Warner Home Video have announced a 3-disc limited edition set for the movie 300. It will include all the shiznit involved in the previous 2-disc release, but will add a third disc with:

a new documentary ("To The Hot Gates: A Legend Retold") which provides a comprehensive and dynamic description of the process filmmakers followed to take an ancient legend through a graphic novel and finally realizing it as a feature film. In addition there is a bonus Digital Copy of the film, a 52-page hardcover art book with a personal message from director Zack Snyder, and a lucite display with motion film image and six collectible photo cards.

Will people buy this? I don't know. I'm a double/triple/quadruple dip moron, so I'm definitely in. I buy every-freaking-thing, but that's just me. Although it makes me proud to count five copies of BEFORE SUNSET (mostly gifts) on my DVD case, but none of those piece of shit spoof movies. The special features on those things could be footage of fights between Scarlett Johansson and a penis and I'd still only pick them up if they were in the bargain bin.

LET ME START BY
Saying, that i personally was exited to see 300 in theaters. i saw it opening day at imax in city walk, surprisingly i saw Seth rogan their, at the time, i just knew him as the guy from the 40 year old virgin. Ok, when i walked out, i dident feel like it was a great movie, im not saying it was terrible, but it was not good, or great. I have to draw the line somewhere, with all the quotes people...

Ok, when i walked out, i dident feel like it was a great movie, im not saying it was terrible, but it was not good, or great. I have to draw the line somewhere, with all the quotes people are coming out of the theaters saying, and an over hyped movie at that, i can care less for something like this. This movie has seemed to get outa hand, and if their is something that is overrated, well, its this movie. I have a co-worker that for the last year and a half has been reciting lines from the movie like it came out 10 minutes ago. It was an ok movie, but now 300 has turned into this marketing monster that soon may take over the western hemisphere if not kept on check. This is ludicrous!! Gosh Darnit, i will vote for obama if it means no more talk about 300. R.I.P 300, you where never like brave heart, no more than paris hilton being a vegetarian,or lil wayne actually playing the guitar...

Wow, I don't know what to say... not about the 300 thing, that sounds fine... but what is this cloning thing by Sergal? WHAT IS THAT? I don't know if it is supposed to be funny or scary or what, but it sure is entertaining. Oh, oh, and interesting too. Oh, oh, and weird. It's weird, too.

Original person is very nice(not d**n sexy),most important-CHRISTIAN young lady!I'll tell you more,those clones(it's not only one)made in GERMANY-world leader manufacturer of humans clones,it is in Ludwigshafen am Rhein,N. Bavaria, Mr. Helmut Kohl home town.You can't even imaging the scale of the cloning activity.But warning! H. Kohl clone staff 100% controlling their clones spreading around the world,they are very accurate with that, some of them are still NAZI type disciplined and mind controlled clones,be careful get close with clones you will be controlled too.Original family did not authorize any activity with stolen biological materials,no matter what form it was created,it all needs back to original family control to Cedars-Sinai MedicalCenter in LA.Original Scarlett is not engage,by the way!

I feel bad...
That you have so many copies of BEFORE SUNSET...



1- You have lame, probably pretentious friends.



2- Why not trade them in?

AWWWW DAMN!
Welcome to the Age of The Third Disc, folks. It used to be rare, but I guess it's picking up pace now. Incredible Hulk...300...what next...The Dark Knight Special 3 Disc Edition With 20 Minutes Of Extra Joker Scenes? Special Edition Three-Disc Iron Man With Cameo From Spider-Man? Hehe...I already have the 2-Disc 300 DVD at home...but I guess temptation and that uber-cool artwork will drive me...

Hehe...I already have the 2-Disc 300 DVD at home...but I guess temptation and that uber-cool artwork will drive me to spend some savings on this edition as well. *sigh*. And yes, I remember the first time I saw the teaser. It was like falling in love for the first time.

me likee...
gotta go against the flow here, i loved 300, it was visually stunning, and a blu-ray version of this, with the "bladerunner" treatment (a top notch dvd package) is a must for the collector.



sell your old one, if youre a true film buff, this is the one to own.



and fuck you, hollywood, for this incessant double and triple dipping shit, do it right the first time...

Double OH 3?
I still haven't finished watching this flick. Eye candy? Perhaps. But all the slow mo gets boring really vast. I'd rather pop on something with more substance.

300, 300 disc collectors edition dvd
Really? who is going to buy this? I bet it's at least $100+, personally I hate DVD re-releases especially these big expensive box sets, why not just realease the film in all the versions you can think of on it's original release date and not re-release the film every few months with "extra" stuff included? just to get people to waste their money on a film they already have? I agree with all...

I agree with all below when they say this film wasn't even that good it's more visually entertaining than actual plot and story put together.

I share your pain of idiotic buying tendencies. If you'll excuse me, I have to go watch one of my 6 releases of Evil Dead now.

The movie wasn't good enough to deserve this edition. I 'liked' it at best, but I gotta agree with the below comments. It's tough to watch straight through.

While I probably won't buy this edition, since I'm not the biggest 300 fan around here...I would much rather own 5 different copies of 300 than 1 copy of a POS like Disaster movie or any of the other shitty spoofs.

Im with ZombieFlanders...
It was beautifully shot but extremly boring. I have sat through this movie once on opening day and I've tried to give it a second chance but it was working I still thought it was extremly boring. I didn't waste my money on the single disc, so I won't be wasting my money on this one!!!

Yawn. Personally, I thought 300 was a beautifully shot but powerfully BORING movie. I have yet to be able to sit through it all the way. I don't see what the hype was all about. It certainly doesn't deserve a super duper 12 disk collectors edition. Waste of money.
