Just found one of those yesterday, I was pretty happy. Don't know if I'm going to keep it or not though.

According to Amazon it comes out on Nov. 9th. That's why I can't find it yet.

Nah... No trickery involved. I had bad lighting (took the picture at night) and took a bad camera angle. My slip looks great to me!

DMC shipped mine with slip covers
AMZ didn't

Not sure about Wal Mart and other such places.

Leonidas King · 11-05-2010, 02:27 PM

Seems Grown Ups is getting a slip after all. According to Sony's site.

Excellent news that

I'm hoping Resident Evil has one.

Spoke to a person that had some slips for sale today. Managed to get a few I was looking for, showgirls, 17 again, dear john, sherlock holmes, ponyo, nightmare before christmas (1st one), the golden compass (embossed) and a few others I can't remember. I have another golden compass slipcover but it's flat with no embossing.

I know! But I wouldn't brag about mine! And I hope these weren't purchased JUST because of the slipcovers!

Guilty pleasures are guilty pleasures, but come on!

Yep. It's not nearly as cool as the current artwork with slip.

I own Whiteout with the slipcover and posted a pix here and I liked it. I thought it was quite faithful to the source graphic novel with exception of the ultra hot Kate Beckinsale for the relatively plain looking Carrie Sterenko (named for legendary Nick Fury Agent of SHIELD artist and all around tough guy and master magician/escape artist Jim Sterenko)

The missus and I liked Time Traveler's Wife....not enough to buy it...but it was a decent enough flick.

taste is relative, brother....taste is relative.

I know, I was just messin around. See, you could argue that you are a big fan of the Whiteout graphic novel, and that's fine. I suspect some people are buying slip covers JUST for the slip cover.

I mean, hey, if it means more BD sales, have at it!! Support the format any way you can!

yeah thats cool, even though the movie was mediocre

i suspected a sleeve though, as it seems to be sony's release policy with the
combo versions.
somebody actually posted a pic of the real sleeve three days ago on the slipcover sale thread:
https://forum.blu-ray.com/3953687-post18.html
very well hidden

dvdempire also has the backart posted, which confirms the sleeve:
