. coming Fall 2012
The 2002 edition is terrible but it's a significant chapter in the history of the movie and it should be included. Even the biggest ET '02 hater would also agree that the alternate audio track of the live score makes it worth including.
Showing the inside of the mother ship in the Special Edition of Close Encounters is a greater sin than anything in ET '02 (and I know Columbia would only give Spielberg the money for new scenes if that was one of them) but I'm glad I have the option of watching it even if it's little more than a curiosity sandwiched between two valid presentations of the film. Hopefully some retailer will get it as a bonus disc or something. If not I still have that fancy DVD box set that I was gonna keep anyway. Ultimately having it in SD only is far from a crisis. But having it in HD with lossless audio on the live score would be better. |
Re: E.T. coming Fall 2012
Even though I don't give a shit about the 02 version, but I think I'll keep my DVD as well as buy the BD. Just so I have the reference to the horrid changes.

That was my guess since it only listed the running time of the 2002 version and no mention on the package of containing the original theatrical version. And that's the main version I see in stores currently.

Re: E.T. coming Fall 2012
Keeping my giftset DVD but I can't wait to get my hands on ET in HD. Sounds like it will be a great release.

Re: E.T. coming Fall 2012
That space ship is pretty cool but not worth the price IMO. I would have prefered a walkie talkie special edition packaging.
|
Re: E.T. coming Fall 2012
Yeah...that spaceship looks like shit.
|
Re: E.T. coming Fall 2012
Another vote for the spaceship looking like a piece of junk...but I DO hope we get a digibook - maybe another BB exclusive? (Like Jaws)
|
Re: E.T. coming Fall 2012
Yeah the space ship looks pretty meh to me. Wouldn't pay the extra price or have it take up the extra shelf space personally. I'm still holding out on a digibook too as it's easily the best gimmick packaging if you ask me. Not a really big fan of steelbooks personally.

Re: E.T. coming Fall 2012
A steelbook or special case that would be really cool would be a Speak And Spell case. That toy was a pretty big part of the movie, after all. Or Maybe a box that looks like a package of Reese's Pieces...

A Target employee found it in their system and it said "online only", which was the same situation with the Cowboys & Aliens steelbook.
