2008 DVD Releases Thread

I didn't see it in the ad but my Best Buy had an exclusive lithograph with purchase of the special edition of the film.  Nice looking.  I didn't pick it up, though.

Iron Man became my first Blu-Ray Disc yesterday.  Now I just need to pick up a player so I can watch it.

[Brian]

I plan on grabbing Iron Man today as well.  I usually pick up our DVDs at Target, but I think I'd rather have a "normal" case instead of the spiffy Mark III mask that Target has for the deluxe version, so I may hit Best Buy.

[BrentS]

So does when do you think we'll see the first Indy "4 Pack" on Blu-Ray?  I'm thinking of waiting until that unannounced date to pick up Indy 4 in any format.

Next year is the 20th anniversary of Last Crusade, so maybe next summer or Xmas?

Picked up the 2-disc Iron Man at WM yesterday, came with a free comic. Also picked up the 3 disc Forgetting Sarah Marshall set.

I bought the Iron Man set today.  I bought it at Target.

That doesn't strike me as a movie worth lavishing 3 discs on--with what did they fill the other 2?--but I guess every movie gets a Super Special Edition these days.

No idea (haven't had time to watch it yet) but apparently one of the discs has an unrated cut of the film on it, and I think the 3rd disc is a Digital Copy. I'll report back this weekend after I've opened it.

Just curious, but do we know of all the store exclusives that will be offered with the Indy DVD next Tuesday?  I remember seeing the Crystal Skull pack (Best Buy?), but I couldn't remember if there were any others or not.  It seems like there are always several with movies like this.

[DSJ™]

Yes, Best Buy in the US has the Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull: Ltd Ed Gift Set. Lucky bastards! 

Up here in Canada, our Best Buy has a comic & Futureshop has the steelbook... whoopdidoo! 

[Brian]

Yeah, I thought maybe the Targets and Wal-Marts would have their own exclusives as well (as they usually do with Star Wars, comic movies, etc.), but I hadn't heard anything so far.  We usually just grab our DVDs at Target, since they are usually the cheapest by far around here (at least that is reasonably close) - but I just thought I'd double check any exclusives before we trekked out next week.

[Darth_Anton]

I'm not even sure I'm going to pick the movie up.

[Matt_Fury]

Do people really want all that extra stuff?  All I ever really want is the movie.

Yeah, I feel pretty much the same way, but if its a "freebie" I'll usually go with the one I like the most, if it isn't too much of a pain to get.
