What is this? Type of packaging etc..

Haven't seen them before. But this looks like something I want as I've always wanted an edition with this artwork;)

if this has the same treatment as Dracula,
"sleek & innovative all-new clear case packaging"

This might be nice looking but its a bit of a letdown no new extras on the Disc

I will wait till this is out and a price drop before I consider getting this

There may not be any new extras but the whole point of the "Supreme Cinema Series" I believe is to showcase these films in a remastered 4K state. As long as they are being remastered, I'm happy! ;):thumbs:
 
Might just swap disc in my nice Kimchi release depending on PQ

Special Features:
  • 4K Restoration & Dolby Atmos Audio (Dolby TrueHD 7.1 compatible) of both the theatrical and extended international versions of the film
  • Featurettes:
    • Cast and Crew Look Back
    • Jean Reno: The Road to Léon
    • Natalie Portman: Starting Young
  • Original Theatrical Trailer
 
So these discs are basically super bit rate discs to maximize all the detail of the film. So they will have to be bare bones pressings or as little extras as possible.

Yes I believe it will be the same as the Sony mastered in 4k range. Little if any extras to improve the bit rates.
 
Well if if means getting the Fifth Element the best it's ever been since the laserdisc I'm all for it. I just wish they would pick better title for the range.
Sorry folks but I find Ford's Dracula very poor in the history of Dracula films.

What size are these? Are they the same size as a Blu ray amaray? G1 steelbook? G2 steelbook? I need to know how these might fit in the collection!!

I'm not 100% sure but going by the Bram Stoker's Dracula Supreme Cinema Series unboxing video looks like digibook size

The original release was region free so I'm guessing this will be the same.
Bram Stoker's Dracula Supreme Cinema Series has been reported as Region A locked
So its possible Leon will also be Region A locked

I was surprised to see the new 4K Bram Stoker Dracula Region A locked considering the previous Blu-ray was region Free

There's a good chance this could be locked aswell then. I'm not sure either why they would make the new release region locked when the last one was region free, it doesn't make sense.
