I think that cover looks great! Its nicely presented and makes Robo look so damned cool. Also, the new stuff look ok so I may very well get this and the font does not look too bad...

Thanks for the info Kamen...

This new info is going to make a lot of people happy!

-----------------------------------

The font is a lot better than what they usually use (at least for US releases), but I can't help but think how much better the original logo would've looked on this otherwise awesome cover.

But I'm not gonna complain much, it's a million times better than the lenticular cover garbage...


-----------------------------------

Maybe the old logo but done in the same style as the rest of the cover...

That's just what I was thinking Roboduck, so I made a photoshop mock-up, just to see how it would look with the logo from the Criterion DVD.

I'm gonna buy it twice. That cover is the most inventive cover I've seen in the past ten years.

That certainly makes RoboCop look like he's still as cool as the day the movie was premiered.

This is great stuff! For the 20th anniversary, it pays total respect to an icon.

MGM finally gave us a good product. Not to say that the Trilogy release wasn't too shaby. But a 2 disc treatment is killer!

I think the lenticular cover DVD that's coming out, might be just a re-issue of MGM's barebones release of the theatrical cut that's been around for awhile.

Oh YES! Now that's one fucking hell of a cover! Screw the lenticular release, I'm getting this 2 disc set when it comes out. Nice font too, even if it isn't the original one, and the picture on the cover just looks plain bad-ass, if only his head was turned a little more towards us so we could see the face more. Bring it on!

What surprises me is that for the longest time ANYTHING RoboCop was released in the UK and other countries before here in the States.

And that this release is here first. To me it's a bit surprising.

I did have a T2 metal case release DVD. But that one's long one. But Aside from that, I've never had a Steel case DVD before. So that's a first for me. Hate to say it, it's a welcome change from MGM.

I love the design of this case most of all. But there are a lot of people out there that think this strays too far from RoboCop's usual BLUE cases. Blue, as far as Robo is concerned, is played out big time.

And as far as Having him face the opposite way rather than head-on is a good concept. I'm actually tired of looking at RoboCop head on. I think it's time that RoboCop is viewed from different angles to te general public.

I think RoboCop has a "good side" to him. When properly lit and photographed, Robo looks intimidating. Especially since looking at him head-on has become so redundent.

Look at that cover again. He looks like he's ready to take on the entire city. As he was built. Fact that the picture was taken from a screenshot from the drug-factory scene is regardless.

The gun is in full view of the general passer-by, making the Auto-9 something to be adored as well as feared.

I think it's a little early for stores to start accepting preorders.  Plus the announcement came yesterday, so you might want to give stores some time to get and read the announcement.  If preorders haven't started by a week or two, then they might not start till June or July.

The first disc seems exactly the same as the old Trilogy boxset, dunno whether they digitally remaster the movie, like they did for James Bond. If they did, it will be great; if not, I would rather wait until I get a blu-ray player in the future.


-----------------------------------

Wed May 09, 2007 5:14 pm

The difference is that disc one has the theatrical cut and not the extended cut.  The extended cut is on disc two with the new features.

Thu May 10, 2007 8:04 pm

Anyone know how long the extended cut is?

The terminator 2 extended edition is like 20 minutes more, and Spider-man 2 is like 8. I'm wondering how much longer Robocop will be?


-----------------------------------

Kamen Rider

Thu May 10, 2007 9:06 pm



-----------------------------------

The extended cut is the same cut of the movie that's on the Out of print Criterion DVD, and also in the Trilogy Box Set.  It's only about a minute, give or take a few seconds, longer.

We're getting all the old features from the Trilogy box set edition plus the theatrical cut (although I'll never watch that one...LOVE the unedited edition bust) as well as the new features previously mentioned on the Blu-Ray release.  The metal case and cover art kicks butt too.

And this is all for less than $20 too!!!!  That's the best part IMO.

I agree it's classic, but if you want to attract potential new fans you need to make the cover of the new DVD look like it's a freaking cool movie, and they did that.  People who have never seen the movie, and see the classic poster as the cover to he DVD would think that it's some cheesy piece of crap Direct to video movie.

I stand corrected on my previous post about the drug-factory scene.

Looks like laser surgery does wonders for things after all. Me? I'm still stuck with my contacts. Which can be bothersome at times. Especially when I fall asleep in them all the time. I forget their even there.

Still, MGM did a good job on the editing. I won't give an educated guess as to where they got the gun part from.

Whatever a steel book is...

Steel Book, probably means it'll be like the steel case for Halo 2: Collector's Edition, or like the metal case like for the special edition of Akira.  I'm hoping the case is like the Halo 2: CE case since that case was pretty sturdy looking.

I'm definitely going to buy it for what the hell. However I don't care if theres 25, 30, 40, or so on anniversary editions, this is probably the last Robocop DVD I'll buy and probably last time ever. I already have a bare bones Robocop edition and the trilogy. Maybe I can toss my bare bones one away for this one.

Anyone know if this is down for a UK/Euro release? I don't fancy the idea of shelling out for the import, and then seeing it in my local DVD store only a month later.

Well the way sony, fox and mgm have been going about their blu-rays out here in Australia we will get the Robo blu-ray when the us get it give or take a month. But the dvd who knows.

I'm sure the UK will get the DVD and Blu-Ray aswell. Sony, Fox, and MGM would be idiots not to bring it out in other countries.

The only reason I will fork out a little extra for Blu-Ray is because its the 20th anniversary, so it would be an insult not to...

All of the other tin packages special anniversary editions are out in the UK, so I am pretty certian this will be too. HMV and Virgin even have special sections for the anniversary tin box sets so check them out.

There's a difference between covers, italy,germany,usa.

Out of Italy, Germany, and the US covers for the 2 Disc set.  The US has the best.  In both the Italian, and German covers, the Auto 9 looks like it's a basic pistol (we all know it's not.) Plus Italy and Germany's covers are using that bland boring generic logo, where the US has a newer more RoboCop like logo.  Also, the US cover gets extra points for being a Steelbook case, where it looks like the German, and Italian versions aren't.

All of those covers look awful, I mean what the fuck is up with the Auto-9? Didn't anyone realise how it looks? It's tiny!

If the UK release has the generic (i.e. shit) RoboCop logo that the Italians got together with a god-awful attempt at an Auto-9, I WON'T be buying. Simple as.

Anyone know if its just the same commentary from the other DVDs or a new one?
The DTS sound track is a big plus.

-----------------------------------

Seeing as how the commentary is on the theatrical cut disc, I'm gonna go with it's the same old commentary that's on the other MGM releases of the movie.  Which is alright since there's no point in making a new commentary track, unless you get Peter Weller, Nancy Allen, Ronny Cox, and Kurtwood Smith to be on it.

I think it's kinda funny that for once the whole world is getting a Robo dvd release with the crappy USA/Region 1 generic ROBOCOP logo...

Everyone, that is, except for the USA/region 1...

My brother got me this DVD set for a gift and I really love it, however, this created the problem that collectors often have: Do I buy the trilogy set when I already have the original on a special DVD set? I wanted to get Robocop 2 and 3 and they had a 3 disc set, but then I would be buying the original over again. 
Now, as a fan of the movies, I should have no problem owning multiple copies of Robocop, right? But the trilogy was just a basic theatrical release, so I figured that I wasn't getting anything I didn't already have. (I also have the original on VHS, which I still use. I know, I know. . . . I know. But mostly for my awesomely bad movies, some of which haven't been released on DVD anywhere. I have a Robert Z'Dar movie collection).
Long story less long . . . I didn't buy Robocop 2 or 3 until much later, but now I have them and all is well.
