Alien Blu-ray Packaging Detailed

One of the hottest catalog titles of the Blu-ray arena this year, the four-movie Alien Anthology, is mere days away from hitting store shelves. Enthusiasts are eager to know what's in the box. Blu-ray.com is here to show you the pictures, thanks to staff reviewer Casey Broadwater.

These are Casey's impressions on the packaging:

The packaging is exceptionally sturdy and very sleek, starting with the thick cardboard slipcover that holds the set together. Inside, you'll find what I can only describe as a dense cardboard book, with a heavy duty cover and 11 pages made from 2-3 mm cardboard stock. As you can see from the photos, each disc slides into a semi-circular slit in its respective page; the fit is snug, but the discs are easy to remove and replace, so I don't foresee any damage from accidental scratching. The pages between each film are adorned with artwork and the back page has a folder for the "MU-TH-UR Mode Viewer's Guide." Fingerprints show up easily on the glossy black slipcover, but otherwise, I have no complaints. The discs are safely housed, the case has a satisfying heft, and the art design is simple and iconic. Overall, this is one of the most well-constructed multi-film Blu-ray box sets we've gotten yet.
