With at least 4 packaging options, not a single one is appealing to me. I want the DVD in a DVD case, but of course if I buy that I won't get the soundtrack. And apparently the vinyl set comes with the DVD in a paper sleeve, which is even less appealing. I guess that's the best one, contentwise, but come on... I don't want a paper sleeve. I want this masterpiece to stand out on my DVD shelf. Whatever, I guess it's no big deal, but I figure since they're going all out for this, they might as well have some better packaging options.

I would have bought a package if they had the mega deluxe with the vinyl instead of cds

Fuck that. This is bullshit.

Where did we find out that the DVD doesn't come with a case?

I assuming he's judging by the sleeve looking thing shown in that video with Wayne, the one about the golden ticket, and extrapolating to what looks like the same sleeve looking thing in what the rest of the packages look like in the pictures. (Did that make any damn sense? I can't seem to phrase it without sounding like a 'tard!) I could give two shits, myself...

I'm skeptical that they would have made an entirely different sleeve just for the DVD in the vinyl package.

I guess we'll find out soon enough...

I ordered the vinyl package with the film, but now wonder if the DVD will come with the case. I get what you're saying, GhostONE.

"1LP 180-g green colored in a single pocket jacket w/insert plus a white colored 7" & DVD in a paper sleeve"

-Product description on Amazon.com

Not always the most reliable source, but it makes sense.

I ordered mine and I don't really care about paper sleeves. The way I see it a paper sleeve is better than a plastic case because it's non damaging to the earth, besides it is probably in one of the sleeves that Grandmas Boy or An Inconvenient Truth came in.

I'm pretty sure that the processes used to make the vinyl and print everything and whatnot make up for the manufacturing of a DVD case...
