Retailer Exclusive Blu-Rays - Blu-ray Forum

III UNDEAD III · 10-16-2009, 03:39 AM

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone knew of a list of Retailer Exclusive Blu Rays or if we could work to compile one.
I know that there's...
The Green Mile (Best Buy)
Madagascar (BD/DVD Combo Target only)
Madagascar 2 (BD/DVD Combo Target only)
Kung Fu Panda (BD/DVD Combo Target only)
Monsters vs. Aliens (BD/DVD Combo Target only)
Transformers 2 (IMAX Exclusive footage at Walmart)

Then you've got all the SteelBooks that are exclusive to Amazon or Futureshop.

As you can see, Germany has a ton of exclusives.

Off the top of my head, Amazon has the exclusive Nite Owl edition of Watchmen. Blu-ray.com's search function lends a helping hand. Linky.

Well according to releaselists.com it is scheduled to come out on Nov 10th. That site has been pretty accurate for the most part but has also been off on some release dates on occasion too.

Undead,
Were you referring to movies not available anywhere else, or also to those that have store-specific exclusive packaging?

Woodstock (amazon, Target and Wal-Mart exclusives)
Watchmen (Best Buy special packaging w/ Dr. Mahattan)
SW The Clone Wars (Target exclusive w/ comic book, European steelbook)
Superman/Batman Public Enemies (BB exclusive w/ Batman figure)

Did that site just list Pulp Fiction as a possible December release?

I believe the only mention of Pulp Fiction on that site is the Australian 15th-anniversary edition with Briefcase packaging, which is supposed to be out next month.

What was exclusive about the Best Buy WOZ set wasn't the label.

It included 4 lenticular postcards. Amazon also had an exclusive, their WOZ UCE set came with 4 mini-posters.

RebelPrince1986 · 10-16-2009, 08:07 AM

Twilight (2 Disc + Digital Copy of feature and bonus material @ Target)

opterasis · 10-16-2009, 02:06 PM

100 Feet was a Hollywood Video exclusive, but I know all other retailers were getting it eventually, if they haven't yet.

I meant to say that. My cold medication has me loopy.

Trekofile · 10-16-2009, 06:47 PM

I know Amazon had some different bands, and features, as well as Target. Was Walmart just pkging, or also excl. features/artists performances?

Futureshop Canada also has an exclusive steelbook for this release.

Also I don't know how "exclusive" Gremlins is as I found it at both and HMV and Blockbuster.

It's a Target exclusive in the United States. Canada saw a wide release.

Oh, good to know, I was surprised when I saw it as I figured I would have to wait for a wide release as we dont have Target here.

Blockbuster has had it in stores as well. In fact, I rented and watched it on Tuesday. Very good movie IMHO.
