SONY.

It's the least intrusive of the ads. No wonder, I forgot about it.

As for the anti-piracy ad. My comment was sort of tongue-in-cheek, I don't like these ads more than that. Although that Anti-piracy ad did had me scrambling for the speaker volume control on more than one occasion...

upon browsing through the single disc discussion, i immediately opened my copy and to my disappointment i saw those commercials in a 599 php. dvd!

599 tapos tagalog pa mga commercials (being played in 5.1 HT) ! hahahahahhaahahah bwiset! :'(

isang masasabi ko! nakakabwiset ! kaya pinapatulan ko R1 kahit mahal because of instances like these, sana may kita kayo sa regular customers...ngyun nagiging irregular customers na!

hope they dont do this with transformers !!!

I hope Magna is reading this thread. And I hope the bigwigs here can talk to Magna and relay our disgust over this new emerging practice to put ads in their single disc releases

The least they could do is enable viewers to skip or fast forward those commercials, just like the trailers. Either that or they can print a warning label on the DVD covers like this:

"Warning: this DVD is infested with forced TV commercials that may freak you out."

Some of the few R1s I had have ads also but in the form of inserts and usually is a promo related to the movie/DVD itself.

At least you can throw it/them away.

Unlike these commercials that are forced upon you.

Bukas makalawa baka pati ad ng Channel 2 kasama na din dyan sa R3s.

The R1 DVD of Heroes: Season One also has a commercial that plays when you insert the disc. But it's different from these annoying R3 commercials because:

a. You can fast forward through it;

b. It's very short. A longer version of the commercial is present on the disc, which you can access through the special features; and

c. It's a commercial for the Nissan Versa, the car driven by characters Ando Masahashi/Hiro Nakamura on the series, so it will bring a smile to any Heroes fan's face.

Maybe if Magnavision must place commercials on their DVDs, they can note the above. Particularly reason a.

Here's a related thread: Commercials on DVDs.

RE commercials on Spiderman single-disc DVD, Can't you skipped them via Menu or Title button on the remote?

or maybe the "Disc Navigator" feature of the player. Am tempted to get this but it just would be different from the other 2 Spidey DVDs I have in Amaray (replaced local original case)...oh well.

pics naman of the 2-disc guys...

may slipcase ba yung 2 disc na spiderman 3?

allanmandy · « **Reply #159 on:** Sep 25, 2007 at 01:27 PM »

I don't know if somebody asked this out before, but there having local adverstisements on the Spider-Man 3 DVD, does it mean this was pressed locally?

Heads up: The Single Disc Spiderman 3 that sells for Php 595 and packaged in a stylish Super Jewel Box case is not Imported DVD but locally pressed DVD9.

allanmandy · « **Reply #161 on:** Sep 25, 2007 at 01:41 PM »

Thanks. I should have stated it more clearly, but I was referring to the 2-Disc DVD.

There are no ads on the 2-disc dvd. Have no idea if it was pressed locally, though.

Mr. Hankey · « **Reply #163 on:** Sep 25, 2007 at 02:16 PM »

The two-disc DVD set has the "Imported DVD" sticker on them, and the discs themselves are stamped with "Made in Taiwan."

allanmandy · « **Reply #164 on:** Sep 25, 2007 at 02:34 PM »

Ah okay. I am holding out on this release because of those ads. Good thing the 2-disc set doesn't have them. Thanks!

I thought the sticker "Imprted DVD" is solely used by Warner.

i think warner's stickers are the round ones while magnavision's are the triangle ones on the upper right corner..

has anyone seen the trilogy boxed set yet? i pre-ordered this one. Astro said la pa daw..

Got my 2-disc with the free shirt from pinoydvd.biz. Man the shirt would only fit my wife. Sakin suman and dating. If only the material was the same as spidey's costume...pipilitin ko. $:-\$

Dropped by Asto Makati this afternoon and the 2-disc edition now comes bundled w/ a Spider-Man poster. Kinda makes me wish na hindi na lang ako nag preorder since hindi kasya sa akin yung t-shirt.

John E. · « **Reply #172 on:** Sep 29, 2007 at 04:37 AM »

ako kinda wished i did'nt get the single disc and just went for that!

i just got disappointed instead of being satisfied!

av_phile1 · « **Reply #173 on:** Sep 29, 2007 at 07:24 AM »

Same here. I'll be getting the 2-disc version once it goes for 299 next year. No rush. The single disc feature film rocks notwithstanding, just take a pee after loading it.

pchin · « **Reply #174 on:** Sep 29, 2007 at 07:46 AM »

Good thing I got the 2-disc first. If only I saw the single disc casing, I would have easily convinced to get it. Looks quite nice...

Wiggum · « **Reply #175 on:** Sep 29, 2007 at 10:59 PM »

The movie wasn't really that good to begin with (compared to the first two Spideys). But Magnavision's decision to force feed those ads on customers who bought the single-disc version is the death blow. This title will probably - and rightfully - rot on the shelves.

Buti na lang there are boards like this that will help us weed out and avoid these duds.

I hope the other companies will show more respect & courtesy to their customers, and won't make the same mistake with the upcoming DVD releases of this year's summer movies.

Suggestion lang sa disgruntled buyers of the single-disk edition: why don't you try to have your copies replaced with a 2-disc version (or any other DVD of equal value) na lang? I think that you may have a VERY VALID reason for returning it naman. Show your displeasure through this and hopefully it will force them not to do this again.

DVD_Freak · « **Reply #177 on:** Sep 30, 2007 at 08:39 PM »

it might be hard if there is no damage or nothing broken with the product....they might not replace it. but at least one could try.

frootloops · « **Reply #178 on:** Oct 01, 2007 at 02:36 AM »

The damage has been done when they did this with Casino Royale single disc, and now with S3. So now my trust with Magna is already broken.

boredfilmmaker · « **Reply #179 on:** Oct 02, 2007 at 06:17 PM »

is the trilogy available at astro already? .biz already has it for P1850 and was just wondering how it looks like.. it says there it's a digipak but only 3 discs..
