Ezydvd has updated their entry on the Supernatural boxed set -

NO SPECIAL FEATURES.

We get ripped off again.


:rant :cry :rant


OK, adding the copy from my third post so the addresses etc are easy to find:

OK, when I get cranky I get busy. This took some serious messing around but here is an address:

Warner Bros. Consumer Products (Aust.)
Level 2,
15-31 Pelham Street
Carlton Victoria Australia 3053

I also have a bunch of names and phone numbers (but they are from 2004 so are quite possibly out of date) for Warner Bros Consumer Products

Helen Thompson
General Manager
03 9657 0333

Cheryl Gardner
Licensing Director
03 9657 0333

Lisa English
Marketing and Retail Business Development Manager
03 9657 0307

Cherie Richards
Brand Assurance Manager
03 9657 0333

I note three of these numbers are the same, so probably won't get us past the switchboard. Some of these names may no longer be in the positions, but the position names should remain the same.
Do with this information what you will, but this news has ruined my day enough to warrant me trying to annoy the crap out of a corporate bigwig or two.


ETA: The phone numbers and address are definitely current, even if the names may not be.
And here's a Fax number: (03) 9663 8007

And here we have

WARNER BROS. INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION DISTRIBUTION
Level 6/ 116 Military Rd Neutral Bay 2089 (02) 9495 3000
Fax (02) 9908 5500

After a quick phone call (geepers) I now know they don't have a complaints department as such and the girl who answers the phone also opens the mail.
So, we need to send letters to:
Warner Bros Home Video
Level 7/ 116 Military Rd Neutral Bay 2089

Oh your joking! OMG,that is so not fair!
I think i will just wait for the UK one to come out if they get one and see if it has some features on it...
Im only going to get the second half of the season anyway,im not bothering about the boxed set til we have some extras...
I hate living here!

We missed out with the Dark Angel extras and now we miss out again.

This has really pissed me off.
Isn't it bad enough that we're six months behind? Just because we live at the arse end of the world.

That's bogus. If they have extras overseas how hard is it to whack them on for Australia. The extras are the best bits. Not happy Jan.

They are the best bits! And apparantely there is going to be a hugely funny gag reel and coz the boys are so insanely funny,i really wanted to see it!
Im so annoyed :(
Topped off a really shitty day it has!
Nope,its not bad enough that we are 6 months behind,they just want to punish us even more....

That is totally screwed....On Lost we got all the extras on a spare disk tha the US version got..that sucks monkies....I am going to order me a US version...thank god for multiregion dvd players......That so suxs!

DAMNIT! I'd swear some more but I don't think many people would appreciate it :unsure: This is so unfair, I severely wanted those specials like every other SPN fan in Australia. The worst part is that I have no way of ordering it from overseas because of my mum and the fact that I don't know how to use the region codes for DVD players. Darnit I'm so frustrated </3

Time to make use of the info in my above post then ;)

ATTENTION......I WILL GET THE US VERSION OF THE DVD AND BURN YOU GIRLS THE EXTRAS ONTO A SEPERATE CD. I WILL TALK TO MY COUSIN OVER THE WEEKEND ABOUT IT. I GOT A DVD BURNER SO DONT FRET MY PETS....YOU WILL GET A COPY OF THE EXTRAS!


Mands xoxooxox

SS you are a champion!!
But I'm still gonna write a dirty letter to Warners. If we don't make it very clear in a big way that we think this kind of thing bites the big one, they'll keep doing it forever!

those fudrucka's!!! how could they!!
y do we always get the sticky end!!!!
rite im getting mine off ebay!!!!!

awww.... i was lyk savin u fo that 2 :( how am i gonna get it now???!

thats so crap!! Thats so bad!!

Why do the other countries get ripped off so badly!?

It was the same with DA, we got crappy 'why would you wanna watch' extra's while the us version had interviews blooper reals etc

fingers x for us but i don't hold out much hope that the uk version will have the extra's

Well i hope for your sake Pure you got a better deal than we do! I hate living in Australia most of the time!
Oh and Myst,i will be sitting down writing a letter to them too! So dont worry..
Oh and Mands,we are very appreciative of you doing this for us!

I'm gonna leave it till next week - I should have depressurised enough to be able to remain polite, and the kids will be back at school so I can put together the best wording.

You will be glad the kids are back at school then!
Im going to have to leave it til next week because im not going to have time this weekend...
Im gonna get merry tonight,because im depressed,and im going to have to keep the pens away from myself because who knows what i will say to them if i write it when i am drunk! LMAO!

I'm also going to do a bit more net hunting and see if I can come up with an email addy to bombard...
Don't like my chances - took me best part of an hour's link chasing to get the info I've got, but you never know.

*copies down addresses* I will write. And phone if I can convince my mom that calling Warner about SN extras is a matter of life and death. Thanks for the info!

Blimey! I thought the 'extra' (no plural, let's face it) for DA was a bit thin - what's with that???? Why would we be less interested that the US fans?

It's so odd, we have the opposite when it comes to music, in Britain we usually have at least one extra track compared to the US version, don't understand that either.

Another 38 days to go till the uk gets the 2nd part of the season 1 :cheer I am going to phone my local stores 2 c if us brits will have the extras. Hope!!!

..............

..............

:cry

this sucks! :( :angry: :rant

It does indeed. Time to let 'em know how we feel!

This sucks *SCREAM* why do we always miss out on everything??!! It's bad enough that we're so far behind america, but now we don't even get extra? So unfair! :angry:

OK, I've now got a fax number to add:
Warner Bros Consumer Products,
fax: (03) 9663 8007

The address and phone numbers in my earlier post ARE STILL CURRENT.

Well at least we know they are still in use! Me thinks i might have to find a payphone,and ring them on Monday morning.

I"m still hunting for stuff
Here's my current find:

WARNER BROS. INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION DISTRIBUTION
Level 6/ 116 Military Rd Neutral Bay 2089 (02) 9495 3000
Fax (02) 9908 5500

didnt the special ft. have the first five mins of the first eppy next season??? :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry

Yep, among other seriously wantable things.

LIKE BLOOPERS!!!!! :cry

:P AND THE COMBINATION 4 THE LAPTOP ON THE SITE!!!!!! :o ah i want it so bad!

Other countries always get a raw deal. Why cant they just keep the bloody extras on it? Dont we deserve to see the extras or something? This is bullshit. Aussie usually gets the bad end of the stick. We are the last to get most things and dont get the full thing in the end anyway.... It totally sucks. I dont mind doing copies. Chris said I should be able to do it as long as there is no copy control seal on it but he can get past those things usually. I say bombard them with letters and complaints. If they get enough they may opt to put the extras on save upset fans. SN has fans from all over. They should cater to everyones needs and it should be all fair and nobody should miss out on anything that the other has. Its like breaking up a chocolate and giving the bigger half to one person and giving everyone else the scraps of whats left......TOTALLY NOT FAIR!!!



Mands xoxoxoxo

yes!!!! i totally agree with you!!!

what, do they think that we dont deserve special features??? or that we're not interested in them??? Aus has some of the biggest SN fans....there's tons on this site who are so dedicated!!!!

i hate getting the short end of the stick! :angry:

Whoever pinned this: thank you - it'll be easy to find if I find any more addys/phone number etc.
It mildly amazes me that a company with as big a footprint in this country as Warners is such a pain to find online!

OMG we miss out again not happy JAN :cry

This sucks how could they do this? The Aust version of smallville had special features and they are with the WB, yet they cant do it for Supernatural? :cry
We always miss out :cry

The thing that really annoys me is: I could buy the US version from Amazon, pay $A55 for it, and get all the extras (which I would if I had a multi-region DVD player)
Being a good girl and buying locally, I get to pay $A75 and miss out on the bits that make it special. Jeez, if all I'm gonna get is what I taped off the TV, why bother buying it at all?
Warner Bros makes a huge deal about pirating, but they're actively encouraging it with this behaviour.
(Hmm, I'm on a roll here - must not forget these points in my letter!!)

yes!!! with u all the way there mystmum. and we cant order from america coz of the different region players.....

basically, this sucks ROYALLY.

Well I really dont give a rats ass what Warner bloody thinks about copying it cause if I can for you I will.......I wont have you missing out on the extras. I do luckily have a multiregion player so I can get my hands on the US version. Will be around $100 but I dont mind. I want you all to have copies of the extras cause Warner is too imcompetant to put them on themselves. Its not like America deserves it more than us. They chose to air the show in another country they should pay up when it comes out on DVD with everything the US get. Prisobreak is coming out with all the extras...Lost did. Why not SN? There is a huge following over here for it. People tend to forget that. I like this accross the ocean thread cause we all band up together on here and everyone is so nice. We will stick this out and get our extras and if all else fails ya know I will try my best to get you copies...

Mands xoxoxo

I just dont see how it is fair that us SN fans get ripped off like this!
I mean i can get it from the US too,but then i have a multiregion dvd player too,but why should everyone have to get one of them to actually watch the proper boxset???
We pay enough money for the darn thing,the least they could do is give us the whole thing!
*walks off with steam coming out her ears*
