New Universal Combo Pack re-releases - Blu-ray Forum

tylergfoster · 10-12-2011, 06:41 AM

I searched for a general thread on these but didn't find one.

The 40-Year-Old Virgin
Alpha Dog
American Gangster
Apollo 13
Backdraft
Carlito's Way
Darkman
Dawn of the Dead (2004)
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Hot Fuzz
In Bruges
Inside Man
The Jackal
Knocked Up
The Last Starfighter
Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels
Mamma Mia!
Pride and Prejudice
Serenity
Smokin' Aces
Spy Game
State of Play
U-571
Uncle Buck
Unleashed
Van Helsing
Wanted

Also Traffic and Out of Africa, but I think these are the old flipper discs.

I'm interested in these primarily because -- obsessive nitpick -- I don't like the foil covers Universal used to use (and I always like having DVD copies, just in case). Anyone heard of any more on the horizon? In particular, I'm hoping for Burn After Reading, Baby Mama, and Doomsday.

Sorry, but what do you mean by "foil covers"?

The initial wave of Universal Blu-Rays back when they first started releasing on Blu-Ray have these glossy foil-topped covers. Most of the first-generation releases on the above list would be examples. The Thing and Dawn of the Dead are pretty popular movies, if you own either of those you should look at your copies.
