Fun with X2 and Pirates (Pics and Info!)

Moonraker · 11-15-2003, 03:07 AM

Hey All... Just got my copy of X2 and Pirates and I am going to be posting pictures and taking requests for info.

I know the first question... and the answer is YES. R1 Pirates has DTS (I dont know if that has been confirmed earlier... but I see it right here in the menu!)

No store broke street, I was able to get them through a friend.

EDIT: Smudged for friend's protection

Sorry

Moonraker · 11-15-2003, 03:20 AM

Here is the DTS in the Menu

X2 Back cover..

Moonraker · 11-15-2003, 03:31 AM

Thanks Anti-Hero... I was about to scan mine... I didn't realize DVD Empire had it up already...

Anyway here are the discs (Both Pirates and X2 are in Slim Dual Amaray Cases!!

AHEM

Lucky Bastard

Glad to see Pirates of the Caribbean is getting the DTS treatment. Now here's my question. When you play Pirates (if you have the receiver to encode DD EX) Does the receiver nfact pick up an EX coding on the disc. Just wondering since it was a DD-EX track in theaters.

But again

YOU LUCKY BASTARD

DTS

X2 and Pirates of the Caribbean sound like really awesome DVD sets, ill definetly get them.

papibear · 11-15-2003, 04:23 AM

How the FUCK are you getting this so early??? It's not due 'til December 2nd! Disney's shipping discs more than 2 weeks in advance?

Where'd you purchase it?

Looks great!!!

Donkey · 11-15-2003, 04:27 AM

I was also wondering were he got them from. I'm hoping to get them as Christmas gifts because I loved both of the movies and the set's look and sound good! Thanks for posting,

Triple HHH · 11-15-2003, 04:44 AM

Moonraker, just wondering here, but in those pics of Pirates and X2 it shows the DVD trays facing the opposite way from which they are usually arranged in R1 dvds. Did you rearrange it for photographic purposes or are they packaging trays differently now?

Have fun with them, especially the DTS on Pirates.

edit -- nm, I only had to look at the first pic to answer my question. Duh. *smacks forehead*

Moonraker · 11-15-2003, 05:55 AM

Looking around the X2 DVD, Some footage is missing...

There was a shot from the POV inside the fridge looking up at Wolverine that is gone. I remember it from the theaters because i was really distracted by that shot. Anyways, now its just a longer take on Bobby. Just thought you might be interested in this.

Oh BTW I saw X2 in theaters early... maybe it was taken out from later theater prints?? Anyone else remember that shot?

The bag under the POTC case says something "outlet." Since it says "CD's" and what looks like "DVD's" that could be where he got them.

Dehrian · 11-15-2003, 07:26 AM

If you guys who are asking him where he bought them early would actually read the first post, he said: "No store broke street, I was able to get them through a friend."

BubbleGumUK · 11-15-2003, 09:49 AM

Checked the pic for the "outlet" info - looks like someone "smudged" them out!

Anyway, I'm picking up mine Monday morning along with my Alien Quadrilogy box. Glad Pirates got DTS in the end.

The sound in the theater was the one aspect that I thought was lacking (both places that I saw it anyway) and couldn't wait to be able to pump it up at home.

Nice lookin' sets!

Dirty · 11-15-2003, 12:22 PM

Pirates of the Caribbean has that nice cover slip just like the Scarface (2-Disc Anniversary Edition) .... pretty cool, I'm picking it up as soon as its available.

When I watched this a couple of days ago (got my R1 copy early too), there is a shot in Iceman's house looking up at Wolverine as he's looking through the fridge and then picks up a beer.

http://www.movietyme.com have got Alien Quadrilogy and Pirates in stock among others.

Thank You! I was looking in the wrong place!

Moonraker · 11-15-2003, 02:05 PM

Here is the Pirates box from behind....

Didnt feel like scanning, so a picture with everyone's fav forum in the bg!

Moonraker · 11-15-2003, 02:08 PM

Pirates Menu... simple but effective.

Moonraker · 11-15-2003, 02:13 PM

The Pirates Book folds out (There are other pages though)

Glad I could be of service.

Pirates looks like a nice set, I've not seen it and was going to buy it on DVD anyway. R1 will be my choice over R2, will get soon.

Moonraker · 11-16-2003, 06:15 PM

Here is the X-2 Booklet.

SephirothClone · 11-16-2003, 06:50 PM

That is some pimp shit! I cannot wait to run the DTS on my system.

Killroy · 11-18-2003, 12:45 AM

Holy shiat!!! DTS! Pirates!! On my Lordy!!!

Next Purchases:

Two Towers: EE: DTS
X2: DTS
Pirates o Carribean: DTS

Oh DTS!!!

doubledown · 11-18-2003, 12:25 PM

Excellent, I want Pirates....if anybody wants me to Share The Love with them through Amazon, let me know and you'll get the love

blakely614 · 11-18-2003, 12:59 PM

i'm glad to see pirates is in an amaray case.

mrcoaster · 11-18-2003, 02:24 PM

Can't wait to pick up both of these DVDs!!

ctoelle · 11-18-2003, 06:17 PM

Damn, these both look like killer sets. I will definitly pick upX2 , but am still on the fence about Pirates. After seeing Master and Commander this weekend, I found it to be the better movie.

much more realistic, and not full of Disney cheesiness.
