I am one who likes a boxset of a film to have all of the films in seperate cases. Hell, even the Chucky Boxset gave them all their cases, albeit, its just the regular editions packaged together, but still. Some of the cases are these:

and most recently taking the plunge....

I'm a fan of the Indy collection, Die Hard, and other collections that have the balls to give us films in standard cases. Besides, they look nicer on DVD shelves. Anybody else feel this way?

I think the real point is... Should anybody actually own Robocop 3 to begin with?

I love digipacks...

....Yeah, im just sharing my opinion, not trying to kill this thread...
Or am I?...
Most likely no.

Well, I like digi packs when it comes to tv shows sometimes. If the show is three discs or less. However, when 24 has 7 discs in a digipack and it folds out forever, it gets a bit much. And to the other poster, the real question is "Should we acknowledge any film after Robocop 1?"

as long as its not more than three or 4 discs its not too bad, like i love my Alien Quadrilogy but the setup is a bit ridonculous..............i dont count the Back to the Future trilogy as a digipak necessarily(idk about you, but my copy is in a three disc-size normal dvd case)

They rerelease the BTTF trilogy at a lower price and in a digipack. I saw it at Wal-Mart the other night. I wonder if the old set is being marked down as well. I might have to look into that....

The marked down one is the same one, just without the booklet. It's still a 3-Disc Amaray case.

I HATE digipaks too, they look good but in terms of keeping the discs in mint condition they wear and tear very easily. I'd much rather all my Trilogies/TV Shows in a Plastic Snap case, amaray preferably.
