theshadow1234 · 08-27-2008, 12:47 PM

I am not sure if this is an error but if you go to the website below, it tells you that they have it in stock and it ships in 1 day. I added to my cart to see what happens and to my suprise i recieved no errors.

Correct me if I'm wrong but shouldn't The Mist be released on 9/16/08?

oh god is that the real cover art? lol its terrible, but ill def be picking this up

Blu-News · 08-27-2008, 01:07 PM

Yes, it has been sent out to retailers now, although not supposed to be released until September 16th. Retailers usually ship catalog titles earlier.

jhansla · 08-27-2008, 01:15 PM

Why did they change the cover art to that awful mess....lol??

Tchotchke · 08-27-2008, 01:54 PM

That cover is alright with me!

Thanks for this - it seems the best price out there!

Col. Zombie · 08-27-2008, 02:01 PM

I noticed they still have a release date of August 5 on that web page. Something's not right, but if you get it, let us know so that we can start placing our orders.

I just put my order in. Saw the preview and it looked intriguing. This is a blind buy for me. Anyone seen it already? Is it good as the preview looks?

I like that art better. It is actually the original poster art from the movie, they also used it for the paperback re-release of the novela. The art used on the DVD is too generic.

Seretur · 08-27-2008, 02:08 PM

Yes, I love the new cover art heaps more.

Only a few more weeks for those of us dependant on Amazon.

Saw it and nope. I would not advise bling buying this movie. You may really like it but I advise against it. Hope it works out for you. So much better coming in September and October than this IMHO.

This movie was ok. It did have a shocking ending though. Kinda depressing in a way.

Hrly687 · 08-27-2008, 02:16 PM

yeah i can't really recommend a blind buy, because this movie might not hit for everyone, but personally i think it was underrated

I saw this at the weekend on DVD and will not be picking it up on blu - this film has the worst CGI I have ever seen! Ok story, some dodgy actors & some very dodgy CGI effects.

The ending is also completely pointless and stupid. I wouldn't even say it was shocking or depressing, just pointless.

The Mist was one of only a few King adaptations that were great.

Croweyes1121 · 08-27-2008, 02:24 PM

Yeah, that cover is *worlds* better. It's an original by Drew Struzan.

wakemeupalready · 08-27-2008, 02:40 PM

Movietyme.com also have this and 1408 in stock I'm intrigued to see if there will be region locking on these titles.

The Winsteins HD DVD's didnt have any.. I hope the blu's dont have any.

zanderol24 · 08-27-2008, 02:47 PM

i see the mist has been reviewed @ highdefdigest.com didnt get as good as i would have hoped. was thinking of getting this.

i probably still will however as the reviews not awful- just mediocre on the visual side

theshadow1234 · 08-27-2008, 02:59 PM

Has anyone actually bought it from the website and received a confirmation about the purchase and delivery date?

Thanks

PCiAM · 08-27-2008, 03:01 PM

Hmm, I'll be interested to read the reviews as well as I've been looking forward to this release because the film is rather excellent in my opinion.
