New UK Double Feature Slipcovers - Paramount & Warner

[ricster]

Here are a new first wave of UK Double Feature films with slipcovers from Warner Bros and Paramount Home Video.

There are others but I didnt purchase those.

In my opinion these are the first stages of the blu ray being thrown in the bargain bin. . Some of these awful asda double packs make me sad. Lol.

The Paramount ones actually looks half decent. Having the artwork blend like that instead of just a sharp border like most other two or triple packs

This always happens, though - once a format has been around long enough, the 'double pack' or 'triple pack' is a classic method of re-releasing old discs at a budget price. They did it with DVD, hell, they even did it with VHS!

Even more disturbingly, they've never sussed a better way to do the cover art in 30+ years of home video.

I don't think they are exclusive to asda, they are widely available, here are another 2.

V For Vendetta/Constantine and Police Academy 1,2

i dont mind these too much. only the same as the US triple and double feature sets.
it saves a bit of shelf space, and for some films its the first time they have a slip.
im hoping for a few more to crop up like this tbh.
i would love fox to do something similar, with slips.
