New Elm Street Box Set - Lilith - 03-24-2010
Theres a new Nightmare on Elm Street Box set fixing to hit stores. But by the sounds of it, its not worth having. Also Robert Englund is not on the cover! The NEW Freddy is! WTF? This is a small paragraph from the net i found about it...
"But as Fangoria brings to light, why in the blue Hell is Jackie Earl Haley on the cover? Clearly an attempt to capitalize on what everyone is hoping will be a successful remake, one just has to wonder if New Line is going too far. While I agree it's a cool looking still, especially since they Photoshopped the snot out of it, Englund should be the only one on the cover, and beyond this, there really is nothing special about the box set. Fangoria points out that it will retail for around $50, which is $15 more than the box set released in 1999."
I agree, Robert Englund should be the ONLY Freddy on that or any other NOES Box Set. I would buy the old Box Set before i bought this crap.

but, Robert Englund was the only Freddy up until now, he should be on the cover.

I totally agree, Robert should be on the cover of HIS movies. This new razor gloved wannabe isnt in ANY of these movies. Probably hasnt even seen all of them either. He should not be on the cover. And if it is for promotional purposes, thats just shitty in my opinion. Its like a huge fuck you to Robert and his fans. But im old school, and thats how i feel about it. I wont buy the new box set. Actually, im fixing to buy the old Box Set. Its WAY better and has shit loads of extras. And it has the REAL Freddy on it! Ok im done ranting now. lol:rant::rant::rant::rant::rant::rant::rant::rant::rant::rant::rant::rant:

How can someone be on the cover of the box set if they're not featured in any of the movies contained within the set? They need to really rethink that.

I have the NOES box set. No way in hell am I going to get a box set with Haley.

Just letting it be known, I wasn't doubting Lilith or anything, I'm just appalled. If you go to Amazon, you can find the box set and pre-order it.

I've heard about this; a few points to make
1) Using JEH as somew kinda "hip" marketing gag is stupid
2) The only thing truly new about this set is replacing the bonus-disk CHOCK FULL OF EXTRAS with Freddy vs. Jason X(
3) The old set can now be found for less than $20
