Troy on DVD

[Glordreen]

Anybody have any news or rumors as to when the release date is. Its gone out of the major theaters, so we should be getting some news soon.

[TheFugitive]

How did this film do at the box office?
It was promoted very heavily prior to its release, and then you just didnt hear anything about it anymore. Honestly I dont even remember it coming out now.
Did it tank badly?

[Mysticlink]

I don't know the exact number. But it seems to be performing like The Last Samurai. Decent domestic number, but big hit oversea. I'm sure it grosses over $450 millions WW by now like TLS.

[Rizor]

I know it hit the $100 mill mark. As said before, it's domestic gross is pretty disappointing but it performed very well over seas.

[droidguy1119]

10/12 is the date it comes out.

[pimpmastersteve]

It made about 130mil. in the u.s.

[poeman]

i wont buy it

[JackBauer]

can't wait.

[Dr. Z]

oct 10 in R4, Odds are ill pick it up (despite the fact i was somewhat dissapointed by it)

[Tara]

I was disappointed by it to. It was not to the standard that i thought it would be. But i will probably get it

[Tornado]

I'll buy it on release date.

[Glordreen]

Thanks for the news guys. I will buy it on the release date.

[droidguy1119]

I might consider renting it, but it just didn't look that good to me. It seemed like a movie that was destined for smaller-scale, and would have been great, but then Warner Brothers wanted another huge-scale LOTR movie, and then the star-studded cast signed on, and the movie was just inflated past its breaking point.

[Glordreen]

So, droidguy, you havent seen Troy?

[Mat]

I might watch it again someday... I won't buy it though.

[fineus fog]

i was disappointed by this movie but will probably give ti a second chance on DVD

[Boro]

i'll probly rent it

Nope, for the reasons I stated above.

[Hitman]

Troy was imo the first great movie of the summer. I'm definitely picking it up.

[glenn01880]

I never saw it but ill probably pick it up when it is released

[Rizor]

I thought Troy was very good as opposed to those who went in expecting an adaptation of the Iliad.

appearance can be very deceiving. you realy should see this movie droidguy.

[true fan11212]

Although I enjoyed the film, I don't think I'll be buying the DVD. It's the exact same feeling I has towards The Last Samurai. I thought the film was pretty good, but I expected it to be fantastic and therefore I was disappointed.

[todd philip]

i think i will buy this, but just to watch the big battles, everything else was so-so

[WuTical]

I liked the movie a lot

will buy it on the first day it comes out

www.dvdanswers.com reports...

Warner has released some early details on Troy which stars Brad Pitt, Eric Bana, Orlando Bloom and Brian Cox. The two-disc set will be available to own this October, and will feature a 2.40:1 anamorphic widescreen transfer and English Dolby Digital 5.1 track. Extras will include an audio commentary with director Wolfgang Petersen and screenwriter David Benioff, a second audio commentary with selected members of the cast, an In the Middle of the Battle documentary, multiple behind the scenes featurettes on the special effects and set design and an interactive 3-D exploration of greek gods and mythology. Completing the package will be a selection of trailers. We'll bring you further details very shortly.

[Mr. Blonde1]

I enjoyed the film... it had its moments. i might pick it up. Eric Bana saved the movie IMO. If he wasn't in it I think this movie would have been a lot worse.

[awwww shoot]

From the second I heard about Troy, I knew it would be the most hyped-up, trend-following, Hollywood piece of **** ever.

[Boro]

i'll probly rent it

[IanTheCool]

this was not a great movie at all, not DVD worthy. it really disappointed me. A great story like the trojan war deserves better tahn to be stripped down and hollywoodized like this one was.

[Tornado]

I'll buy it, I liked it.

[Orlando_Fan89]

all the stuff from dvdanswers.com is like for R2 and overseas stuff nothing for the US

[UnicornBlood3]

I'll most likely get it. I liked it a lot.

[Inferno]

I was disappointed by it to. It was not to the standard that i thought it would be. But i will probably get it

See, I don't get this. If you were disappointed by a movie, why would you buy it on DVD?

[Glordreen]

I liked it. Therefore, I will buy it!!

Isnt t coming out on October 12th?

[FaceOff]

Good Movie. I will be picking this up on dvd. One of the better movies of the Summer. Maybe I enjoyed it so much because I wasn't expecting much.

[Elessar504]

IGN now says January 2005 for Troy DVD

[Rizor]

Check out this cool wooden box from Region 3:

Whoa, that totally kicks ass.

[reggie]

Sexy :P

[Highfire]

sweet box

[Hitman]

pretty cool

[TheKing88]

I wish we could get that in R1. I missed this in theatres, do you think it would be worth a blind buy?

Yes.

[Mr. Blonde1]

I'd say rent it first. Troy is a love it or hate it type film.

[Rizor]

I find it helps if the person doesn't expect an adaptation of the Iliad when they see it. Think more along the lines of these are supposed to be the actual events that inspired the story (hence no gods, etc).

[Rizor]

Also, apparently all those Limited Edition boxes are sold out (or so I've heard) in case you were hoping to import. :)

[padawan331]

This movie is awesome i cant wait too buy it
