Got my copy yesterday.

The cash manager unknowingly and most likely, accidentally, placed 4 Blu-ray and DVD copies of it on the cash counter where other Blu-ray and DVD movies are displayed. I promptly bought my copy. Today at work, I noticed it had been pulled.

Not the first time this happened --- the same thing happened with Green Lantern.

I wish we got the other cover for our steelbook, like most countries got (the cover with Spider-man crawling on a skyscraper).

Found this unboxing video with figurine from Australia

The Amazing Spider Man 3D Blu Ray & I Robot 3d Sunny Bust - YouTube

Only the suit is embossed.

Does anyone on here possibly know how long the Target Exclusive featurette is at the moment? If it's a long documentary like The Avengers Target Exclusive then I'll buy it, but if it's just a small 10-15 minute making-of featurette then I'll pass.

Best Buy finally dropped the price of the Amazing Spider-Man Steelbook to $ 27.99. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/3D-BD-AM...661&st=amazing spider-man&lp=4&cp=1

Edword · 11-01-2012, 09:47 AM

Now if they can just add in-store pick up I'll go ahead and order.

How safe and secure is Best Buy's packaging if you order it for free shipping? I don't want to pay for a steelbook if it's going to arrive in horrendous shape.

This will have been my first time ordering from them so I wouldn't know.

Watched this last night. I didn't find it too dark at all. The picture and sound quality were great and I loved the story way more than the previous attempt. Andrew Garfield did a great job capturing Peter Parker's personality. I liked that it was more awkward and less nerdy. And Emma Stone was great as always.

cvargo · 11-01-2012, 04:02 PM

I really like this spider man better than the Toby ones. Glad to see the price is at 19.99

remake · 11-01-2012, 04:26 PM

Why must the new blu-ray artwork be so generic? Does the 3-D version have anything better than the 2-D? I like that artwork better.

bandit29 · 11-01-2012, 04:35 PM

Gonna be a blind buy for me. Didn't get a chance to see this in the theater. My friends said I'll like it. Steelbook or maybe that gift set with figures for me

In a word, atrocious.

Are you kidding? Do you know how awesome it is that The US is getting a version that FS and UK are NOT? This is an awesome opportunity to get some good trades with other countries.

Well, that settles that. I have RZ certificates, so I'll order for In-store pickup when it becomes available -- although the way they manhandle those, I'm not sure that will be any better.

snsguy · 11-01-2012, 05:28 PM

Not sure why the single Blu-ray got a 5 out of 5 on video quality and the 3 disc Blu-ray with the 2D got a 4.5 out 5. Anyone know why that would be?

I don't see a review for the single disc. I see the 3D got 4.5/5 and the combo pack a 5/5. The 3D got a 3.0/5 for 3D. I assume the difference is it was done by different reviewers?
