Me too. I hope they don't start doing them all in these boxes, but as one off (or two off), I don't mind it at all.

Those white adverts are an eyesore though.

What does the KR one look like?
Is there a JP in the works?

As a complete package, TW wins. From a slip perspective the UK one wins by a mile as it blends with the Steelbook artwork nicely. Rating logo sucks but even the Korean slip got a ratings sticker. I regret buying the KR SB.

KR has a plain blue slip. Shows more of the lenticular than this box.

None are absolutely perfect, but this is the best Life of Pi there is.

I actually like the release. I am happy that Taiwan went through the trouble to make an ultimate release with all the bonus items. Yes they went way too far on the advertisements but i think as a community HDN members can relate there thoughts to JSDVD so that future releases do not get the same over advertised cover. If this release had one less annoying ad covering the mandarin title that we all love i think we would have more favorable opinions.

The advertising looks gross. Terrible decision to do that. Glad I have the HK & Korea one coming

LIFE OF PI

Arrived Today!!

Did not think I was going to like the Box / Slip thing it came in, but once you take of all that horrible advertising the quality on this is really excellent.

This thing is freaking awesome man, how can you not like this boxed-slip, I knew that those white label adverts on the front where stickers, take them off and voila you got yourself one hell of a package, earth my man congrats

I personally dig this over the Korean one, see you get the exact lenti steel inside slip-less to view it in its whole glory, see TW always think about these simple things unlike others, see the term if its not broken don't fix it does not work all the time and especially on these lenti-steels man, I'm still getting the KR one of course but without a doubt this thing is the winner, why partially hide the true beauty of the lenticular card behind another card (ie slip), like I said before I like it... nuff said...

Got to admit DJ its a Winner,Winner, Chicken Dinner!!!

 

[wshine15]

yesss!!! I ordered it. it is the best version of this movie i think.

 

[hayemaker]

Nice pics, earth - did you have any consideration about keeping this one sealed, or is there no point with those awful adverts?

 

[lgans316]

Is there any other version that comes with the goodies?

 

[Starling]

The best of them all, and by a Taiwanese Director. You know it makes sense!

 

[cartman69]

Nice one mate, glad you're happy with it. I dunno how you get your shipments so quick though, mine has been stuck in customs for 3 days now It always seems to take at least a week for JSDVD shipments to reach me. Same for Korean shipments too. Just soooo slow in customs clearance.

The whole box is shrink wrapped with the typical Taiwan plastic. The P club sticker is on top of the shrinkwrap and can be removed. The Panasonic advert along the bottom is underneath the shrinkwrap.

That means if you want to keep it sealed, the advert stays.
