Posts: 370		Well Hannibal is a must-buy for me but, as long as the anthology isnt missing extras and has excellent PQ and AQ, I will go for the anthology more than likely. I love Hannibal, its a hidden gem, and obviously Manhunter and Silence of the Lambs are excellent films too.

I really really hope theyve done a good job on that Hannibal transfer...

These films are not owned by MGM but by Universal and the Weinstein Company respectively. Therefore, if you're expecting a box set that contains all five film, you're going to be waiting for a very long time. Like forever.

Posts: 35		The press release for Child's Play is confusing. "Chucky’s Thoughts", "The Advantages of Being Chucky", "Chucky on Filmmaking" and "Up Close and Personal with Chucky" are part of the select scene Chucky commentaries. "The Birth of Chucky", "Creating the Horror" and "Unleashed - Chucky: Building a Nightmare" are part of the "Evil Comes in Small Packages" making of documentary. And "Chucky’s Back Bitches", "Designer Toy" and "Evil Comes in Little Packages" are the names of the easter eggs found on the dvd. So, no new special features for the blu-ray.
