Zoom and Zavvi still have this listed as 2D and 3D. Amazon are probably just OOS which could be the case considering they were cheapest when pre-orders went live..

Btw, Is this now a 4K UHD + BD release or just a single BD release?

It's 3D + 2D Blu-ray Steelbook
Passengers 3D (Includes 2D Version) Limited Edition Steelbook Blu-ray
Amazon UK also list steelbook as (3D Blu-ray + Blu-ray)

Swedish version?

 

[Ranavalone]

Swedish version?

That's the Scandinavian four-country (Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland) release. Norwegian, Danish and Finnish ratings on the J-card at front.

Swedish version?[/QUOTE
As confirmed by our friend from Finland . . . which does not mean that this will not be the international steelbook.

I hope the USA Best Buy version has Chris and Jen on the front too. I like the look of that.

Release date changed again on amazon. Don't know exactly to what date but it's around May 7th or 8th.

 

[bigfub]

Email from Amazon says it's back to the 8th May again.

Same image now showing for France as for the Nordic countries so looking more and more like this is what we'll be stuck with in the U.K. / THE International edition

Yikes. That's not a pretty steelbook. It's got so much going on and none of it feels cohesive. Good thing Europe's got FilmArena. That design is NICE.

Edit: Thinking about it a little more if this is the European release then that'll be what's inside FilmArena's smashing slip. Eeeek. This is one of those times that the lenticular magnet will come in handy...

Very bad bad news....

Very bad bad news....

Just because that's available in Europe doesn't mean Zavvis will be the same.

They've already revealed exclusive artwork for Arrival.......

And the German steelbook is also showing the same artwork as Zavvi.....

I like this one. If it's gloss I'll get it.

In UK Arrival is a eOne movie, while internationally it's a Sony movie, so it's quite normal it'll have a different artwork; Passengers is a Sony movie in Europe, included UK, that's my concern
