Yep, I agree. I just thought from other pics that it was white. But it looks fine.

It's weighty enough in hand too. There's a real sturdy feel to it. Reminds of the steelbooks of old!

Good to hear about its build quality. Curious to see what Tony does regarding people who got Full-Slip B via the GB because of the spelling errors... will that make it more valuable? :giggle:
 
This looks like a great release....similar to the underrated (at the time) release of Her by Kimchi....

Can't decide between the Lenticular and Full Slip A....I was initially leaning toward the Full Slip A (which I generally prefer to lentis) but this Lenticular is looking really good....shame it isn't a slip box like Incredibles....
 
My Lenti was released from customs yesterday
On its way to me with delivery later today

I hope the bus not late again today by luck yesterday I did not miss the Postman

I have at least 3 Different parcels arriving today from various retailers
 
That is unfortunate about the spelling errors inside the disc @BluSteel2012 also, I haven't cared to pay attention but is this a Region-Free disc? My parents don't have a region-free player and if this is limited it would affect me watching this on the television downstairs and be forced to watch it in my room on my small screen. What is the cheapest Region-Free player out there nowadays anyways?

Yes, this one is Region A,B,C :thumbs:

Cheapest option for me was 2 3D Sony players.

One domestic one and one U.S. Region A one.

Can pick both up at reasanable prices now. Multi-region ones can run into a few hundred......
 
I thought this was an absolutely terrific movie and so pleased it won the Oscar if only to bring the disturbing subject matter to a wider audience .
Do tend to agree with some others though in that whilst the performances from a fine ensemble cast were all brilliant , I personally don't feel I could watch this too many times.Its very harrowing but deserves to be watched .

That's so bad it makes it look like a bootleg disc. Amateur hour.
It's funny you should say that.

I watched this with my wife, and when she saw the foreign writing on the menu options she asked where was it from and I replied Korea. She asked would I not be afraid that a Blu Ray from Korea would be a bootleg. And I replied, 'what, no?' 'Korea produce some of the best Blu Ray's!'

Then I went into the extras and found this!!!!! :rofl:

And yes, it does cheapen it somewhat. Although I understand English is not their first language.

I also found another error on the back of the numbering card. It says 'greather Boston area' instead of greater Boston area.......
