Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Blu-ray SteelBook) (Zavvi Exclusive) [UK]
- Thread starter snooloui
- Start date
Why do people complain about the region? Yea it sucks but why not just swap the discs, at least you still have the case, the steelbook is the main reason for buying it anyway so I don't see the problem.
Still waiting for mine to come in the mail

Some people dont want to double dip on the same movie.
I agree that the Steelbook is the main reason for buying, but having to buy the movie again because its a different region is a real pain. The movie is only 10 cdn where I am so its not a complete pain, but in the case of a new release paying an extra 20 for just a disc is terrible.
That being said I personally buy for the steel so for the ones that are locked I double dip if I have to.

Thanks for that so uk disc is pants compared to the US disc carnt say I'm surprised. Also read now that the audio is 5.1 lossless on the us discs and 2.0 lossy on the uk ones. So on that basis ordered US triple pack from amazon.com for £13 delivered expedited which is actually cheaper than the steelbook suits me.
i just noticed that i possibly took the specs of TMNT (2007) when posting yesterday (2 different aspect ratios which made me doubt...).
i now fixed the infos, doesn't change anything, US transfer is 1080p, UK 1080i.
US transfer didn't have good reviews either.
here is a comment on the picuture quality (US disc!) from dvdbeaver:

A good deal of the first movie takes place in the darkness of the sewers and the dimly lit salons where Splinter and the turtles hide out. The turtles are generally nocturnal, so their forays into the city tend be at night as well. The first movie puts the noise issue to the test, and the results are, well, variable at best. Mostly, the image is simply thin and grainy. I can't say I was distracted by artifacts or other problems since the murkiness of the image took precedence. Your average decently produced DVD will look better. I didn't notice print damage, so there might have been some clean-up at work there. It is entirely possible this movie, and the first sequel – which looks a lot like the first, only worse – represent what we would have seen theatrically almost 20 years ago.
Just wanted to share this with you guys! 
It arrived today - without dents of course
I LOVE IT!

Watched this today with the kids. I thought it would be very dated now but I was surprised how well it holds up. The suits still look pretty good IMO. Also, I never knew Sam Rockwell was in this!!
Did anybody else notice that the 'Making Of' documentary is for part II (The Secret Of The Ooze) though??
How is this still in stock. The intital 2500 seem to have sold out in days and wheraleas the reported remaining stock of 300 has surpassed that time and is still in stock. Zavvi reporting misleading figures yet again I assume.
Anyone have the opportunity to see if the subtitles are in English only, or are there other languages?
Thanks
Anyone?
