[Edmond Dantès]

So close now.

[Zabuza]

Favorite movie of all time. Honestly cannot wait.

[XMonkey]

Finalllyyyyyyyy

[RatskyWatsky]

Looks pretty hot, though I would have preferred a more stylized cover.

[Jimothy]

Fucking finally. I've been holding out on seeing it until it came out on Blu.

[Zabuza]

Paging Jett.

[JdFoX187]

Reminds me of the Ben-Hur packaging. Also reminds me I need to buy that. Also, sold.

[hateradio]

The blur on the gun looks so bad, they should have picked a different shot or placed it out of the visible range.

[Dragonzord]

I really like the classy presentation they give to older movies in blu-rays like the Criterion stuff.

I wish they'd do that for kung fu movies.

[Edmond Dantès]

The two disc set is also up on Amazon.fr, confirming the cover.

[Expendable.]

Insta-buy.

[Dragoon En Regalia]

Not Criterion, but it should be damn-good packaging all-together. Consider me excited.

[LiK]

FINALLY

[wenis]

I'll wait till a cheaper edition makes it's way out. I don't need any of that pomp and frill.

It's funny that it's for a BD, yet all the stills on the page are compressed to hell. :D

[Arcteryx]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!

Cannot wait to day1 this.

[Edmond Dantès]

It's going to be fun.

[RustyNails]

T.E. Lawrence: I killed two people. One was... yesterday? He was just a boy and I led him into quicksand. The other was... well, before Aqaba. I had to execute him with my pistol, and there was something about it that I didn't like. General Allenby: That's to be expected. T.E. Lawrence: No, something else. General Allenby: Well, then let it be a lesson. T.E. Lawrence: No... something else. General Allenby: What then? T.E. Lawrence: I enjoyed it.

Day 1.

[Edmond Dantès]

General Allenby: I believe your name will be a household word when you'll have to go to the War Museum to find who Allenby was. You're the most extraordinary man I've ever met! T.E. Lawrence: Leave me alone! General Allenby: What? T.E. Lawrence: Leave me alone! General Allenby: Well, that's a feeble thing to say. T.E. Lawrence: I know I'm not ordinary. General Allenby: That's not what I'm saying... T.E. Lawrence: All right! I'm extraordinary! What of it?

He was indeed.

[lacinius]

So epic... day 1.

[Edmond Dantès]

The best of them won't come for money.. they'll come for me.

[StriKeVillain]

Fucking finally. I've been holding out on seeing it until it came out on Blu.

Same here, pretty excited to pick this up.

[Nemo]

Same, haven't seen it yet either. If this is less than 50 bucks I'll get it otherwise the regular ed will do

[Dissonance]

I've never seen it because I've been waiting for this version.

Should I be hyped? :P

[Edmond Dantès]

I've never seen it because I've been waiting for this version. Should I be hyped? :P

One of the greats, if not the greatest film of all time with an iconic score and a wonderful performance by the great Peter O'Toole. Oh yes, you should be excited and the cinematography is a sight to behold.

[TheKaeptain]

Is Target going their own special two disc package like they usually have for collectors sets?

[WonkersTHEWatilla]

Will not fit on my movie shelf. It will have a shelf all to itself, then.

[Barkley's Justice]

[xbhaskarx]

Pro: Blu-ray
Con: I prefer my DVD box, it's like beige fabric or something, looks like a book.

Indeed. I've heard so much about it that I'm really, really, excited. I'm going to have to find some space to put it, though. Been holding off on getting the Ben-Hur box for this reason.

[FairyD]

I'm starting to become a collector of movies lately. I finally picked up Barry Lyndon yesterday and saw that and now I'm in the mode for another long movie.

I may get this day one.

[Jason Raize '75 - '04]

Release date?

[Edmond Dantès]

Release date?

September 17th at the moment. Could change.

[Tim the Wiz]

Edit: September? Awesome.

[Stinkles]

Total Dune ripoff.

[Schweini]

Total Dune ripoff.

This should be a bannable offense

[SteveWinwood]

This should be a bannable offense

Why? Tis' true.

[Edmond Dantès]

Why? Tis' true.

So, Dune pre-dates WW1 and the exploits of the above...right.

[SteveWinwood]

Dune transends time.

[jett]

This shall be mine.

Total Dune ripoff.

I will destroy you.

[Man]

I have rewatched this so many times since I first saw it a couple of years ago.
One of those oldies that are truly timeless and don't feel outdated.

[Darkkn]

Can one enjoy this film today for the first time?

I've been interested in seeing this, but always put it off because it's an ye olde movie that i've imagined is only great if you watched it back in the day or are a film critic.

[speedpop]

I've only ever watched it twice, on DVD and catching the last half of it when it was on HDTV.

Looking forward to snatching this bad boy up finally.

You could easily watch it today for the first time. It's a timeless work of art.

[PhoncipleBone]

Pro: Blu-ray Con: I prefer my DVD box, it's like beige fabric or something, looks like a book.

That was the best packaging, but I sold it when the Superbit version came out with the new, corrected master.

Cannot wait for the Blu though. I hope there is a theatrical run.

What are you crazy? This movie is timeless. First time I watched it was a hideous pan and scan version on regular broadcast television. It still immediately became one of my favorites. I can't recommend it enough.

wow.

[Reg]

This movie is great. Possibly even goat.

[sharbhund]

This and Casablanca are my favorite movies of all time. I assume 2 of the discs in the picture will be the movie, and 1 disc will be special features. Is there any word if they're just going to recycle the special features from the old DVD set, or will there be new content?

Seems the movie will come on a single disc, which is a mistake for a nearly four hour flick...

- BD disc 1: the movie - BD Disc 2: More than 1 hour Making of + Interview unprecedented Peter O'Toole - Photo book with storage for an exclusive third disc: a DVD composed entirely of exclusive footage (128 min) - Map travel to Lawrence on parchment paper - Book of original posters
