Info regarding missing Audio Track at Flicker Alley site and Disc Replacement Form:

*Confirmed: No need to send back the original disc*


Dear Flicker Alley Customer: Please note that one of the bonus feature audio options on the Blu-ray disc of our limited SteelBook edition -- A Trip to the Moon in B&W Audio Option 1, featuring Robert Israel's orchestral score and the original English narration written by Georges Melies -- is currently missing its narration track and only features Robert Israel's orchestral score. As such, all Blu-ray discs shipped at this time will be with this orchestral score only configuration.

This only affects the Blu-ray disc of this set. The DVD disc in this publication contains the correct audio for this bonus feature.

We are currently in the process of remastering and remanufacturing a Blu-ray disc which will have the correct audio option for this particular bonus feature, and will make it available by request to customers who fill out our on-line Disc Replacement Form below.

Please complete the following form with as much of your original order information as possible (to verify your purchase) and we will contact you once the replacement discs have been manufactured and are ready for shipment.

Yeah Chip that would be a dream come true, i seriously doubt they would actually number them on the case itself, but maybe a sticker.

My understanding is it doesnt cost much to have it lazer inscribed like done with I.M.2 Target. It sure would end any speculation and give collectors PROOF of print runs.

I guess the least they coudl do is do what they did with a few of the numbered editions in AU steelcases. That is a nice looking sticker with the print run on them.
 
I doubt they are going to produce more steelbooks than the minimum quantity (4000 copies I think?). This title just wouldn't sell more copies than that.

Totally with you on this Chip...

I reckon this will not sellout in the short term. Maybe after a price reduction.
 
I ordered 4 copies, but none are for me. I love the artwork, but the movie bored the **** out of me. If the title was 20 bucks, I would have bought one, but not for 30 bucks
