Ok, so Warner released Superman/Shazam on DVD and Blu-ray but I'm not exactly sure how to profile it. Reason why is, while the primary animated short is the Superman/Shazam one, 3 other previously released shorts (with feature length animated movies) are a part of the same file on the disc and there is a play all option to play all 4 shorts and each are available to play separately under another menu. There is a special features sub-menu but that does only hold features (commentaries).

So I assume I would just profile Superman/Shazam since it is on the front cover while the other 3 are mentioned on the lower front corner yet the back cover does have the running time for all 4 shorts added together. Do I just profile Superman/Shazam's cast and crew or do I use episode dividers and profile the others as well? Like I said, it might be obvious but I haven't come across this before.

I profile it with episode divers.
Are you local?

I know I'm kind of late to the party, but this is what I would do as well. Had to wait till I got mine, so I could see what you are talking about. It appears that Superman/Shazam is the title of the disc, since it's the main short, but it is also a collection of short films. I would use episode divders for the cast and crew, just like on the Pixar short collection.

Something interesting came up. So the copy I received (from Warner) has no slip cove or digital copy. On Amazon, it seems they are selling the non-digital copy (and no slip cover) as well because the cover on there is just the regular one and when I was at Best Buy (though very possible I missed it), they only had the regular version but Wal Mart does have that version so it very well may be an exclusive. Should that be contributed?

I'm torn on this so if anyone has seen the SE version at other stores other than Wal Mart, can you post it here?

I saw it at Walmart as well this morning, but I got my copy from Amazon and it's just like your copy. It also appears the reviewer at Blu-ray.com also got the non-digital copy version as well, since it's not mentioned in the review. Only their cover art shows the Digital Copy slip cover. I did quick search online as well and came up with this: http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=Superman/Shazam!:+The+Return+of+Black+Adam+Blu-ray&hl=en&safe=off&rlz=1G1ACGW_ENUS378&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=3332148734830170443&ei=8R3bTPCZKMWclgeco5HDCQ&sa=X&oi=product_catalog_result&ct=result&resnum=5&ved=0CC8Q8wIwBA# Even though some show the Digital Copy cover art, only Walmart listed it in their description. I also sent an e-mail off to WB customer service about this as well, since their WBShop shows only the non-digital copy BD.

It wouldn't be the first time Warner has given Wal Mart an exclusive (or that Wal Mart has a packaging exclusive). I can't remember which title it was, but Wal Mart had something similar to what Target and Best Buy have had selling a Blu-ray with a DVD copy inside and I know that Wal Mart is the only place you can buy Scooby Doo Camp Scare on Blu-ray at all.

I bought one from Best Buy and one from Walmart and the only difference is that one has a slip cover, they both have the digital copy which is only listed on the slip case.

Really, that's odd that the one without the slip had the digital copy.

Out of curiosity did the Best Buy one list digital copy on the package or was the code just inside the case?

Code and disc for digital copy were inside the case that I got from best buy and wal-mart. The Wal-mart version and the Best buy versions are the same except one has a slip cover. Target also is selling this version with the Slip cover w/ digital copy.
