OK... that's interesting. The first and third movies didn't come with a slip cover, but they included it on the second.

LORDs_angellos · 09-19-2008, 07:53 PM

Yeah, that's pretty annoying. I really liked the slipcover for #3 too... meh.

Not a biggie, at least they're in the box so the lack of slipcovers doesn't stand out.

I have never understood why some people are so concerned about slipcovers.

The second and third movies' slipcovers have a neat three dimensional effect and a nice swirly texture, respectively. They're not just repetitive slipcovers, like Cars and many others. These actually add some class to the movie package.

Slipcovers are just more garbage for the world's landfills. It saddens me.

...

Only if you throw them out.

All the boxsets I've seen have no slipsleeves at all. But could it be that the reason for the first and third be that both have been corrected from the individual releases, the first having framing issues resolved, and third simply correcting the error on the back where the old one said 1080i.

It's not a concern on my part. I just found it awkward that they would package in such fashion.

Not very imaginative of them to only use Johnny Depp's face on all 3 panels - boring in fact. They could have used three different actors.

Devildog151 · 09-20-2008, 02:46 PM

I'm not so annoyed by the slipcovers as I am the price. I held off on the $20 a piece sales thinking the trilogy can be bought for $45 or $50 and now the trilogy releases at $20 a piece and with missing slipcovers. Lame.

I like my slipcovers.

On the other hand, this packaging is really shoddy. I understand that COTBP was fixed for this release, so it's worth getting, but the presentation isn't really up to par. I expected more from Disney and their flagship feature franchise.

Minimejer05 · 09-22-2008, 11:35 PM

Im glad I bought mine all seperate with slip covers. Decent box art for the trilogy case tho.

Bokchoy · 09-23-2008, 12:00 AM

I got my trilogy for $25, sealed.

I didn't think I was gonna buy it, but asked the guy working 'how much for the Pirates 3-pack?'. He musta been a new guy, but just said $25. It was the only one he had, otherwise I woulda bought 5.

I personally don't care about the slipcovers. It's what's inside that matters more to me. The video is spectacular.

alexakajeff · 09-22-2008, 10:08 PM

why such good quality on such bad movies?

That's a subjective opinion, many people really like these movies. I for one would like to see the potential of Blu-ray properly utilized on ALL releases, not just the ones that I'm interested in.

TheZoof · 09-22-2008, 10:18 PM

I only like the first of the three so I only bought the first one.

I also am not into slip covers. I think the Transformers Blu-Ray looks way better without the slip so I actually discarded it.
