Sorry I meant the combo pack. Both were reviewed by Martin Liebman so it really doesn't make sense. I would think it's exactly the same disc.

When I ordered the Batman steels a couple months ago they only came in plastic envelopes. Basically bags. They weren't even padded or anything. Granted the steels were still in good shape. It's kind of a risk though ordering just a steel from them seeing how their packaging isn't that great.

I think it was the 3D version that brought that edition down to 4 instead of 4.5.

I think I'm not explain it right so I put the review stats up. I'm not referring to the the Movie, 3D or Overall ratings. Just the video. It shouldn't have changed in theory but for some reason it did. The Video rating changes for the same 2D blu-ray disc. It's the same reviewer. That's what I'm confused by. Thanks for the help guys.

Combo Pack:
Movie 4.0 of 5
Video 5.0 of 5
Audio 5.0 of 5
Extras 4.5 of 5
Overall 4.5 of 5

3D 3 Disc Version:
Movie 4.0 of 5
Video 4.5 of 5
3D 3.0 of 5
Audio 5.0 of 5
Extras 4.5 of 5
Overall 4.0 of 5

Could it be that the Video ratting is referring to both the 2D and 3D as an overall rating and not specifically to the 2D version?

I think the video rating in the 3D review, refers to the 3D video quality, and the 3D rating refers to the 3D effects/elements quality. That's how I've perceived it, but I guess it needs some clarification.

If that is what it is, it most definitely needs clarification. Very confusing I find it.

the 3D isn't reviewing the 2D disc. it's just reviewing the 3D. and the 3D presentation got a 4.5 out of 5. don't know where you got 3 from?

It's in Bold. 3D got a 3.0 out of 5. Your saying the 4.5 out of 5 is the 3D presentation and not the 2D presentation. Then what's the 3D 3.0 out 5 for?

3D 3 Disc Version:
Movie 4.0 of 5
Video 4.5 of 5
3D 3.0 of 5
Audio 5.0 of 5
Extras 4.5 of 5
Overall 4.0 of 5

Still trying to figure the disc configuration for the BBY steelbook. I've heard conflicting reports.

what are you talking about dude?

you're the one who said 2D extras were on 2D disc. you were the one who thought the UV digital copy had it's own disc.

I had it RIGHT. you confused yourself.
