Sorry, should have specified. There's a little code inside the DVD/Bluray you can register with Disney Movie Rewards for their rewards program and on Marvel.com for this Poster offer.

Shit, probably US only then.
So a couple of us are trying to work on a dancing Groot project, which involves Groot as a pot plant that will dance and synchronize with whatever music we send to it. Right now we're still trying to figure out the details on how to get a servo motor to sync with the musical beats in a song. Planning on programming on a raspberry pi. Eventually, we want to have it set up so that we can connect to it through bluetooth, and pass music through that way. Anyway, in order to get Groot to rock from side to side, we made him out of felt. Here's the first prototype:
There exists a robot created with a similar idea called Keepon.
May want to see how this was done it could help with your project.

Thats how I understood it. He's the one of the most, if not the most powerful entity in the universe. And one of the most intelligent. And he knows it. And everyone else knows it. He doesn't need to sound threatening for them to know he's not the type to make empty threats.

Just saw this. Thought it was pretty corny and the story was pretty generic. But from a child's perspective this would be insanely awesome because the visuals are fun.

Really enjoyed this movie, although it would have been a little better to have a higher age rating. Still, there were some funny moments and I'm a sucker for sci-fi.
Maybe, I'm not in the US so I'm screwed for the time being
I say "time being" because the TWS steelbook is back in stock, so there is hope!
That's what I was going to do, stupid BestBuy
Oh well, FWIW, the movie is currently 9.96 on Vudu with all bonus features (Vudu is digital only for those that don't know), so I'll probably buy that one to tide me over until the steelbook is restocked ;_;
I'm gonna make liberal use of this.

Happy Birthday to me! Just got home from picking up my copy of the 3D Blu-ray version.
It was supposed to release in Australia on the 3rd, but it arrived early on my Birthday!

I don't go to lunch until 12 and I imagine they won't have one by the time I get there.

Man, this better sweep the special effects and makeup categories at the Oscars.
I'm still holding hope that they restock and start selling them online again ;_;
Also, when any of you sons of schlags get it, post some pics
I've got the Blu-Ray going now with James Gunn's commentary-great stuff!
* It was Kevin Fiege's idea to move the Marvel logo to after Peter is abducted.
* The "map" device that Star-Lord uses on Morag was given to him by The Broker
* The dog that shows on the holographic map is James Gunn's dog.
* The area on Morag is usually covered in seawater-but once every 300 years, the water recedes-which is why Star-Lord goes there at that time.
* The outdoor scene where Gamora and Star-Lord start fighting after they meet for the first time-it was so hot, over 100 degrees in England. James says that on the 3rd day of filming, the extras were all in their area out of costume in their underwear-because it was so hot being in the costumes was unbearable.
* In Thanos's scene, when James Gunn mentions that this is his introduction he kind of jokes that he had to "Shoehorn" Thanos into the story.

nice embossing on the front and weathering looks nice all around. Shame Disney keeps cheaping out on disc art though, they love boring blue or gray discs.
Can someone edit that to say MAHVEL?
Thanks, the inside matches as an opened player even (was expecting some team art or something).some pics.

Damn it's looking sexy as fuck ;_;
EDIT: also just realized that this one has the movie logo on the case, IIRC the UK one doesn't.

I think Dawn of the Planet of the Apes should get Special Effects Oscars instead.

Oh yeah, totally forgot about Dawn as I haven't seen it yet. It'll be a tough call, but Dawn will most likely get it.
Holy shit at the end.... Dropping bombs.

Rise of the Apes didn't win back in it's year. Hugo won. So you never know.

Lol at the credits saying no raccoons or tree creatures were harmed while making the film.
Fuck this. Went to the marvel website to put in my code for my digital movie. I put it in, and it sent me to a part where I had to sign in. I signed in, then it told me to upgrade my account. I did that and then it sent me back to the code screen, went to put in my code again, and now its saying its invalid and nothing unlocked on my account.

Someone just made a 1980s GOTG poster:
Awesome. Should be Roddy McDowall as The Collector, though

That would have been amazing. Including the obligatory licenced games on 8-bit and 16-bit consoles.
Hey, I just ordered my blu ray copy with a free digital version. paid for overnight shipping.

I will send you the code as soon as I possibly can.
