Sounds like the steelbook isn't a Target exclusive. I enjoyed the movie, I'll pick this up.

Regular 2D for me.

I'm hoping for a sweet collector's set or store exclusives. Picking this one up asap.

I'll probably buy every exclusive version of this movie.

I probably won't go that far. I'll wait and see what the exclusives are before I fully commit to my statement.

Knowing WB lately... These will most likely be short features. *sigh*

With the current state of the physical media market, it seems like the old days of abundant extras are the exception rather than the rule.

Declassified - Discover explosive new evidence not contained in the film that unravels the massive cover-up to keep... oh forget it.

Just give me a high-quality transfer.

Jesus, that lizard is going to bankrupt me in September, between this and Godzilla 2000 and the double feature of Giant Monsters All-Out Attack and Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla, the latter three of which I already own on DVD but will compulsively need to upgrade. And of course his girlfriend has to kick me when I'm down as well, with the Mothra triple feature.

islandclaws 07-22-14 01:29 PM

^ Don't fret, I'll keep you company in that boat.

Special features for the new film look pretty damn weak, though. I highly suspect an other edition will come down the pipe later.

OldBoy 07-22-14 01:33 PM

the LE SteelBook™ is sure sweet, but i'll stick with regular 3D...at least that is what i will keep telling myself!

Solid Snake 07-22-14 01:37 PM

I'll wait for this to go down in price.

I'll wait until it's $8 on Black Friday.

Well Onkyo is already releasing an Atmos ready receivers so your wish might not be far off (albeit in the form of a double dip). ;)

They have more info here.

Supermallet 07-22-14 11:03 PM

Re: Godzilla - 9/16/14
 
I liked it but not enough to own it. Even without Atmos though, the sound on this is going to rock your system.

yeah - I'm getting quite a few of Facebook notices regarding Onkyo's new receiver.

wonder when the software is going to get released.

It seems they ditched Audyssey however and are using some in-house calibration system that may or may not actually do any room mode correction (Onkyo's own wording is confusing at best).

Target will also have an exclusive featurette "Godzilla: Rebirth of an Icon" and different artwork. They have a scan of the back cover and the film will have 7.1 audio.

I wonder if this exclusive will also be available for the 3D combo pack.

All of their exclusives thus far have.

Solid Snake 08-04-14 02:10 PM

Re: Godzilla - 9/16/14
 
I wonder how long that feature is. Doubt it'll be worth it. But I'm always interested in more features especially since WB has gotten cheap on us in that front.

hanshotfirst1138 08-04-14 02:37 PM

Just great. More retailer exclusives :mad:. Ah well, I'm the sucker who keeps picking them up.

The artwork is ugly

Why So Blu? 08-04-14 05:17 PM

Re: Godzilla - 9/16/14
 
Hopefully it will have cool supplemnets like the featurette in Monsters where they talk to Gareth in detail about making the film. That was some fascinating shit and hope that Godzilla has one too.

i gotta check that feature out. saw the movie, then got the Blu-ray, but haven't gotten around to watching yet again. look forward to it though...

islandclaws 08-04-14 10:37 PM

Re: Godzilla - 9/16/14
 
I want all the features I can get (and I strongly suspect a double dip is coming), so Target here I come.

milo bloom 08-05-14 11:00 AM

Re: Godzilla - 9/16/14
 
Not liking this trend at all, this type of release deserves one, loaded release for the extras and if you want exclusives, keep it to cover art or figurines and such.

Based on what I have seen, and purchased, recently Target seems to focus on bonus content. I would certainly pefer things as you describe, but I would rather get some of this extra material rather than not have it. And I don't want Best Buy to get it. Not love lost from me for Best Buy these days.

Solid review (except on the extras :()

http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Godzil.../78769/#Review

Next week!

mattysemo247 09-11-14 08:27 AM

Re: Godzilla - 9/16/14
 
And some pricing updates:

Target exclusive will be $22.99 (bonuses look to be on disc). Best Buy will have the 2D version for $9.99 or the 3D version for $14.99 if you buy any TV title $14.99 and up (same as the last couple big release promotions)

Still trying to decide between keeping my Amazon Metalpak order or grabbing Sleepy Hollow S1 for $24.99 and one of the Godzilla versions at Best Buy.

milo bloom 09-11-14 09:06 AM

Re: Godzilla - 9/16/14
 
To be honest, it's not like there's a history of good extras on Godzilla Blu/DVDs. The Criterion release is (unfortunately) the outlier.

I'll probably just grab the Target one since I have a Redcard and will get 5% off.



(And why is the Chrome spellchecker underlining "outlier" ?)
