Going to have to grab this one. I don't own it on blu yet either.

I agree the back is stunning but the front is terrible imo if they had used the back over the entire steel like blufans did with Oz it would have been awesome.

thebard · Nov 6, 2013

The only thing negative I can say about the front is that is is highly derivative of the standard amray release... but I'm ok with that, it's an iconic pose & all.

ordered!

My thoughts exactly. I like how they (Blufans) combine the front and back cover opposed to just having a random pic in the back like most steels... May get this if it goes on sale...

Can anyone confirm the languages on this one ? Is the the Mandarin language track in DTS- HD or just bog standard lossy Dolby Digital like the original US release ?.

The main one I wanted to get in this wave looks great. :LOL:

justboy · Nov 6, 2013

This one looks to be the best due to the stunning back art. The front isn't great, but it's not terrible.

That interior artwork is great.

Does anyone know if this is Region A locked?

I've seen one listed on ebay with an actual photo of the back slip & it has a Region A logo.

Could be incorrect though as Sin City is stated as Region A but is actually Region Free.

Great back cover! The front is really underwhelming which is why I didnt order it, but now I really want it. Nice inside art as well

kron · Nov 7, 2013

Looks good, glossy and awesome back cover are the stand out features. Pity about the blu-ray logo.

Yeah those back cards state A but it doesn't guarantee it. I know the original release was region free but not sure about this one?

i just opened this one up, and found one of the most amazing back artworks i have in my collection. besides two dents on the upper left side of the back it absolutely looks stunning! EEK!
