The first two films are 5-disc sets? Wow. Not to mention the remaining films seem to be 4-disc sets.

I wonder how they're spacing it out. Must be 2 BDs, 2 DVDs and 1 DC surely? Otherwise I can't help but think it's an error.

The Apocalypse · 10-08-2011, 01:04 PM

Wow. I thought they'd come later rather than sooner, but it's good news, or maybe not so good for those ordering the collection in December.

Vashetti · 10-08-2011, 01:06 PM

For christ sake, I've been completing my HP Blu-Ray collection, literally just ordered GOF on eBay...

These all better be extended, I expect PS and COS to be extended at least because the Americans got them.

The Apocalypse · 10-08-2011, 01:08 PM

There'll probably be an announcement in the near future.

ChrisDilke · 10-08-2011, 01:11 PM

No UCE for Half-Blood Prince? I know Deathly Hallows hasn't had one in the US yet, and since I haven't heard anything about when the two parts will get one, I'll keep my pre-order in for Part 2. But Half-Blood Prince has definitely had one.

They're probably coming later.

I just preordered all five. Although i would like to know what is in the boxes and whether the packaging is the same as the Americans.

Defo hoping for more info soon.

Typical.Just got the first four from the US.

The Apocalypse · 10-08-2011, 06:24 PM

I might pick these up individually or wait for the set next year.

keelhaul_isaiah · 10-08-2011, 06:29 PM

This isn't going to be something that will go OOP soon right?
Or how soon do people think we will get 6, 7 and 7.2?

cos i never bought any of them on blu-ray (was waiting for the complete set), i could avoid double dipping for the UCEs if I don't have to wait too long for the last three...

6 is up for pre-order now as well, 14th November, same as the others.

Anyone else find it a bit odd that nowhere else has these up yet? I've cancelled my boxset pre-order (was only getting the £32 one to tide me over until these releases thinking we'd see them Easter time at the earliest) but am now wondering if HMV has just made an error as there's no sign of these releases anywhere else. Hopefully not though (although I'd have been happy for them to give us 2 every three months or so rather than 6 all on one day).

Unless of course, they are exclusive to HMV.

I was going to order the 1-8 limited edition boxset. For all it's flaws, of which there are many, the packaging looked nice and it came with a photobook.

But now that these UCE's, possibly the same ones released in the US, are FINALLY coming out, I might aswell get these and not the 1-8 limited edition boxset, as I don't have any HP films on blu-ray.

I bet that getting the UCE's will be a lot more expensive though.

antmumford · 10-11-2011, 11:07 PM

Wow! we're finally getting Ultimate Editions, about time and the Limited Boxset preorder has now been cancelled.

I really want to see the creating Harry Potter docs, but if these come in huge boxes filled with cheap tat I'll stick with the £32 box. £4 a film or £24, hmmm..

tuxqi · 10-12-2011, 11:12 AM

I'm just happy with the plain standard 1-7p2 set... cheaper and less space taken up...

but you just know that when the UCE of 7p1 and 7p2 come out there will be an ULIMATE-Ultimate Collector's Edition with all 8 UCEs in some Harry Potter themed tat that will one day end up in some charity shop or boot sale.

KingSimba · 10-13-2011, 04:11 PM

Look's like they wont be HMV exclusives

Thank God, that means I don't have to buy them right away. I'm having to save enough money for exclusives as it is with all these steelbooks coming out.

blu for me · 11-27-2011, 10:31 PM

I ordered PS and CoS from the US when they came out there (as they are handily region free, thanks B-R.com) and it was worth it as they are both extended cuts, CoS was great, loads of new scenes and extra bits. The rest are a waste of time. WB, why would I spend extra £15(ish) just for a 1 hour documentary?
