Whiskey_Jim Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Heenan's 40+ year career gets two discs. DX's final seven month run gets three discs. what are people more likely to want to see? a mixture of old footage of a manager (regardless of how good he was) or wrestling footage of two of the most talented and significant wrestlers of the last 15 years? the problem is WWE's key demographic is a lot younger these days so it makes more sense to put more effort into catering for them, and most of them have likely not heard of Heenan or never seen anything of him.

Baz Windham Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Hopefully the chap from Silvervision reads this, the Survivor Series Blu Ray that is out soon has the Old School Raw as an extra but the listing appears to be missing some stuff, is it an edited version of the show? Great to have it as an bonus but would be a shame if it weren't in full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baz Windham Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Cheers, I think I read something similar on their facebook a while back and couldn't remember where. As you say a shame, but you'll still get the gist and feel of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Sharpe Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Bought the Heenan DVD from Silver Vision (cos it was out a couple of weeks before Amazon) and was a tad disappointed tbh. Â The biog on the first disc is pretty good, but a fair bit of the footage is shown two or even three times - which considering the amount of footage they must have available, is pretty poor. His H.o.F. speech is amazing though, although the lead-in is a tad embarrassing, and could possibly have been edited. Â From a personal point of view, would have liked to have seen more of his stuff with Monsoon. The only match on the DVD with them commentating together is the '92 Rumble, which I'm sure has been on several other DVD's. Â Having said that, Bobby is a legend, and I guess we're lucky he got his own release at all amongst the milking of the Cena/DX cash cows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Wright Mark Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I was actually thinking of buying a cheap blu-ray player from Tesco, just for the Old School Raw extra on the Survivor Series blu-ray, but since it's edited, I might not bother now.

Rave Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Â Â I haven't seen anything on silvervision on this as of yet. This isn't just gonna be one of those North American deals where it's only released on wal mart over there or something is it?!?!? I haven't pre ordered a DVD for a good long while but this is one I would love to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_3165 Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 That Story of WM dvd could really be something special! Seeing Vince cry in that trailer was kinda sad to see (I always see Vince as a very hard hearted bloke, maybe not so much in real life!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Reverend Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Â Â Three discs too?! This is going to be epic! Can't wait - if it is a US exclusive then I'm off to the States in August so will definately pick it up then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KillerTwist Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I am all over that Wrestlemania DVD if it's released here. From the trailer it looks fantastic, and just the thing to wet my appetite before WM27. That and the WM18-26 rewind that I've just started. Â As it's three discs surely it will get released here too, if it isn't I'll happily import it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happ Hazzard Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 The only WWE DVD ever that hasn't been released here is the Superstar Graham one. I can't see any reason why this new WrestleMania DVD wouldn't get a UK release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nero Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 Really looking forward to the 50 greatest superstars DVD. Not sure I agree with the order of some of the placings but it should still be a cracking watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
