Spider-Man (2002) / Spider-Man 2 (2004) / Spider-Man 3 (2007) - DVD Set

Three great Blu ray Films thoroughly enjoyed them and the price was a bargin. Highly recommend.

I'm not going to do a traditional review for this set: it looks great, it sounds great, it's dirt-cheap, and that's pretty much all you need to know. Other reviews will go into more detail about these things. What I AM going to do here is clear up a bit of confustion regarding the special features and whatnot. While the backs of the individual Blu-ray cases seem to list all of the extras, they are NOT complete and do not mention several of the extras that are actually on the discs. The reviews on here listing the features are just taken from the backs of the boxes, so hopefully this will make everything clear. So, without further ado, here's the full list. (All special features are from the original 2-disc DVDs unless stated otherwise.) SPIDER-MAN Spider Sense Trivia Challenge (Blu-ray exclusive) Spider-Man Cutting Room (Blu-ray exclusive) Commentary by Filmmakers and Cast Commentary by Visual Effects Designer and Crew Commentary by Tobey Maguire and J.K. Simmons (previously only available on the Region 1 "Superbit" DVD release, making it the first time this commentary has been released in Europe) Spider-Man: The Mythology of the 21st Century documentary HBO Making of Spider-Man "Spider-Mania" - an E! Entertainment Special Director & Composer Profiles Behind the Scenes of Spider-Man (7 featurettes previously only available on the 3-disc Deluxe Edition DVD from 2004) Webisodes (previously only available via multi-angle branching on the original DVD; they are presented here as separate features) Screen Tests Gags & Outtakes Music Videos TV Spots Original Theatrical Trailer SPIDER-MAN 2 / SPIDER-MAN 2.1 (original availability of extras in parenthesis) Commentary by Cast & Crew (2) Technical Commentary (2) Commentary by Laura Ziskin & Alvin Sargent (2.1) Blooper Reels (2) Hero in Crisis featurette (2) Ock-Umentary - 8 Arms to Hold You featurette (2) Making the Amazing - A 12 Part Documentary (2) VFX Breakdowns (2.1) SPIDER-MAN 3 Commentary with Director & Cast Filmmakers' Commentary Bloopers Photo Galleries Music Video "Signal Fire" by Snow Patrol Trailers SO WHAT'S MISSING? Even though this set contains more extras than at first glance, it still doesn't contain everything from the DVDs, so you may want to hang on to those if you already have them. SPIDER-MAN The first film by far fares the best in terms of retention of extras, and both of the features it loses are pretty disposeable: "Weaving the Web" Trivia Track Peter Parker's Darkroom: Photo Gallery SPIDER-MAN 2 / SPIDER-MAN 2.1 Spider-Man 2.1 takes a big hit in the extras department, with most of its features MIA, plus a few strange omissions from the original Spider-Man 2 release: Interwoven: The Women of Spider-Man featurette (2) [considering the other two featurettes from SM2 were included, this is a particularly glaring omission] Spidey Sense 2 Trivia Track (2 and 2.1) Webisodes (2) "Enter the Web" multi-angle feature (2) Theatrical Trailer (2) Photo Gallery (2) Inside 2.1 documentary (2.1) With Great Effort Comes Great Recognition featurette (2.1) Villains of Spider-Man 3 Featurette (2.1) Multi-Angle Score (2.1) Spider-Man 3 Sneak Peek featurette (2.1) SPIDER-MAN 3 The biggest loss from the DVDs and the previous Blu-ray trilogy set from 2007 is the bonus disc of Spider-Man 3, which contains the majority of that film's extras, which leaves the one in this set pretty sparse in the bonuses department (though this is sort-of made up for by the inclusion of extras on the other 2 films unlike the 2007 trilogy). I'm not going to list all of the features that aren't on here, since I'd just be listing the contents of the second disc; suffice to say it's a lot. The first disc even says "Feature Disc" when you boot it up, and the disc itself reads "Feature Film"; obviously Disc 1 of the 2-disc set has just been stuck in a new case without its other half. However, if you're desperate to have all of the special features on Blu-ray, you can now get the original release of SM3 for around 2 quid used, so it's really not a big deal. You can even physically place the "hinge" from the old case in the new one so that your shiny new Spider-Man 3 Blu-ray is a complete 2-disc set once again and give the spare movie disc/case to a friend, like I did. IN THE END... I was tempted to knock a star off of this review for the pointless exclusion of the Spider-Man 3 bonus disc, but for this price, and the host of new-to-Blu extras for the first two films, it's hard to complain. If you're an extras nut then it'll literally cost you pennies to get that disc separately if you so desire. Three great films, one great price, if you have a Blu-ray player and you like Spider-Man then this is a no-brainer. I hope you found this review helpful. 'Nuff said!

My set just arrived a short while ago, so I thought I'd share my opinions and such. The box that all the cases are in is really nice. It's thin cardboard, but does the job well. As you can see, it says "Spider-Man Trilogy" with half of his face as the attraction. The text and the all the web lines are raised which is a good touch. The spine and the top text is flat. Over on the back, slightly odd here - It has the Blu-Ray covers of the previous release, and yet the ones included here that you get are totally different. The cases... The front artwork on each is what I would call amateur and looks kind of rushed. First film has half of Spider-Man and Goblin's face either side, it says "Spider-Man" at the top and then a massive "1" at the bottom. Why is the 1 needed? The film is just called 'Spider-Man'. Same with part two and three. Spider-Man 2 has Doc Ock and Spider-Man, one on each side, just like the final film has Spider-Man and Dark Spider-Man's face eiter side. Each film also has a massive 2 or 3 at the bottom. All three cases also have a solid blue background. The inside casing and the back of each case has some really nice artwork which makes up for the front covers. Even though I would prefer the original front art from the previous releases, but I don't spend much time looking at front covers really. So I'm pretty much over it the moment I opened the box. The discs have some nice art on them too. Labelled "Spider-Man", "2" and "3". One and two have a similar picture on them, of a close up of part of the suit, where the third has the symbiote starting to take over. Audio wise, a few people have already mentioned that the specs on the box/cases are slightly off to what you actually get, so I won't ramble on about that. There just seems to be some unfortunate errors made here that weren't checked before it was put it to mass production. It's something most can probably easily get over. With amazing audio and stunning video quality on this set it's impossible to argue with £9.97 brand new! I'm very pleased I got my hands on it! Just like when I got the X-Men Quadrioligy from Amazon for £10 - brilliant set at a bargin price. This is probably on offer because of the upcoming film, 'The Amazing Spider-Man', so it might not stay at £10 for much longer. Hurry!

Brilliant, I loved the nostalgia of watching this again, there's something about dvd quality that I just love!

I am a big comic book movie fan and as a result needed to get this collection. Having seen Spiderman 1 & 2 on dvd a group of us went to our local cinema to see the third installment to mixed reviews. Skip forward a couple of years and the invention of blu ray and I had to get this. The movies themselves vary Spiderman is the beginning and so we learn how mild teen Peter Parker becomes the web slinger of myth. We meet his love interest his best friend and his nemesis The Green Goblin. There is also a brilliant cameo from the late Randy "Macho Man" Savage as Bonesaw the wrestler a budding spiderman battles in an attempt to get cash. Special effects are plentiful and some scenes are pretty good the last twenty minutes being a good example. But some of the distance shots do not hold up as well as I would have thought this may be because Blu ray is simply to clear for the effects I dont know either way Spiderman gets a 4.5 out of 5. In Spiderman 2 we see Parker battling with his duel indenitites and having to battle the brilliant Dr Octopus. The effects in this movie seem a little sharper and with origin story already covered its just two hours of fun as Spiderman and Doc Oc battle in all areas of the city. For me the best of the bunch and Spiderman 2 get 5 out of 5. Spiderman 3 I believe suffers from the success of the prievious two movies. The plot for the movie is way too complicated. Had it have been left at merely Spiderman and the battle with himself and his black suited version it would have been pretty good but instead of leaving it as ultimatley Spiderman vs Venom we get bad guy overlaod in the form of the Sandman and the New Goblin neither of which were really needed. It seems with Spiderman 3 they just attempted to tie up loose ends. The best friend becomes the Goblin the girl he always wanted he seems to just throw away and the black suit which is supposed to make the hero cocky and a little evil in is pursuits seemingly does nothing else apart from enable him to dance. The final battle is exatly as I saw it at the cinema way too fast with way too much going on. Its difficult to see whats going on and at times it actually made me feel a little nautious. In short the movie lets down the set and gets just 3 out of 5. In closing the boxset is good not great. Mostly it is the bad guys is these movies that make you watch Green Goblin and Dr Octopus are two brilliant Marvel villians and once in the suit Maguire is a fairly good Spiderman some of the effects dont look as good as they could but its enjoyable and a must for any superhero fan. With the franchise reboot now here it will be a brilliant comparison. Features are good box set is good value for money and hopefully this review is useful.

Now have all of them, all three of the Toby spiderman for a good price

This six disc set is the only one to collect together all of the extra features that appeared on the three original Spiderman movies, and because of that it soars over this Spider-Man Trilogy Deluxe Box Set [DVD ], which despite including the slightly extended Spiderman 2.1 junks all of the original extras from that film in favour of a few new bits mostly aimed at promoting the then new Spiderman 3. This set even beats the supposedly superior Blu Ray boxes. To gain all the extras on that format you need to own both box sets; the first was issued at the time of Spiderman 3, and only has extras for that film. A second set issued a few years later did feature extras for Spidey 1 & #2, whilst ignoring #3 - a real rip-off! The packaging is quite simple; a slim cardboard outer case houses the three original double DVD's of Spiderman (2002), Spiderman 2 (2004) and Spiderman 3 (2007). The extras include (deep breath here) commentaries from cast, director, crew and producers for all three movies, making of documentaries and plenty of feature-ettes on all aspects of the film-making. There are also features on the history of Spiderman comics, across the board interviews and features, and music videos. In fact more enough stuff to satisfy any fan of the worlds favourite web slinger! Spiderman also features DVD Rom material on both discs, but you'll need a well-oiled PC running Windows 95 or higher to view any of these features. Many require an internet connection, and the idea of using a computer that old on-line in 2012 is... well it's just a no-go. I did however manage to run an animated Spiderman screen saver, which is pretty good. Despite that, this is an excellent VFM set of the movies that arguably kick-started the now hugely successful Marvel cine-universe franchise.

Brought to complete my collection. As expected, no issues.

LA trilogie indispensable !

Muy buenas peliculas en una gran calidad Bluray, tambien incluyen contraportadas al reverso de las cajas muy geniales.

Rezension bezieht sich auf das UHD-BD Set: Film Infos: USA, Jahr 2002, 2004, 2007 Laufzeit: 121 min, 136 min, 139 min Erfolg: Teil 1: Kosten 139 Mio $, weltweites Kinoeinspiel: 821 Mio. $ (nicht inflationsbereinigt) Teil 2: Kosten 200 Mio $, weltweites Kinoeinspiel: 783 Mio. $ (nicht inflationsbereinigt) Teil 3: Kosten 258 Mio $, weltweites Kinoeinspiel: 890 Mio. $ (nicht inflationsbereinigt) Von Sony Regie: Sam Raimi Hauptrollen: Tobey Maguire Kirsten Dunst, William Dafoe, James Franco, J.K. Simmons, Alfred Molina, Thomas Haden Church, Topher Grace, Bryce Dallas Howard, James Cromwell, Theresa Russell, Bruce Campbell, Elizabeth Banks geschrieben wurden übrigens alle drei Teile u.a. vom kürzlich verstorbenen Stan Lee. Jetzt wurden diese Spider-Man Filme im Laufe der Jahre von Sony in allen möglichen Formen immer wieder veröffentlicht. Vom zweiten Teil gibt es sogar eine veränderte Fassung, die unter dem Titel Spider-Man 2.1 veröffentlicht wurde und selbst der dritte Teil hat es zu einer anderen Schnittfassung gebracht: dem sogenannten „Editor’s Cut“. 2013 gab es dann sogar noch eine Edition: mastered in 4k, mit der Sony den ohnehin qualitativ hohen Anspruch der BD Releases noch einmal steigern konnte. Im Sommer 2017 veröffentlichte Sony die drei Filme erneut, unter dem Titel: Spider-Man Trilogie Origins. u.a. gab es ein Digi-Book mit den drei Blu-rays. Diese VÖ, wie auch die normale Amaray, ist weitestgehend ein Repack der bereits erhältlichen BDs. Ebenso das beinhaltete Bonus Material ist zuvor schon erhältlich gewesen. Meiner Meinung nach handelt es sich hierbei um die VÖs von 2012, denn Diskgröße und Ausstattung entsprechen diesen VÖs. Spider-Man 2 enthält ebenfalls die Version 2.1 Es kann sich also bei der VÖ von 2017 auch nicht um die „Mastered in 4K“ Edition handeln, da diese, aus Platzgründen, ohne Bonusmaterial waren. Bei den vorliegenden Disks ist aber Bonusmaterial enthalten (bei SP2 und SP3). Dieses Set enthält zusätzlich eine Bonus-Disk, mit der Editor’s Cut Version von Spider-Man 3, als auch neues Material in Form eines Specials mit Stan Lee und ca. 30 Stunden Bonus Material, der bekannten VÖs. Im November 2017 veröffentlichte Sony dann das gleich Digi-Book noch mal, aber diesmal zusätzlich mit den Filmen auf UHD-BD. Das Digi-Book: Das Cover Design ist das Gleiche, wie bei der BD Digi-Book Variante und ebenfalls bei der Amaray VÖ: Spider-Man im Vordergrund in den gewohnten Farben, seine Gegner, schemenhaft, einfarbig im Hintergrund angedeutet. Leider ist hier auch ein FSK Aufkleber, von dem ich nicht sicher bin, ob er sich restlos entfernen lässt. Daher lasse ich die Finger davon, um Macken im Cover zu vermeiden. Der Spine, des recht dicken Digi-Books, zeigt nur den Titel: Spider-Man Trilogie Origins Collections. Die Rückseite zeigt Szenenfotos aus den Filmen. Ein 40-seitiges Booklet, teils kartoniert. Hier erfährt man viele Details, welche Schwierigkeiten es bei der Entwicklung der drei Filme gab, als auch Hintergrundinfos, etc. Aufgeteilt in drei Kapitel, zu jedem Film eines. Die Disks befinden sich, Digi-Book artig, in Papptaschen, aus denen sie ein wenig umständlich herauszuziehen sind. Es ist fast nicht möglich, die Disks zu entnehmen, ohne mit den Fingern darauf zu greifen. Die Blu-Rays haben zwar ein anderes Cover Design, als bei den VÖs von 2012 und es steht auch 2017 drauf, inhaltlich unterscheiden sie sich aber nicht. (wie oben erklärt) Bei den BDs von SP1 und SP3 handelt es sich augenmerklich um Repacks der VÖs von 2012. Bei SP2 ist es ein wenig anders: BD 1: Ton Deutsch: Dolby True hd 5.1, Extras: nur Trailer (gleich VÖ 2012) BD 2: Ton Deutsch: Dolby digital 5.1 viele Extras (VÖ 2012: Dolby True HD 5.1, Extras: nur Trailer) 2.1 ist auf beiden VÖs enthalten. BD 3: Ton Deutsch: Dolby True hd 5.1, ein paar Extras (gleich VÖ 2012) Die UHD-BDs unterscheiden sich im Cover Artwork zu den BDs. Hier gibt es kein Bild, sondern nur Titelschrift und Infos. Die beiden veränderten Fassungen zu Spider-Man 2 und 3 finden sich NUR auf Blu-Ray, nicht auf UHD-BD. Im Falle des Editor’s Cut von Spider-Man 3 ist dieser nicht auf der SP3 BD, sondern auf der Bonus Disk enthalten. Bonus Disk: Spider-Man 3: Editor’s Cut, deutsch 5.1 (nicht näher spezifiziert, vermutlich DD 5.1), Laufzeit: 138 min Extras Sp1: webisodes, diverse Extras Sp2: making the amazing (viele Unterkapitel), Ock-umentation: acht arme zum Festhalten, Zugang zum Netz (Anleitung) (verschiedene Winkel und Zusammenstellung), webisodes (versch. Kapitel) Extras Sp3: verschiedene Drehorte, Webisodes, Easter Eggs Des Weiteren enthält das Set einen digital UV Code für alle drei Teile. Bildqualität: Auf meinem Testgerät (siehe unten) habe ich den größten Unterschied bei SP1 gesehen. Die UHD ist um Längen besser, als die BD. Bei SP2 und SP3 konnte ich so gut wie keinen Unterschied sehen. Durch das gute Upscaling, zu dem moderne Geräte in der Lage sind, gab es einen nur wirklich geringen Qualitätsvorsprung der UHD. Selbst der erweiterte Farbraum und HDR macht sich nur bedingt bemerkbar. Der Ton: Nur auf UHD gibt es eine englische Dolby Atmos Tonspur. Ich habe das verglichen auf Spider-Man 2 UHD. Deutsch liegt nur in Dolby Digital 5.1 vor, was vielleicht einigermaßen OK ist, wenn es man es nicht anders kennt. Surround Effekte sind auf jeden Fall da und der Film macht mit dieser Tonspur auch Spaß. (trotzdem handelt es sich um die billigste Variante an Tonformat. Bei einer UHD und einem Set, das zwischen 55 und 80 Euro kostet, erwarte ich ein wenig mehr.) Schaltet man aber einmal um und hört in den englischen Dolby Atmos Ton rein, zieht es einem die Ohren aus. So etwas Geniales. Ein Unterschied, wie Tag und Nacht, leider nur auf English und nur auf den UHDs. (Beispiel:SP2, Kapitel 4: Wenn er die beiden Verbrecher an die Straßenlampe hängt mit dem Netz, klebt er sie räumlich an die Zimmerdecke.) Kritik zum vorliegenden Set: Durch die UHD-BDs bekommt man die Filme in der zurzeit bestmöglichen Qualität zu sehen, was sich vor allem bei Spider-Man 1 bemerkbar macht. Auch SP2 und SP3 machen auf UHD einen sehr guten Eindruck, allerdings ist der Unterschied zur BD durch gutes Upscaling nicht so enorm. Bildvergleiche kann man gut auf caps a holic dot com machen. Das Set enthält SP 2.1, der auf jeden Fall eine empfehlenswerte Version ist. Des Weiteren gibt es auf der Bonus Disk SP 3 im, bisher nicht veröffentlichten, Editor’s Cut. Schade ist allerdings, dass Sony der deutschen Sprachfassung keinen Dolby Atmos Ton spendiert hat. Auf UHD kommt nur Dolby Digital 5.1 zum Einsatz. Für mich ist das Set auf alle Fälle eine sehr gute Bereicherung der Spider-Man Sammlung. Wer es zu einem vernünftigen Preis bekommen kann, sollte auf jeden Fall zuschlagen. (Die Preise schwanken leider stark, ich konnte das Set für 56 erwerben) Ausführlichere Rezension und weitere techn. Details auf meinem Blog. Link in den Kommentaren.

This review is for the Spider-Man: Ultimate High Definition trilogy Box Set. It contains the following films: "Spider-Man" (2002), "Spider-Man 2" (2004), "Spider-Man 2.1" (an extended cut of Spider-Man 2 featuring some new sequences, and some entirely different alternate scenes) and "Spider-Man 3" (2007). As for the films, I'd rate them as such: "Spider-Man" ... 8 out of 10 "Spider-Man 2/2.1" ... 10 out of 10 "Spider-Man 3" ... 7 out of 10 (I didn't hate it, it had a charm and a lot of good factors, despite it's obvious large faults.) The Blu-Ray image is pretty incredible. I already owned all three on DVD, but I wanted to upgrade, as these films deserve the High-Def treatment. All three look significantly better, compared to their standard-def DVD counterparts. The first "Spider-Man" is the least dramatic upgrade, but the image is still clearer, sharper and more detailed... I was able to see a lot of things I missed on DVD (I didn't realize how much of the image was lost on DVD from compression and whatnot, because every shot I was seeing things I hadn't seen since the movie theater in 2002)- so even though it wasn't the greatest Blu-Ray picture quality, it was still definitely worth the upgrade. The second and third films are where the High-Def image pays off, though! I had just watched the second and third films days before this set arrived on DVD, and it is like night and day. "Spider-Man 2" was astounding in terms of how much more I could see in the image. You felt like you could reach into the movie. Textures looked real (DVD won't give you that), colors were brighter, small things (sparks, bits of glass, sweat, water) had astonishingly more detail. It was a huge upgrade. And "Spider-Man 3" was just as incredible- what really got me is that you could literally see things that are invisible on the DVD (Ex. You can see every single speck of sand during the Sandman scenes, and when we see the news broadcast towards the end of the film, I couldn't see the "horizontal TV lines" on DVD at all, whereas here, they're clearly visible.). I can't comment much for sound, as I just play my sound through the TV speakers, but judging from that, everything is mixed well. The special features are where this review almost slips- the only special features are those from "Spider-Man 3", which felt a bit odd. They are cool features, but it seemed like a missed opprotunity. But all in all, the price (which has come down a lot) makes it worth it. You can find really good quality used or even new copies in the $25-$35 range, so I can't complain much about the features- the price is right, the quality is amazing, and what features there are, are very solid. I'd highly recommend this set! Great films.

Stupendo cofanetto! l'idea di creare in un unico box tutta la trilogia di Spiderman è bellissimo! Lo consiglio per tutti gli appassionati sia dei supereroi, sia per chi ama semplicemente il personaggio in se. E' un cofanetto da avere nella propria collezione. E' davvero ben fatto e all'interno oltre ai 3 dvd (messi in maniera strategica per non farli graffiare) vi è anche una cartolina pubblicitaria con il nostro eroe ;) Sono molto soddisfatta del mio acquisto! Lo consiglio.
