Where did you have this info from? I read the review at BD and extras were all in HD and same as the European disc.

Exactly. Give me the best possible AQ/PQ. After that, I don't care if they put the extras on a VHS.

I have owned both discs. You can check the specs at AVS Forum.

Regarding best possble PQ, the law of diminishing returns should also be taken into account. The International release was encoded at a healthy 24 Mbps when compared to the US release which I think was encoded 29~30 Mpbs. We are not comparing Warner Vs. Paramount here.
 
another great release in 1 week! do you guys think they will put this on the shelves at mid night for the 24 hour stores? i always go at 8 AM but i dont know maybe some stores could do this thing!

is this gonna be sold in store or only online?

so far all the steelbook releases have been done in both ways!

Just saw the temporary charge on my card from Walmart for this, wonder how long in advance they'll ship it out...:movie:
 
so is it confirmed that this will actually have the "3D" text printed on the front and spine? if so, gonna be a pass for me since i would just sell the 3D disc and i don't want "3D" printed on a release that for me, isn't 3D.
 
i'm still having a hard time convincing myself to buy this...HORRIBLE movie...but great art AND personalized dog tags! :ohno::ohno::ohno:
 
Any confirmation on a slip for this release ? And speaking of slips, has there been one released with a steel here in the us ?

Well I finally found the picture I downloaded off the Walmart site when this title first appeared. This is very likely a slipcover for this but cannot be confirmed. Just for fun, here it is: (NOT OFFICIAL NOR CONFIRMED)

And no border :p

Looks like I can either open this one and keep all the rest sealed, or just return it since it might not be that special after all. Hmmm
 
Yeah. Major let down. It's not even embossed like we were led to believe. How is this a premium Steelbook? I'll settle for the European version now. At least that doesn't have the '3D' emblazoned on the cover.
