List of Major Studio Double / Triple / Quadruple Features

[chadr108]

I may have missed it, but I did not see the Daredevil/Elektra/League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (Fox - Own the Moments) triple feature listed. Just picked that one up for $9.96 at Walmart.

I love these double/triple/quadruple features. As long as the discs of each movie are the same as the individual releases, I'm all for it. I'm not sure how many other people found this out the hard way, but the Troy DC & Alexander Revisited double feature at Walmart is bogus. Only the 1st disc of Alexander is included & the 2nd disc with rest of movie & extras is not in it.

Both are already listed. Under the studio headings, I start with double features, then do triple, and quadruple (if there are any). The first is under 20th Century Fox and the second is under Walt Disney.

I think the rule of thumb with studio double / triple / quads is that you're only gonna get one disc. The one exception I've seen to this is the Ben-Hur / Ten Commandments double feature because the films are spread out over two discs. They match the individual releases of both films, but both were released in collector's boxes with a third bonus disc.

I have one that I don't see listed (don't shoot me if it's there ).

Universal released Dante's Peak / Daylight


Also, while it may be difficult, may I suggest also adding a code to tell us which ones are multi-disc bundles and which are one disc only (ala Mill Creek).

I can confirm that the above is two separate discs.

Gotcha - I wondered about that Ben Hur/Ten Commandments double feature as I have been thinking about picking it up. Good to know.

The Troy/Alexander one just seems to be an abberation out of many multi features I have picked up. I understand when they put the movie only disc in these multi features where the previous individual release had maybe a 2nd disc with extras, etc. It's just that the individual release of Alexander Revisited has 2 hours of the movie on the 1st disc & the 3rd hour of the movie & extras on the 2nd disc. So in this Troy/Alexander double feature, they only give you the 1st disc of the set with 2 out of 3 hours of Alexander. It was a bummer finding that out after buying it. Just makes me wonder how many people bought this set & didn't notice they only get a partial movie for Alexander.

Oh, well, you should contact Warner Bros. about that. You should get all of the movie!

Thanks for the list, tgf. I'll definitely keep an eye on it as an extra reference on these types of releases, as I really enjoy them as well - but (generally) only when they're from they same movie franchise. My OCD can't handle the "mix-n-match" sets though, since I can't properly alphabetize them on my BD shelves with the rest of my movies. For some of the more popular franchises, however, I usually stick with the fancier boxset type of releases (Batman, Superman, Lethal Weapon, Harry Potter, James Bond, etc.) I use to prefer only getting single BD releases, but like many here, as my collection has grown (too big), I'm starting to gain interest in consolidating some of my older individual releases to save on space (Kill Bill, Predator, Night at the Museum, Paranormal Activity, X-Files, etc.)

This is definitely one of the major selling factors for these sets with me. There's a lot of "lesser"/cheesy/embarrassing/marginal titles that I wouldn't pick up individually, but when they're combined into one BD case I feel "safer" nabbing them and sticking them more inconspicuously on my shelves (TMNT, Oceans, Dusk 'til Dawn, Father of the Bride, Hollow Man, Open Water, Scooby Doo, Under Seige, much of my wishlist below, etc)

I wholeheartedly agree with this, almost to the point that I wish you (OP) could somehow notate the occasional sets that fall into this category on your list (with the assistance of other members here, of course). It seems whenever threads pop up for new Double/Triple/Quadruple Features, most of the immediate questions are whether the Special Features are still included, and/or whether they've been (stupidly) sandwiched onto 1 disc lessening the PQ. I know I just asked that exact question last week regarding the 28 Days/Weeks Later 2-pack.

Forgive me for not limiting myself to double features, but since you asked, here's the (franchised) multi-sets I'd love to see in the future:

Ace Ventura 1 & 2
The Addams Family 1 & 2
Bad Boys 1 & 2
Beverly Hills Cop 1, 2 & 3
Blade 1, 2 & 3
Borat / Bruno / The Dictator (making an exception here for SBC)
Breakin' 1 & 2
Clerks 1 & 2
Cloudy w/ Chance of Meatballs 1 & 2
Conan the Barbarian / Destroyer
Death Race 1, 2 & 3
Grown Ups 1 & 2
Harold & Kumar 1, 2 & 3
I Know What You Did Last Summer 1 & 2
Jackass 1, 2, 3 & 3.5
Meet the Parents / Fockers / 'Lil Fockers
Mad Max 1, 2 & 3 (not the tin boxset)
Naked Gun 1, 2.5 & 33 1/3
National Lampoon's Vacation / Christmas / European / Vegas
The Parent Trap (old & new)
Red 1 & 2
Rush Hour 1, 2 & 3
Smurfs 1 & 2
Step Up 1, 2, 3 & 4 (I'm a sucker for these dance movies)
Stomp the Yard 1 & 2
Three Men and a Baby / Little Girl
Transporter 1, 2 & 3

Yeah, I'm rather predictable (and eclectic) like that. Considering I've seen many of those aforementioned wishlist sets available on DVD, I'm assuming it's just a matter of time 'til we see them on the BD format as well (hopefully)...

Updated with new upcoming WB / Paramount double features. Let me know if anything is missing.

[dryder]

For those of you who buy these multi-packs, would it be possible to update the listings here with information about which of them, if any, came with Ultraviolet codes? I'm a big UV collector, and have heard of some people buying double or triple feature packs, and finding UV codes inside for the movies, even though its not always mentioned on the package.

I want to see a Death Wish triple feature with Death Wish 2/3/4. (The first and last Death Wish are owned by a different studio so a quintuple feature wouldn't be possible)

Rarely do triple or quadruple features ever include digital copies. I can only think of a couple examples and both were in Walmart's $7.88 bin.

Walmart does often force the studios to include digital copies on their double features in that bin, though some studios like Warner Bros. now only include one movie as a digital copy instead of both movies. Sony does provide digital copies for both movies in a double feature.

Sherlock Holmes (2009) / Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

Does this actually exist? I don't see it in the blu-ray.com database or on Amazon.

Hopefully this thread is still being updated. Sadly kinda slow in here lately... Anyway, it looks like the previously unannounced Blade Triple Feature has hit Walmart stores this past week. Here's the BD.com link:

Here's the thread discussing the find, along with some (still unknown) Lionsgate Triple Features purportedly coming out soon too:

Yeah, when I get off work and get home I'll update.

[Matt C.]

Thanks, tgf. I was actually more concerned as to whether there's really been nothing worth updating on these great multi-BDs for the past 4.5 months, than whether you just hadn't updated in a while. Nice of you to keep this thing up though, but very sad if we're to the point that there's nothing to keep up anymore...

The fella who posted in the Blade thread added this picture, which shows one other Triple Feature I don't think I've heard of before, which is Clash of the Titans (original)/Clash of the Titans (remake)/Wrath of the Titans, as seen here:



I don't follow the non-franchised multi sets, so I don't know if there's anything else that's new in these other couple pix he posted, so feel free to peruse 'em if you'd like...
