| | Posted: | | | | When the 20-disc Disney Magic Classics Box set was released in Sweden, there was an error in production. One of the discs contained The Emperor's New Groove 2 instead of the first film. But this was never corrected afaik, instead they simply bundled it with the correct version of Emperor's, on the side. So how should I enter the box set, with the correct disc, with the wrong disc, or both (making it 21 discs)? | | | | First registered: February 15, 2002 |

| | Posted: | | | | So would that make the extra disc a "bonus disc" or how does one enter that? Maybe under "Other Features"...  | | | | First registered: February 15, 2002 | | | | Last edited: by Nexus the Sixth |

By 'bundled', I mean a dvd that is shrink wrapped onto another release. To me, they are simply separate releases being sold together. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | Yet the contents of the box set list it as being IN the box set. The inclusion of the extra disc is a correction for a missing feature. Shouldn't this be reflected somewhere? | | | | First registered: February 15, 2002 |

| | Posted: | | | | I wouldn't list it anywhere. I would simply note that it came with a different disc. My objective is to profile what I actually got, not what I was supposed to get.
That being said, this thread has had 160 views and nobody has offered an opinion. Since nobody else has an opinion, if you would like to add it as a bonus disc, I say go for it. The screener will decide if it is the correct thing to do. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | I think what I'd do is call The Emperor's New Groove 2 instead of the one that was SUPPOSED to be in the set. Since all the documenation for the set (if I understand you correctly) talks about the first film as being included and not #2, I wouldn't worry about how it was actually packaged and would just make the profile look like it was supposed to. | | | Another Ken (not Ken Cole)

| | Posted: | | | | I'd agree with Unicus on this one. |

| | Posted: | | | | I would, for purposes of clarity, however differentiate this from isolated production errors that aren't consistent across the entire release (e.g., the Blu-ray Harry Potter sets, some of which included an HD DVD), especially when the studio corrects them. But the description indicates there wasn't a correction as I understand it, and that they all had this issue. So I'd profile it as it is. | | | | "This movie has warped my fragile little mind." |

| | Posted: | | | | Just out of interest. In the first pressed region 2 release of spooks series 2 disk one was was disk 2 and visa versa IYSWIM. So on the printed surface it's disk one but content is disk 2 (caused a lot of confusion at first as the previous series ended on a cliffhanger). If this was a stamp it would be worth a fortune, it still may be! But as I like this community as a gesture of good will I would be willing to swap it for a complete first pressing criterion collection, I'll even pay the postage to send them to you  |

| | Posted: | | | | Well, I have no way of knowing for certain if it affected 100% of buyers but since it is a limited release, I'm pretty sure of that. Anyway, since everyone got what they paid for, although you have to replace the wrong disc in the box with the correct one yourself, I decided to make the profile look like everything was normal. I might change my mind again, but that's how I submitted it for now. If there was a "bonus disc", I didn't see it... Thanks for your input. | | | | First registered: February 15, 2002 |

| | Posted: | | | | It's none of my business and it's not a profile that I'll ever deal with, but I would have entered the set as it was intended. Obviously they caught the error in time to include the proper disk, now we're just arguing about packaging semantics. That's my take on it. | | | | Last edited: by mdnitoil |
