Don't think it's on mine? Unless spelt different?

English language is included, but it doesn't appear on the Universal menu, only when you see Ex_Machina interactive main menu. At first choose like portuguese or whatever, then later on click the audio button and english is there.

Thanks guys, thought I was going mad

It's understandable....... I think this is the first Universal release I've bought that doesn't default to the English language version........

100% agreed... it´s an amazing edition

 

[nicblue]

Received mine today along with chappie and T3, all great editions. Even though I'm trading this particular one away to another ninja, this one looks/feels extremely cool. I hope FA keeps up the awesome packages (lenti issues aside!)

 

[goufcustom]

agreed with @nicblue but I do hope FA gets more and more WEA steelbooks in the future cause I believe they could do better that just dress up the WWA steelbooks...

 

[nicblue]

It seems like they're moving in that direction @goufcustom with wick, birdman, child 44 (maybe?) dredd and sabotage.

I think from a business perspective it's easier and more profitable for them to dress up a WWA. Some WWAs are very good quality, T3, maze runner and ex for example. Others are duds like chappie (I like the chappie steel, it just feels cheap).

Maybe 2016 we'll see more WEA packages. I do still enjoy a dressed up WWA though. Sorry for long post lol I'm trying to kill time while I wait to pick up GF from work

 

[InAFalsetto]

DREDD IS wea and looks epic atm!!

 

[Aw 83]

Indeed Dredd looks awesome happy I joined in the GB for it.

Got mine today Thanks to @carllenc

Got mine today Thanks to @carllenc

Lookin sweet! still patiently waiting for my copies.

 

[Steelselecta]

Got mine today as well as Ghost Rider, stunning packages!

In regards to the scratched lentis, I have to say, I think if you look more closey to the lentis of all of FA packages, you can see many faint scratches on them. Every single lenti I have, shows some sign of scratches and even some sort of dirt mark.

Maybe it really is the norm, I dunno

Well I open all my steels and I have thoroughly inspected each filmarena lenticular magnet and the worst thing I have found is some dust marks or fingerprint smudges both of which were easily rectified. So damaged lenti definitely is not the norm.

Congratulations @DADDYCOOL187 it's an awesome package enjoy it my friend.

 

[Headhunter]

Wow, you guys weren't kidding about the lenti on this... I thought I'd wait and see for myself and got mine yesterday and it's scratched to s**t. It's in an appalling state. Did they really say they wouldn't make any more to replace these??

Yep. They said there weren't any more due to making the exact amount required to someone previously. When I complained they basically just said if you don't like it send the whole package (not just the lenti) back to them and they'll give a refund.

Sorry to hear that pal. Drop FA an email so they log the complaint. It's all we can do. Let's hope they take more care when manufacturing the next films.

Thanks @InAFalsetto and @MrBMT. I'll send FA an email and a piece of my mind...
