Field of Dreams: Anniversary Edition.......June 8th (1 Viewer)

[MarcoBiscotti]

Does someone want to sell or trade with me for the bonus disc?

How is it packaged... Is it just in a seperate paper sleeve inside or alongside the case or is it a triple amaray?

Does it come with a slipcover?


Btw, I found a ton of screen captions posted at this site: http://www.laserdisken.dk/html/visva...66261110756069

There's a couple of reviews up if you run a Google search...

Thanks for the heads-up about the bonus disc Eric. Odd that it's at Walmart and not Best Buy.

Sounds like a great disc, but just out of curiosity, are the original trailers included?

Also, on the original disc, wasn't the "isolated score" simply the music that was available on the commercial soundtrack release? I know that's what happened with Legend.

 

[Eric DiPiazza]

No problem. There is mention of the bonus disc on the shrinkwrap in a form of a sticker that says something like "only at Walmart: exclusive bonus disc." The disc comes in one of those cardboard sleeves, and it is shrinkwrapped to the back of the case, (so you can eaisly spot if it is there or not.)The film itself comes in a shiny slipcase. My Walmart charged me $19.99 for it. I see no trailers for this film on any of the 3 discs. Sorry.

 

[MarcoBiscotti]

Thanks for the info Eric.

Does anyone want to help a fellow HTF'r obtain a copy of said exclusive package from Walmart?

I'd be more than happy to fully compensate for the troubles as well as postage, I just really want to make sure I get my hands on a copy!

If anyone's not all that interested in their "bonus disc", I'd be willing to Paypal $8-10 U.S. in exchange for just that disc on it's own...

Those of you who weren't all that concerned and might've picked up your set elsewhere could end up saving 50% if it's selling for $19.99 at Walmart as I'd be willing to compensate for half ($10) for the disc as well as shipping which would be next to nothing considering it's packaged in a small cardboard slip and could probably be sent letter mail..

Any takers??

Eric DiPiazza, I have send you an e-mail.

Wal-Mart is the No. 1 seller of DVDs, director Phil Alden Robinson said in explaining the exclusive deal.

 

[Craig S]

Glad I stopped in here and found out about that WalMart bonus disc. I was going to keep my copy of the older FoD just for the documentary.

Hopefully my WallyWorld will match or beat Best Buy's $15.99 price on the new release.

 

[Sten F]

I would really like to get my hands on this 2-disc set including the Walmart Exclusive Bonus Disc. However, as I live in Copenhagen, Denmark I was hoping someone would be kind enough to help me out.

I would sincerely appreciate it.

 

[Sten F]

Could someone confirm that the 90 minute documentary is not on the Anniversay Edition?

According to DVD Answer the last image on the webpage clearly show the documentary - The Field of Dreams Scrapbook - is on the new edition. We just don´t know how long it is.

 

[Evan S]

Marco and others, I check back with me via PM on Tuesday. I plan to pick this up for myself and there is a Wal-Mart just a couple miles from where I live. I'll see what I come up with.

 

[MarcoBiscotti]

Thanks so much Evan, I'll send you a p.m. tomorrow...

I really appreciate you offering to help and will fully compensate for your time and effort as well as the disc!!!

Thanks a lot!

I'm so confused...

The menu caption posted by Sten indicates the following features:


- Starting Lineup (?)

- From Father To Son

- Daring To Dream (?)

- Pitching A Perfect Game: An Introduction To Bret Saberhagen's Pitching Techniques (?)

- The Field Of Dreams Scrapbook (???)


Out of the above listed, only the "From Father To Son" feature was mentioned as a supplemental on the upcoming set...

The following extras are listed at Amazon but do not appear on the menu screen in question:


- The Diamond in the Husks: A look at the baseball set that still exists

- Galena, Illinois: Pinch Hits for Chisholm, Minnesota - A walk through Moonlight Graham's home town

- A Look Inside Field of Dreams: a new 90-minute documentary on the film

- Bravo's "From Page to Screen: Field of Dreams"

- "Field of Dreams Roundtable"


As well as Trivia and Deleted Scenes which might very well be included on the same disc as the feature...

If in fact, the "Field Of Dreams Scrapbook" is included as the above caption seems to indicate - than what's on the bonus disc being offered through Walmart???

 

[Eric DiPiazza]

I can't see that image, but I know none of that stuff is on the regular 2-disc editon. It is a screen capture from the Walmart bonus disc for sure.

Oh, and Sten I never got your email. I don't know how to get emails sent to me through this site. I tried to get it, but can't seem to. Your better off just sending it directly to my AOL account if you still need to.

 

[MarcoBiscotti]

Thanks for clarifying again Eric, strange that they'd rehash the "Father To Son" bit twice, on the 2-disc set and bonus dvd. The other extras make it an amazing offer though...

I want this bonus disc even more now!

Eric, I have send you a mail through my own mail program.

Looking forward to hear your thoughts.

Okay, here is the screen shot from DVDAnswer:



So, is this menu shot taken from the 2-disc or the Walmart Bonus disc?

 

[Eric DiPiazza]

Yes. That is the menu shot from the Walmart bonus disc.
