This steelbook is one of the nicest I own. The front cover's picture fits the movie perfectly! Kudos to Disney for another stellar Marvel release!

I was hoping for Apple to announce a 128 GB version of it's popular music player, but October came and went, and nothing was announced. I went ahead and reluctantly purchased this one. While the storage is not enough for my collection, the device is just about perfect. I am moving over from a FIRST GEN iPod Touch 8 GB! This is a beautiful music player that looks and feels just about perfect!

what a surprise!

I was in my local store a few weeks ago and came across this in the music section. It was the only copy and I had no prior knowledge that this was going to be released. As a fan of Bjork, I purchased it without hesitation and was floored at the material included. The A/V presentation was top notch and looked sweet on my 60" LG LCD television.

excellent film and beautiful A/V presentation!

I wasn't surprised that this film was so good! But since this review is for the Blu ray, I'll comment on the disc itself. The audio (7.1 DTS-HD MA) is outstanding! Video is amazing as well. Exactly what I would have expected for a current film, especially one by David Fincher. Packaging is solid for this one as well, and sits well next to Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and Social Network.

Should've purchased this one before the HP
on August 3, 2013
Posted by: Italy12
from Apex, NC
I use it for:Document printing
I originally purchased an HP 3510 just to use while our normal printer was in storage. We needed it just to print out documents related to our new jobs, etc. The HP was returned the next day, and this one was purchased in its place. It has been great, and will replace our normal printer as our family's primary one. Quality for a printer under $100 is great, and even though it only has one ink cartridge for color, the quality on photos was outstanding.

This blend of science fiction and juvenile delinquency films has a widescreen (anamorphic) transfer with an aspect ratio of 1.66:1. The English-only audio track is in Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono and the subtitles are available in English only. The print itself shows minor pixelation and fade, but overall the Deluxe color is stunning. There is a choice of two indexed commentary tracks. One features producer Jack Harris and film historian Bruce Eder. The other features the director Irvin S. Yeaworth Jr. and actor Robert Fields. Both have some pauses in dialogue, but their easygoing styles make them equally enjoyable. An anamorphic theatrical trailer is available. The feature section "Blob-abilia" found in the animated menu is a treasure chest of stills from the collection of Blob enthusiast Wes Shank. This is an attractive package that oozes some nice extras.

Criterion knocks it out of the park again!
on May 16, 2013

Another gem from Criterion! The Blob is a classic sci-fi film about a small town overrun by a seemingly mindless blob who consumes inanimate and animate objects while growing in size as it does! A teenage Steve McQueen (of Bullitt fame) stars as the young punk who muct warn others and stop The Blob from destroying the entire town!

A devastating take on the senseless murders that shocked the nation, director Richard Brooks adaptation of the Truman Capote novel arrives on DVD in fine form from Columbia/TriStar. Presented in 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen, the black-and-white image is crisp and clear of any notable artifacting or digital distortion -- effectively retaining the stunning composition of cinematographer Conrad Hall's widescreen lens. A newly remastered English Dolby Digital Surround track brings also brings the film to life as never before experienced on home video. Aside from Quincy Jones' compelling score, the audio is remarkably clean and powerful for a film of this age. Directional effects are subtle but effective, and vocals are clear of any distortion or hiss. In addition to optional English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, and Thai subtitles, English closed captioning is also available. Though the only extras to speak of are lamentably a quartet of mostly unrelated trailers, a trailer from the original release of In Cold Blood offers some interesting facts concerning the film. Regardless as to how one feels about such little bonus material being offered on a film with such a well-documented history, the presentation of the film itself is to be commended, with the final product packing as much impact in the new millennium as it did when released over 30-years ago.

Classic atmospheric horror based on Capote's novel
on May 16, 2013
Posted by: Italy12
from Hickory, NC
The Blu ray of Truman Capote's In Cold Blood story looks and sounds wonderful in 1080p. Based on a real life event about a prominent Kansas farmer and his family being murdered 'in cold blood' for money is as shocking today as it was in the 60's, when the events depicted in the film rocked the little town of Holcomb and its surround areas.

I purchased this game when it came out, and I haven't been able to put it down since! The gameplay is a bit improved from the first game in the series, and I found the online component works a little better as well.

Fincher's early masterpiece...

Michael Douglas, trapped in a frenetic game of shadows, is brilliant as Nicholas Van Orton, as he tries to figure out whether he's involved in a "game" or involved in a cerebral journey to the deepest depths of the unknown.

Stopped working after 3 months
By lkd123 from New York, NY
Stopped working after 3 months. I would not purchase this product again. I called customer service at Best Buy and they said they only take returns after 30 days- so it looks like i'm going to need to buy another coffee maker. Horrible customer service and an awful return policy. A coffee maker should work for at least 6months to a year...would never purchase a "Mr. Coffee" product again.

Best Buy is not responsible for the product working or not working. They simply sell the product. Their return policy is the same no matter what items you buy. They sell something called a protection plan, which is optional, and nobody seems to ever want one because they are a perceived scam. Well, you needed one!
The manufacturer also has a limited warranty for, most likely, one year. Did you look into that? Before you blame the retailer, look at all of your options. Technology, whether a computer, tablet, TV, appliance, etc. are not all 100% perfect. Some people get good products, some people don't.

Not the 2006 remake.
By Nickool
I ordered this movie online only because Best Buy has it listed as the 2006 remake. It's not, in fact it's a more expensive version of the 1978 Blu Ray copy.
So if you are looking for the 2006 remake on Blu Ray, this isn't it, and if you want the 1978 version then order the cheaper one from Best Buy. I'm not sure what makes this one so special.

why so expensive, you ask?

It is the Scream Factory version, which has a lot of extras and usually, with Scream Factory, there is usually an upgrade in picture quality, depending on the film's source or if any restoration/clean-up work was done on the film. Scream Factory (an imprint of Shout! Factory) releases usually go for about $20-$30 depending on where you buy them.
