Excellent stuff Ekent!

I am getting really excited about getting my hands on this one!

Even with so much great stuff coming out next month, this is one of the most highly anticipated.

Now if it was just August 19th already...

Man, it's in a fucking cardboard thing. Looks like the "Bub" on the cover is diecut out and wraps around the front. Ugh. And where does the "notebook" fit in? Doesn't look like we get a slipcase.

What the hell's wrong with fucking keepcases?

Packaging looks bad but it's still a must buy.

Mortis · 07-21-2003, 10:18 AM

I'd have to see the actual packaging to form an opinion.

It definitely looks like it's gonna be a great release, but I hope these dialogue changes I keep hearing about aren't too distracting. Some of the best lines in horror history came from this film.

Give me this baby NOW!

I know a lot of people on here like Dawn A lot more then Day, but for me Day is the better film.

I've watched Day many times and I'll probably notice the changes easily. In one review they changed Sarah's words when watching Bub eating bodyparts.

With my faves, I hate changes. Still not used to the new ROTLD.

Day is great the way it was. Why did AB do this?

BloodMan · 07-21-2003, 07:55 PM

I think the notebook fits in between the casing. Grrr!!! Its like that "Legend" set. Anyway, I will definitely have to get this.

I really dislike that cover tho.

I love the cover, I only hope that the new Dawn cover is similar to the original VHS cover art.

Grim · 07-21-2003, 08:42 PM

I always though that cover was neat too. That would be nice though if they could get the original poster art for each of the versions of Dawn of the Dead in the dvd set.

Mortis · 07-22-2003, 12:51 AM

One of these years we'll get to see.

After reading the review it soumds like they used part of the Japanese LD for some of the audio track. I'm glad AB is releasing this film, but it would have been nice for them to use the actual audio track. AB has got a ba habit of doing things like this. I love 'em, but come on guys...
