Cover art for the R1 DVD...

Lets keep this bumped up till the official press release.

SephirothClone · 08-07-2003, 05:16 AM

Fullscreen covers (the better cover IMO) ...

Gah, I want Magneto and Professor X!!

**SilentBob** · 08-07-2003, 05:35 AM

Wow i actually like the cover art. It looks so Spiffy. I think the Nightcrawler and Mystique cover works better then the Full Screen Magneto and Prof. X cover.

At least it looks like a X 2 1/2 will not be released. 2-Disc, good extras and i'm pretty sure a DTS track is scheduled to be included.

Its a keeper for me.

From what i saw on IGN DVD boards it looks like a November release

(couldn't click on the thread itself. Just its title i could see)

Agreed. Can't wait to get this.

Oscar Antonio M · 08-07-2003, 05:55 AM

I pretty much like the cover-art and it sounds like a great DVD but its a shame that there is going to be a Pan & Scan version

Aww... give the people what they want. As long as there is a Widescreen I'm happy...

I also think the cover art is acceptable...

***SeanL*** · 08-07-2003, 09:12 AM

I too like the cover art. I am looking forward to this coming out.

Dilmo · 08-07-2003, 10:04 AM

Can't wait! Put me down for a widescreen

DarkSamurai · 08-07-2003, 12:26 PM

So is there a date for the Reigon one release yet?

strongly rumored to be 9/16

DarkSamurai · 08-07-2003, 05:21 PM

That seems a little soon. A little over a month to start what I'm guessing would be a huge ad campaign. I heard dates for release for both September and November, but I was hoping someone heard something official. I don't know if I would believe that 9.16 date very much.

darthbenbo · 08-07-2003, 05:55 PM

Oh my god.....the cover art......looks.........good. And the special features look kick-ass (hopefully we will get the same or similar ones on the Region 1 release). Can't wait to load this one into my player!

Anti-Hero · 08-07-2003, 06:04 PM

The cover is not that great.. The teaser poster art woulda been great..

mtcarmel00 · 08-07-2003, 06:48 PM

The cover art looks pretty good. None of the heads are too large in size. I like both the widescreen and fullscreen covers, but will obviously be getting the widescreen version.

wahlers · 08-07-2003, 07:54 PM

Here's hoping that some of that gag reel shows up hidden on there somewhere...

3DMan · 08-07-2003, 08:03 PM

Looks exactly like the 1.5 art-which I guess is the point. Anyway, I'd rather have Lady Deathstrike on my disc than Halley Barry. Damn-no slipcase or foldout?

boddah · 08-07-2003, 09:21 PM

I guess I like the cover art. It doesn't bother me like most 'big' movie covers do, but it doesn't excite me either.

If it's a November release, I'm going to have an aneurysm. Walking into Best Buy that month will be like Charlie walking into the Chocolate Factory for the first time.

Not because it will be overwhelming and amazing, but because my local Best Buy has a river of molten chocolate running through it.

Suh-weeeeeeet!!!!

. . . and I DO mean literally.

Efstar · 08-08-2003, 04:54 AM

Is there going to be a commentary track?

sub780lime · 08-08-2003, 06:38 AM

so when do we get specs for teh region 1

clrb15 · 08-08-2003, 05:39 PM

I LOVE the Widescreen cover...i think it's excellent....not what i expected though for the cover.....but very good overall....Though I do want to know all of the DVD detail of this 2-Disc SE......Well.....I guess we'll just have to wait.

SephirothClone · 08-08-2003, 06:19 PM

Friday and no specs!! But here is the cover for the box set which has X-Men 1.5 and X2: X-Men United... And IMO this cover is FUCKING SWEET!!!!

Dehrian · 08-08-2003, 06:28 PM

I like the cover art, too, though mostly because it's got a hot looking Rogue on it.

Can't wait to pick this one up. My second favorite movie of the summer after Pirates of the Caribbean.

Marty McFly · 08-08-2003, 07:28 PM

Count me in for the Boxset.. I've yet to pick up 1.5 since I sold the original release awhile back.

mtcarmel00 · 08-08-2003, 07:54 PM

Wow, great art on the boxset! I'm getting that!

boddah · 08-08-2003, 08:49 PM

Aww. I want the box, but I already have 1.5

I hope there's a Jurassic Park 4-ish offer, where you can send away for the box.

Vonner · 08-08-2003, 09:41 PM

That collectors box is cool, but I think I'll pick up the regular edition (widescreen) now and wait for the trilogy box set.

heuresk · 08-08-2003, 09:44 PM

November is too far away... Maybe I'll just get the Japanese X2 in Sept. instead...

blakely614 · 08-08-2003, 10:32 PM

thedigitalbits.com is posting talk of an 11/25 street date. october and november are going to break me.

clrb15 · 08-08-2003, 11:08 PM

I already have the origianl X-Men DVD...so that means...I'll just get the 2-Disc Edition instead.....But that 4-Disc Set looks AWESOME!!!!

Crow T. Robot · 08-09-2003, 12:06 AM

i will be getting the box set since i only got the old x-men dvd and not 1.5

davisdvd.com is reporting 11/4 on their site now.

StinkPalm · 08-11-2003, 03:57 PM

..........that is messed up. that Box is just so cool!

**SilentBob** · 08-19-2003, 06:41 AM

According to SuperheroHype.com

On one of the new X2 Extreme Wallpapers it has a moving section for new info. One of them says catch X2 on DVD November 25th Not an OFFICIAL Official statement but good enough for me. It is a Fox Studio site.

Why the wait

*at least it was made official today

Keith · 08-19-2003, 02:04 PM

Does anyone know if the DD track is DD EX, or is it simply 5.1?

crazyboy_al8 · 08-19-2003, 03:42 PM

Awe man, that cover for the Box Set is really cool looking. Don't know if it's worth getting rid of 1.5 though for.

Cap42086 · 08-19-2003, 03:42 PM

My guess is that following suit from last year, it'll be a 5.1 mix that is helped out by enabling EX decoding.

Either way, I'm buying it.

MJZ · 08-20-2003, 08:27 AM

I bought the first R1 edition of X-Men when it was first released so I will be buying the box set as I have been pondering over whether to sell this one and buy 1.5 and now my problem has been answered. I was hoping they would release a box set with 1.5 and X2 in

Yeah, where are the region 1 specs?

Hopefully, the region 1 release will feature a DD EX audio track...

Peace...

Also today, we have specs on Fox's X2: X-Men United DVD. Set to street on 11/25 (SRP $29.98) in both full frame and anamorphic widescreen versions, look for the 2 disc set to include Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 audio, audio commentary with Brian Singer and Tom Sigel, a second commentary with Lauren Schuler Donner, Ralph Winter, Michael Dougherty, Dan Harris and David Hayter, 11 deleted scenes, The Second Uncanny Issue of X-Men making of documentary, 11 featurettes (including The Secret Orgin of X-Men, Nightcrawler Reborn, Evolution in the Details: Designing X2, United Colors of X, Wolverine Deathstrike Fight Rehearsal, Introducing the INCREDIBLE NIGHTCRAWLER!, Nightcrawler Stunt Rehearsal, Nightcrawler Time-lapse, FX2: Visual Effects, Requiem for Mutants: The Score of X2 and X2 Global Webcast Highlights), 3 theatrical trailers, a stills gallery and more. Sounds like a nice little package.

So looks like we get that DTS after all...
