Sigh, might be giving up on the Mondo line. As of now, I have everything that's been released, but I can't justify continuing to spend money on films I don't like. It was fun while it lasted!

 

[Graphic_Delusions]

I actually sighed when I saw the back.

Hoping there are graphics printed on the slipcase to make it less remote looking.

Hmm says theatrical version, a bit disappointing

Isn't the theatrical running time 139 minutes?

That Mondo press release does say 'Theatrical Version', but then lists 'Feature RT: 153 minutes'

Unless that's the special features combined running time?

They mention mongrel media, a quick check shows their release is theatrical only per BD forum.

Any Canadians own this version and can confirm what's on it?

Edited-please no linking to other forums.

I have the Mongrel disc and the main feature is the Extended Cut with the Theatrical Cut included as a "special feature".

Thanks for clearing that up, they worded it strangely

Is anyone else having the problem with not being able to buy it online? Says it can't be delivered to my location in Ontario so I can't order it online....Futureshop delivered to me all the time.

 

[psychoscot]

Very disappointing, art isn't great, best buy is back on the slip. Pass on this. [emoji20]

 

[bojee]

We've got enough T2, passing on this as well.

Hey everyone - just an update that bestbuy.ca website is having some IT issues on the release - we should be up by 11:00 PST...sorry!!! There will be a blog going up about the release at that time as well with all the details. Seems right now the description online ended up with the Dredd #006 info. Here are some more details on the release ahead of that...

I'm glad that it's T2 but I'm a little disappointed with the artwork chosen when there is far better Mondo artwork available for this film. I suspected that T2 would be the next title to get a release due to the imminent arrival of Genisys in the cinema but was hoping that they would utilise this artwork instead.

As regards the chosen artwork, I prefer the Variant to the Regular version. That, in itself, is a little annoying since I have always opted for the Regular versions over the Variants, where there has been a choice, in order to retain a uniform Mondo collection. I guess that this time I'm going to have to go with my preferred choice and to hell with the uniformity.

Notes: Variant is printed on the steelbook, NOT on the sleeve. Numbered edition.

Am I right in assuming from what's been written above, that for this release, there will be two different Steelbooks? The Regular version with the red artwork and the Variant with the green artwork?

As regards the disc itself, as has already been pointed out above, this is the same disc as released by Mongrel in Canada in August of last year, not the earlier disc that was contained in the Skynet Edition. For the benefit of those in Europe, Australasia, etc, the disc is Region ABC (Free).

Thanks @BBYCMichael !! Are there more details to come on this or is that a no to the glow in the dark...

 

[Graphic_Delusions]

I assume the "Custom foil microchip sticker" will be on the slipcase?

At first I was hoping it would be some luxury new holographic etching on the actual steelbook

 

[BBYCMichael]

That is the info that will be released - variant is my favorite since Drive! No glow in the dark on this one

 

[TheJoker]

This is region free right?

Been wanting a T2 steel for a while but latest releases have been boring, but this!!!!!!

This looks awesome!!!!

 

[Dan Kyte]

Feeling a bit torn on this one. I don't know which one to get. Heh. I do prefer the red colours but it sounds like a fair amount of love has been put into the variant edition. Honestly, I'm kinda wishing the old variant arrangement was still available so I could have the predominantly red and white steelbook with a green and black slip. But I cannae complain that Mondo have gone to the effort of producing two different steelbooks for the film. Hmm, think it might have to be the regular version

Tom Whalen is right near the top of my favorite Mondo artists. Don't know what you all are on about--this artwork is fantastic!

Yes if it is the disc released by Mongrel Media it will be region free.
