2 'HELLRAISER' PUZZLE BOX DVD SETS

I'm a sucker for packaging so its not surprising these two dvd box sets caught my eye:

Above is for regular DVDs of the first 3 'Hellraiser' films. Why anyone would want 'Hellraiser III' is beyond me, but to each their own.

This is the Blu Ray set, which includes the only 2 Hellraiser films you need: 'HELLRAISER' and 'HELLBOUND: HELLRAISER II'.

Halloween is around the corner, so what better excuse to buy a Puzzle Box dvd set!

COLORFUL ALIEN SAGA PACKAGING

Saw these at the store the other day...
it was like an Aliens Skittles shelf of color!

I kind of wish all 4 images were from the same angle...
side or 1/4, which are the best angles IMO.

ALIEN ANTHOLOGY BLU RAY PT 2

Hey, so FOX has released pics of their upcoming ALIEN ANTHOLOGY BLU RAY SET. I had posted before on my displeasure with their packaging (here) so logic dictates FOX reads JimSmash and made the appropriate changes just for me. There's simply no other possible explanation.

Anyway, the Alien on the Egg is no longer the shitty Resurrection Version, but is now the Warrior Version from ALIENS, my favorite! The egg itself still remains the Resurrection Egg, tho (sigh). I had said before I was going to skip buying the big ole package deal cause I didn't like the Alien sculpt... but now, I may have to buy it. Cause ya know, I'm a big ole dork.

Quick side note: What's with the weird artwork inside?

BONUS: FOX will have at the San Diego Comic Con a life-size replica of the NOSTROMO "Hibernation Chambers". You'll be able to get in them and have your picture taken, too! Below is concept image of what it will look like, but there will only 4 pods. I plan on wearing my Ripley Underwear in one of them for a sweet JimSmash Bumper Pic.
*thanks for the info, Willie!

BLURAY ALIENS ANTHOLOGY PACKAGING

As the World collectively holds its excited breath for the ALIENS ANTHOLOGY BLURAY DVD RELEASE, Fox has shown us some hints at the nifty packaging, which is pretty cool.

A few thoughts:

1) "Anthology"? I guess they took too much flack for "Quadrilogy".... from what I've read, this new set includes the same 4 movies as the Quadrilogy set.

2) That QUEEN image... I think its a pic of SIDESHOW COLLECTIBLES' statue.
3) Love the EGG packaging with the ALIEN wrapped around it. But what the F?! They use the Egg, Alien & font from frickin' ALIEN: RESURRECTION? It's the worst Alien movie of the series (excluding the dreadful 2 AVP turds, which I do not acknowledge). Hey, I give you A+ for Effort... but a big ole RED "F" for execution. So much so, I won't be shelling out the money for this deluxe set. Why would I? So I can have a piece of poop Alien Resurrection "statue" buried in the back of my closet? No thanks. I'll just pick up ALIEN and ALIENS individually.
