"OT?: Hellboy promo DVD free w/purchase"
, posted Fri 12 Mar 12:42
Just got back from my lunchbreak run to Best Buy: they have a Hellboy Movie promotional DVD, free with purchase (buy a CD, DVD, game, piece of software, etc.). The DVD has film highlights, behind-the-scenes footage, and theatrical and TV trailers. Haven't had the chance to watch it yet (stuck at work til 5), but I'm told it also has a Spider-Man 2 movie trailer.
Just wanted to give a heads-up to anyone who hadn't heard about the offer.

My friend's parents bought "The Ten Commandments" there and got the Hellboy promo DVD.

I wish I heard of this 5 hours ago when I went to go get Twin Snakes. Oh well, I am going to see Hellboy anyway so I guess it really doesn't matter, but it would have been cool anyway. Anyways I got a free memory card that I really needed so all is good.

it looks cool but wheres that guy who was in the comic who was the uh gollum or whatever? Roger the Homonculus? Also in the comic his horns more closely resembled goggles when they were short so that was the big surprise when they actually grew. i think they were supposed to be black or something.

I got it when I picked up the third Futurama DVD set.
If you don't need to buy a game/CD/DVD during the offer's run you're not missing out... I'm certain everything included will be on the real DVD (and maybe even the entire 'featurette'?) but it does have a lot of trailers... the long and short Hellboy trailers, Spider-man 2, 13 going on 30 (?), Secret Window, and Resident Evil:Apocolypse (I hate trailers that think they're "clever" pretending to be ads) and some DVD trailers too I didn't watch.
I hope the movie is actually good... if looks like a lot of fun in the trailers.
This picture is unusally orange no?

For everyone who got it, is there behind the scenes stuff in the physical effects studio (spectral motion)? My ex worked on the movie, so...that'd be cool.

I loved the RE:A trailer because it pretended to be an advert. When we first saw the trailer in the theater a few months ago, only about 5% of the audience reacted to the mention of the Umbrella Corporation. The couple behind us bitched all the way thru the trailer about how "commercials are bad enough before a movie -- why do they have to stick them in between the trailers?" It was nice to have 95% of the audience feel stupid.

heh. If I felt that way, I'd feel nice all the time. Movie audiences are damn ignorant in my area.

well to each his own then. I can see your point to why the trailer works and respect that.
But it could have been done better... the trailer for "Eternal Sunshine On A Spotless Mind" works very well as it's an actual product/service in the movie that is critical to the plot... does Umbrella even make cosmetics? (in the games, in the movies, it don't matter... but do they?)
