The lenti should have included the 3D disc. Instead of making us spring for a double pack I don't need (I do want to see the film in 3D though)

What kind of finish does the box set have @Damon M ? Any nice embossing/spot glossing? Doesn't appear to be anything special from the pics

I got mine from KimchiDVD. I’ll hold off till I confirm others have the same issue. It’s very doubtful it’s my player, but the standard reply from manufacturers, as you know, is that their discs undergo rigorous testing

When I get mine (it's bundled with Wind River) I'll let you know if I have the same problem

There is some slight embossing and glossing. It’s a nice slip but the other two look nicer IMO. For the most expensive of the three I expected a bit more. Definitely should have had a lenticular cover.

Okay. I’ve had a much better look at the 2D/3D slip. And I’ve changed my mind. It’s actually quite classy. Still wish it was lenticular though.

Aw yeah! That's more like it.

Thanks for the pics

I’ve watched the 3D disc, there is an authoring issue towards the end of the film when the K Trons attack. On some occasions it will pixilate terribly, other times not.

Ok, so @Damon M I received my set this week and I've watched the 3D version of the film. I've no pixelation problems like you say so you may have a faulty disc and might want to get that checked out.

However, I did notice that the title of the film was in German and one of the descriptive texts also where it's supposed to say '400 years later'!!!!?? (see screenshots)



How this is even possible where there are no German language or subtitle options (only Korean or English) is baffling.

Seems to me like there may have been disc authoring issues alright.

 

[BluSteel2012]

Is anybody elses 3D disc displaying German text on screen?

Update on mine: I washed the disc in warm soapy water several times. Dried with a lint free cloth between each wash. Have had no problems since. As for the German, mine has it too. There's also now no English hard subs at the beginning on planet Mul, as per its theatrical release. So to me there are few glitches, but overall its a great package.

Yes, I noticed that too regarding the hard subs at the start too.

It is a great package alright. I really enjoyed the movie too. The 3D was awesome as the film is really suited to it. It was a blind buy for me so I'm very happy with it.

I've been thinking of doing this myself...could you tell me how well the steelbook fits inside the slipcover please? Also is the lenticular slip cover lenticular on both sides or just the front (based on the photos in this thread I think it's probably just the front but wanted to be certain!).

Thanks in advance!

It fits perfectly instead of the scanavo case. Lenti on the front only.
