- A few words about the new case . . .
- By now, you can find plenty of reviews of the content of this phenomenal Blu-Ray set, so go to them if you're looking for depth, as this is just a brief review to commend Warner for FINALLY putting this five-disc set into a standard-sized Blu-Ray case (though it's NOT shown in the customer images provided for this listing).
Received my second copy of this title in late July after picking it up during the $14.99 sale price, and was quite relieved to find a case no wider than 14mm thick! The previous "double-wide" was around 22-23mm, a full centimeter wider, and while that wasn't exactly hefty, it still smacked of unnecessarily making the product "seem" bigger than it needed to be because of the importance of the film within.
Basically, the construction of this new case is the same as the old: two flip trays on hinges, with an additional disc mounted on a hub on the inside back of the case. Only now, the flip trays are thin enough to fit in a Blu case that's only a millimeter or so wider than the standard-issue single-disc case.
I can only hope that ALL future Blu releases of up to five discs would consider a case like this. In an age where storage for the average DVD enthusiast -- esepcially the kind that collects titles like this one -- is at a premium, the less packaging, and "air", the better.
No guarantees you'll actually get this package when you order, as the double-wide case appears to be out there concurrently with this new one, and you're liable to get either from Amazon, so it's at least something to keep an eye peeled for should you choose to buy this in the store. - 2008-08-02, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:

- Great Movie, In a Great Edition
- This box is great! All 5 versions of the movie, many many great features, excellent. But pay attention, 3 discs are blu-rays (with the movie versions) and 2 discs are common dvds (with features), be beware. But all great, all very well done! There's no features for Vangelis or his soundtrack. The test for actress hole Pris and Rachel, no contains the Sean Young or Daryl Hanna tests (they says that tests are lost) but only test for Nina Axelrod and the other actress (i don't remember the name) who'd be Pris. There are 2 alternate endings, 1 alternate opening and almost 45 minutes of alternate or deleting scenes. And many other incredible features. I'm so happy, there are subtitles in portuguese (for Blu-ray edition only)!
Highly recomended. - 2008-07-28, 1 of 1 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- A must have for any scifi junky.
- Looks fantastic in 1080p. If you liked this movie when it came out you will like it better now in HD.

- Classic movie... all of them
- Very nice packaging of all of the different versions of the film. If you love Blade Runner, you'll love this. Of course, if you love Blade Runner, you probably already own all of them, anyway (as I did when I purchased this).
The "briefcase" is a little flimsy, but it doesn't really matter because you know it's not to be used as a functional briefcase - it's packaging.
The extras inside are not worth the cost of the product itself. In other words, buy it for the movies, and not for the extras inside. If you're looking just for the extras, you could be a little disappointed. - 2008-07-27, 0 of 1 people found this review helpful, Rated:
