Title: Helboy II The Golden Army (November 11, 2008)
Post by: boredfilmmaker on Aug 23, 2008 at 05:13 AM
from DVDActive (http://www.dvdactive.com/news/releases/hellboy-ii.html):

Universal Home Video has announced 1-disc ($29.98), 3-disc ($34.98) and Blu-ray ($39.98) editions of  Hellboy II: The Golden Army which stars Ron Perlman. The full details have yet to be confirmed I'm afraid (including the street date) but we can tell you that the 3-disc edition will include a digital copy of the film and around 3 hours of bonus content. The 2-disc Blu-ray edition will also include the digital copy, along with a feature that enables you to build your own comic book. Stay tuned for further details as we get them.

A collector's set containing the 3-disc release will also be available for $59.98. This will include a Limited Golden Army Statue, and an excerpt from the journal of Guillermo Del Toro. The artwork is attached:

Looks like the 3-disc is a digi?  ::)   I'm interested with the Blu Giftset, but I hope they also release a Blu edition of the first movie giftset just to be consistent  :-\

Nice giftset :) Funny that they had to put the "Over $75 million" in the ads. :D

Why does it say "Over $75MM" in the leaflet? What does the other "M" stand for?

Tempted to get the version with the bust.

OT:

"MM" in Roman numerals is 2,000.

Here's how you write 1,000,000 in Roman numerals:

Looking at the giftset pic, what's inside is also the lenticular packaging right?

I wasn't able to catch this in cinemas, so I'm very excited of this release  :D

Pass. Although still unlikely, this will be a boxset problem if ever there'll be a second sequel  ;D

Sony did the 1st and the 2nd was Universal.. I guess, even with a 2nd sequel, the possibility of a box set is not good.. even Del Toro said so in an interview..

we're getting a gift set here as well according to Magna.. I think I'll just go for the R2 steelbook of both movies..

The R1 giftset looks good.  Hopefully our R3 is the same.  Keeping my fingers crossed that the R3 will have a sturdy box unlike that of R3 Crystal Skull giftset.

@RNIveron, how's the quality of the box?
Title: Re: Helboy II The Golden Army (November 11, 2008)
Post by: RNIverson on Nov 24, 2008 at 11:04 PM
I only have the LOTR Giftsets to compare it with, and I can say that it's quite the same with them. Except that I got HB Giftset with a dent-free box because it was packaged nicely  ;)
