A very short featurette (3 min) about the creating of a dummy Manny
Audio commentary

Music-less track with an audio intro by the filmmakers over the opening credits. They basically explained that they created this music-less track because, when working on the sound design of the movie, they realised how stupid the movie would be without the music and thus decided to provide this funny experience to viewers. It thus means experiencing the movie with actors randomly starting to sing the OST and an end sequnce with actors weirdly looking at each others and then at a farting corpse. I didn't watch the full movie like this but it is indeed quite weird. Sadly, it's only in DD 5.1 640 kbps.

The PQ is stellar.
The AQ is very good too (but I only have a 5.1 HT so can't say anything specific about the Atmos part of the mix). The music really takes advantage of the track by expanding a lot.

Just out of curiousity, where were you able to pick this up? I've seen a lot of people talking about already having the Blu in various places.

That's like being swayed by Armond White.

Very eloquently put. The reviewer probably didn't give it a chance past the first 5 minutes of the film.

I don't understand? The critic gives Swiss Army Man, a movie about a man and a talking corpse learning life lessons from each other one star, while he gives Sausage Party, which features "Adolf Hitler" being butt raped by "The Juice", three stars.

I don't get it.

Different strokes for different folks and all that. Personally, I thought it was quite the roller coaster: touching, funny, introspective, but most importantly a unique film. I echo the comments of favorite of the year so far.

AH HA Ha Ha ha ha !!!!...

A step up from Wilson I guess.
Looks like an interesting watch.

Didn't do much for me. The effects were visually hilarious and mostly well done but the story was tripe.

lol, I'm looking forward to this too. Both actors are decent and the plot is absurd, so unless the edit is poop, not sure how SAM wouldn't be enjoyable.

Best movie of the year comin in the mail tomorrow ~

danforth44 · 10-05-2016, 04:25 AM

I'll add to the praise. Just got finished watching it. Easily one of my favorite films this year.

It's a travesty that this thread is only 2 pages long.

darkness2918 · 10-05-2016, 07:53 AM

I'm looking forward to checking this out, sadly my local BB was sold out by the time I got there.

Dead By Shaun · 10-05-2016, 10:43 PM

I caught this during it's theatrical run and pre-ordered as soon as I got home. This film is definitely a bright spot in an otherwise really lackluster year. My copy arrived yesterday and I'm looking forward to revisiting it this coming weekend. Easily my favorite of the year so far

Nightman · 10-05-2016, 11:06 PM

I recently watched this for the first time and I loved every minute of it. I really liked the soundtrack. So much so that I ordered the LP from iam8bit! I can hardly wait for it to get here.

Mighty Max · 10-05-2016, 11:10 PM

Saw the trailer.
It looked good.
Grabbed it... will see if it is good after watching the entire thing.

shrex · 10-09-2016, 06:12 PM

Loved this in theaters..popped the Blu in. Awesome audio and video.

The Debts · 10-30-2016, 04:13 AM

Great friggin' movie. I really wish the last 20 minutes didn't drag but the very ending pretty much made it 100% worth it.

JHolliday · 10-30-2016, 04:37 AM

I loved this movie.

The Debts · 11-24-2016, 01:21 PM

Any chance of this being in the Black Friday sales? That'd be nice.

Very polarizing film. Saw it with 3 other people. We all thought it the worst film we sat through this year, perhaps this decade.

Didn't see anything but 9.99 on iTunes was good enough for me. Includes extras as wel

NovaNaut · 01-05-2017, 06:47 PM

Any sign of a UK Blu-Ray for this?
