the first two movies in the series came in paperlike cases. i ordered the 3rd one from amazon and its not the same case as the first two movies but rather in a Amaray case (plastic case). is it like that for every one or just what amazon carries?

Yes, unfortunately. Now my HP DVD collection looks like crap (well, the 3rd one anyway). I dunno why they suddenly changed their packaging, but it sux!

Yes, but it doesn't look as pretty :p

doesn't matter if the movie is good or not..the most important thing is the packaging ;)

PM me your mailing addy and I'll get it out after Christmas :)

p.s.,
Just so we don't deviate even more:

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Year 6 book) will be coming out on July 16th, 2005. :D

Good market for someone to manufacture just the case (paper like the first two) to sell. I'd buy one for my wife just for consistency's sake.

Consistency!

Yes, that's why I waited before purchasing book 5, HP and the Order of Phoenix. Paperbacks!

I'll buy all 7 books and all 7 DVDs when they come out in one clean (cheap) box set.

I agree, I like consistency too. Matrix 1 is cardboard, 2 adn 3 are plastic... :(
