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.

Nice job on the custom work....maybe I can forward you mine copy and you can do it for me...;)

i know right?! that's how i feel, i'd never attempt something like that cause i'd destroy the steel haha

I was really scared doing it. I did crease the spine a tiny amount (hardly noticable) also I should take another picture. I noticed that the canon wasn't lining up as well and moved it around a bit to make it look a lot better :D

Honestly the spine was the hardest part, everything else was simple.

simple for me to destroy :rolleyes:
 
There's a guide on how to do it over in the Modifying Steelbooks thread if your interested.

Back on topic: How is the transfer on this movie?

I've been waiting to watch it on Blu-ray until I get the updated disks :ohno:

But I am very eager to watch this thing

I see you did some modding in the modding forum. Do you have any plans for this one?
 
Sorry to hear that Leshita. I am sure they must have a reason for doing so.

One small reminder - the special pre-order price ends Monday, April 2nd for those folks still on the fence about getting this one at a reduced price.

They responded on Monday and apologized for the mistake. They have checked and I was only sent one copy, so they will be shipping my other one shortly. :)
