Cool Stuff: "Inception" Briefcase Blu-ray Set

IN THE NEWS by Aaron Peck on Sep 2, 2010


During my daily perusing of High-Def Digest's forums, one of the alert forum members posted something about this little beauty, which is about to be released on Amazon.uk. Yeah for right now it's an import, but there's nothing stopping the makers from producing it over here.

There's a ton of stuff in this set, so let's see what we're getting for our money:

  • PASIV (Portable Automated Somnacin IntraVenous) Device User Manual - Just in case you need to perform a quick extraction sometime down the road.
  • Movie Art-cards - Those look like they'd make a great little framed collection if you wanted to take it that far.
  • Inception Spinning Top - Great souvenir but don't use it as your own totem if you go rooting around in someone's mind. Remember, your totem has to be your own. 
  • Maximum Movie Mode - This is perhaps the most exciting aspect of this set, because it means that the US release will have Maximum Movie Mode too. Chris Nolan and Leonardo DiCaprio will lead us through the movie as it plays, no doubt revealing great tidbits here and there, and hopefully clearing up the myth that Cobb is dreaming the entire movie.
  • Prologue (Motion Comics) - Two motion comics will be included. The first is called "The Colob Job," which previews how Cobb and Aruthur became involved with the getting information from Saito in the first place. "The Big Under" explains how the team was able to get to Saito and put him under, which lead to the dream experience at the beginning of the movie.
  • Dream of Consciousness - Scientific evidence that dreams are not so much altered states of consciousnesses, but instead parallel realities. 
  • Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital Copy - That's why you see three discs up there. However, watching this movie on DVD would be sad if you have the Blu-ray sitting there.

This set is just too awesome, and at some point I'll have to get my hands on it. Importing stuff can get expensive though, but for something this cool it may just be worth it.
