Spoiler

- The steelbook illustration is by Krzysztof Domaradzki.
- The artwork for the slipbox was used previously for the Oldboy vinyl LP. It was co-ordinated by Nicolas Winding Refn, the director of Drive, and illustrated by Laurent Durieux. The director of Oldboy Park Chan-wook wanted one of our editions to feature this artwork so we reached out to Milan Records and illustrator Laurent Durieux. You'll be able to see more of the artwork since parts of the top and bottom were cropped out for the vinyl LP.

I'm with you there sport - all the way

From the bit we have gleaned, this looks like it will be their biggest release yet - and being a homegrown film,, I imagine they want to make it a real showcase. It's certainly one I want.

 

[djjez83]

I would say they are aiming for minimum 4 different editions for this

 

[Aw 83]

Don't mind the wait as their qualities are always awesome and hoping for the same with this release...

This is just so unnecessary. If there is news, or ANY word on ANY release...there are a dozen people who'll update these threads as soon as it hits. At this rate, with these mundane posts... every person who's subbed to this thread will receive an email that brings nothing but disappointment.

Just let it be already.

[Aw 83]

Got excited in the hope of a pre order date set oh well we're still in the waiting period at the moment.

 

[Kobi]

Do love a PA steel.

 

[Giovanni cortes]

Finally a reason to upgrade my dvd box set! I'm on this

 

[InAFalsetto]

This film makes me feel dirty though. Not exactly one to enjoy with the family.

 

[Tchalla]

Sorry guys, it's not great, BUT you can see a new illustration for Oldboy in this collection of artworks.

The coming out of the elevator one is pretty sweet!

 

[Noodles]

I love both illustrations they've done for this so far. Can't wait to see the final product!

 

[SimonLDT]

Wish they'd just hurry up and release this one, it's been announced for ages.

 

[RepoMan90]

Is that an Ip Man poster?! Is that a tease? Please tell me that's a teaser for a future release.

But back on track that's a great looking piece of art for Oldboy, it looks like this is hopefully coming along nicely. I remember Plain saying that this has been the most expensive dvd/blu ray production to have taken place in Korea, so fingers crossed we hear something more concrete soon, but its nice to have a little tease at least.

Oh and I must say, that is one damn fine piece for Tinker Tailor too!
