Holloway, to me they are a disappointing set of features. I'm talking about expectations here, as is everyone else at this point. No I haven't seen them...but that has nthing to do with whether or not I can be disappointed by them. I'd rather have a meaty and in-depth documentary, in the style of what was included with the Blade Runner blu ray for example, than a lot of short featurettes.
Also, the news item said it was the complete list of all the special features - there are no more features for Alien to be announced and it would imply that previously seen special features aren't to be included. If what's on this list is to supplement rather than replace what had previously been released on DVD then fantastic, it's shaping up to be an excellent package
At the end of the day I'll be buying this for the upgrade in audio/video quality - a bare bones package with nothing but the movie would've been a guarenteed buy from me, but it's always nicer to get a little extra, right?
I'm a massive Alien fan - it's one of the first few films I can remember having ever seen and at an age where I was far too young to be watching such a thing really
But does that mean I'll be excited about absolutely anything at all to do with the series, regardless of it's quality? No. Perhaps if you were a "true fan" yourself you'd care more about quality than quantity and not feel the need to qusetion the "true"-ness of others loyalties. Food for thought.
