Speaking of which, did the American copies come with Ultraviolet codes, or just iTunes?

Here in Canada, I only had the option for iTunes (which I don't use).

E Unit

US has both Ultraviolet and iTunes. I won't insult you and ask if you flipped your iTunes insert over to check. I thought I only had iTunes until I did just that.

Dan

Yeah, I checked the back of the insert. It only has an ad for the Tarantino XX collection. No UV code.

I think going forward maybe someone should open a Blu ray "Packaging Options" thread. I really don't care for what packaging a movie comes in or if it has scratches, (you guys are loony, I say that in jest) but I understand everyone has their own preferences. Is this thread full of packaging talk because this particular release has many options? Or do guys drive yourselves crazy with every release?

E Unit

Yes.

I'm assuming everyone on Blu-ray.com has had a fuckin' brain aneurysm at this point based upon this release.

While I went for the steelbook for Django Unchained (I love digibooks and steelbooks), the film is what I care about the most. I would've rather had TWC focus more of its energy on providing quality bonus material rather than coming out with 500 different retail exclusives.

And yes, I throw away most slipcovers. Unless it has something unique on it (like most 3D releases), I could care less.

I'm just worried they might try and start some trend by cutting deals with separate retailers and splitting up the extras just like here. All together, the extras are rather nice, and would have been great to have on a second blu. But splitting them up AND putting them on DVD only is just a lousy ass move.

Tarantino

Got the Steelbook. Looks great.

E Unit

But is it chipped??? Please check immediately!

This is an age old "problem". Magazines and comics with "collect all 6" version covers, etc. I can't say I like it, but I usually play ball.

E Unit

Yep, but they all usually had the same content in each of them.

Obi-Wanma

Key word being usually. There have indeed been comics with alternate interior pages, and I hate that shit too.

Mr. Cinema

My copy at Walmart rang up $18.96 this morning. They only had 4 copies out. 2 of my Targets had 0 BD copies out. Probably some in the back, but it looks like this one will be a big seller.

Anyone know what Best Buy's price for this will be next week?

Obi-Wanma

FYI, I also went into Walmart today and it rang up 18.96 (even though it was labeled 22.96 and scanned at 22.96 when I was at the same store on Tuesday). They still had a lot of them in the big display right by the front door. I didn't go look what they had back by electronics.

musick

more than this week but U&S will be running so it will be $5 off next week's price with a trade in of a dvd

best to buy now and adjust later

Larry C.

It depends. Are we talking scratched or chipped cases?

hasslein

Today it's $24.99. Don't know if that price will last all week though.

applesandrice

Cool -- thanks. Glad I waited.

Tarantino

Looks good, although I haven't fine toothed it. If anything comes up, I'll be sure to take pictures, return it, scrutinize the new one, and come back and bitch about it.

JeffTheAlpaca

Close to a 4 hour movie but maybe only 45 minutes of bonus content unless they took out some bonus features for Netflix rentals?

I assumes Tarantino would be big on doing bonus features for his movies?

I don't think Inglorious Bastards had a lot of bonus features either.

^ you must have gotten the Director's cut.
