The Raid 1 & 2 (Blu-ray SteelBook) (Zavvi Exclusive) [UK]
- Thread starter luke98
- Start date
Zavvi are really slinging out some low rent garbage right now! Where's the effort you bums!
ask the money grabbing studio that made these films.
Another RAID edition!?Another one @bloodsnake007
Nothing new I know... but I gotta have it! 
@harry Thanks for the tag Amigo! 
Total bargain if using the same templates (particularly the stunning #1) . . .
. . . and welcome news for those customers who don't have either of the original UK releases and for that reason it's a definite
Late to the game or just never bought the originals?
You can still pick up both but at the time of writing but you'll have to pay at least 40 quid for #1 and 18 quid for #2 (both in "New & Sealed" condition) for the privilege.
Quick reminder of the de-bossed UK originals of THE RAID 1 & 2 with the first one a standout steelbook and the second ordinary by comparison
#1 Play.com exclusive - Sep. 2012
#2 Entertainment Store exclusive - Aug. 2014
Yes, we've already had the same artwork on the two standalones but I'm still thinking I prefer it to the German release:-

Fully agree about the Kimchi releases.
I received both 1 and 2 (Lentis) just last week and I'm VERY impressed by the holographic images they display.
I also find both films absolute works of art wrt displaying martial arts fighting on film.
I know some give #2 short shrift regards the plot but I thoroughly enjoyed how it branched out from the claustrophobic confines of the first.
And to those who think "Dredd" is a 'rip-off' of #1, just no, Dredd was in production before Raid #1.
A weird coincidental plot line but that's exactly what happened, according to the directors of both films.

Is this indeed going to be a Region 2/B only? Or is Zavvi incorrect like ever so often? I know the other Jock steels for each movie separate were Region 2 tho, so it's probably the same discs since it's the same art 
director Gareth Evans said in an interview last year that he wanted to make a few films outside Indonesia before going back to this franchise - if at all. he had a great deal of creative control over the first 2 films; Merantau Films basically let him do what he wanted.
here's the full quote:
Could you potentially have The Raid 3 done before they finish the remake?
Absolutely not, no. I’m not touching The Raid 3 for a couple of years from now. I don’t have any plans to do The Raid 3 within the next two or three years so I’m going to take a break from that franchise for a bit. I want to do some things outside of Indonesia for like two films, then come back to Indonesia and shoot The Raid 3. I have another one I want to shoot with him first. Still in the action genre and it’s something that [Uwais] needs to train for for a fair amount of time. You have to make good with some weaponry, my friend.
