hoping for more pix before release...hoping not a jumbo

 

[digitalbabe]

Tono, it may be something thicker because it comes with 3 discs and 52 page book (see OP). But it could always turn out to be regular Steelbook with book packaged and attached (like Avatar UK?). Not sure...

hey DB hoping for regular steel with the bunch of cool suff, other wise i'm not interested...is like those jumbo from disney(i have them but i hate them) i'm just afraid to fixed them into regular sttels..i don't want to damaged them..

 

[Jericho]

Love this movie and the steelbook looks cool, even if a bit jumbo. Doubt this has English subs, however. Seems to be the track record on this company

 

[tono06]

i can believe this is coming out next week and there are not pictures yet...i need to know if this will be jumbo in fact...

 

[axcraig]

It comes out tomorrow, very surprised that no one has pix yet.

Is the title embossed?

 

[ocielz]

That Is real nice, the title does look embossed, especially when you zoom in.

 

[terry44]

English subs? lol subtitles I mean not submarines

 

[digitalbabe]

Looks great, can't wait to get mine-woot!

 

[tono06]

so i'm confused! the first picture looks like a normal steelbook, but the second like jumbo

 

[ocielz]

Jumbo steel sideways?? Is that a first?

 

[digitalbabe]

Tono, the pic of first is a slipcover, I think. This is a Jumbo. And yes, Ocielz-I *think* this is the first horizontal Jumbo.

 

[tono06]

i have it in a order with amazon.de to dispatch next month with other releases...i don't really like jumbos and the fact that it doesn't have subtitles in english bugs me a lot. on the other hand, the cover looks really cool...what should i do? in a month that's going to be the most expensive ever; is 25 euros

 

[digitalbabe]

Tono, if you can't understand the movie, you'll have to decide if you want to swap the disc (if the case is that important to you). Good luck deciding!

 

[Wreck]

So no English, and no directors cut included? I actually like Jumbo's since they are pretty rare these days and look good when u got 3 + on your shelf. I traded off my USA edition thinking this would suffice lol.

I'll prolly pass this now or wait till its really cheap.

OP says it has Director's cut-did that change again? Maybe we need to update it....?

I think wreck might be mistaken. As far as I know, it DOES include the Director's Cut. However, it DOES NOT include the Super long TV version.

Also, has it be confirmed there are no english subtitles? That was my impression given the company history, but I saw no actual confirmation.
