I have a blu-ray/dvd combo pack with 4 flicks. Here's what the cover looks like:



The white title strip on top reads:
"4 Film Heat on the Street"

The spine says "4 Feature Films" on top, then just has the titles. Nowhere on covers or discs does it say "4 Film Heat on the Street".
What should I call this set?

In too Deep (and just add the other films as bonus but not to title field, since the cover says that)
In Too Deep Bonus 3 Films
In Too Deer (with 3 Bonus Films)
4 Film Heat on the Street
In too Deep/The Glass Shield/Malevolent/Rage in Harlem (what spine says)

Think it over, I'll be profiling these 4 flicks for while before needing a final title.

From the cover I'd say

Title: In too Deep
The other 3 Features would be (again according to cover only) Bonus Films and should be treated like this.
Means: All data of the main-feature (In too Deep) should be traced in the parent, for the three "Bonus Films" create a child each.

It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Based purely on the cover, I would agree with Lewis.  The 3 films are clearly marked as a bonus.

There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.

Unless they're all on the same disc, which I suspect could be the case given the distributor.

Yeah, all 4 films are on each disc. It's a 2-disc set, one BD, one dvd, and all 4 films on each. Even better, while the BD has the cover line-up with In Too Deep as the main feature, the dvd has Glass Shield first and main, and all others in different order as well.
Oh yeah, powerdvd shows the dvd title as "Heat on the Street: 4 Movies [2 Discs] [Blu Ray]". I can't play the blu-ray in my computer to get what it says or disc ID either. I'm glad Echo Bridge lost all the Miramax rights so there will be no more confusing sets like this, at least from them!

Add in a cast of thousands for the films, and I'm only halfway through the cast for Glass Shield after 2 hours of auditing (going by cover order).

Going by the image... completely agree. The title is just In Too Deep.

Audits all done, jsut one last little question.
I titled it In Too Deep, and for now, locally put "3 Bonus Films" as the edition (In Too Deep did get a solo Blu-ray release, so this isn't a meaningless field like often times). I know the cover says "Bonus 3 Films", but that's just poor grammar!

Question is, should I submit it with the edition field blank, or put the cover's 'Bonus 3 Films' in it, or correct to '3 Bonus Films'? Does anyone else even have this disc or care?

One last thing, we go strictly by cover right? I ask because almost all online listings for this are not under In Too Deep, but Heat on the Street. So is the title strip and tags on the discs themselves, it's just not on the cover anywhere. Examples:

I wouldn't add the edition to the online at all myself... don't seem like an edition to me. But if you choose to add it... it must match the case exactly per rules.

Title must come from front cover only per rules. so must be In Too Deep.

The title has to come from the cover.  You can use other parts of the case to verify what, of all the information that is on the cover, is the title, but it still has to be on the cover.  From what I can tell, Heat on the Street is not on the cover, so can't be used.

I submitted it as "In Too Deep" yesterday and it's approved already. Someday someone will plug that UPC in and be greeted with a full correct profile for all 4 films.
