10 Greatest Blu-ray & DVD Packaging Ever

10. Blade Runner Briefcase

Blade Runner, the inimitable future noir from Ridley Scott and Harrison Ford among a whole other host of talents, has had more than its fair share of re-edits and director€™s cuts over the years, due to disputes with the studio and Scott€™s own rampant perfectionism, (He comments on the Alien Director€™s Cut introduction that he thinks this version of the movie is €œpretty good.€ So modest.) and here they all are, collected in one sleek steel briefcase. A variation on a classic box set theme (007 has a couple himself), the set includes every version of the film ever put out, including Scott€™s €˜Final Cut€™ and an earlier edit that€™s not been seen before, as well as various booklets and bits of cool Blade Runner paraphernalia. One of the more affordable sets by virtue of having been on the market a few years and being relatively modest in comparison to some of the other entries on the list, this briefcase is essential for sci-fi completists.
