Got dispatched this and True Lies with DPD. Aliens still waiting

Just arrived!

Excuse the amateur photography but tried to highlight the decent embossing on the slip. Similar to recent releases from James Cameron films.

Thank god UHD disc is on the bottom and not up.
Stacking these discs while there is easy solution is absolute clusterf**k. At least they did one sh*t right and bonus disc will take all the heat. Will throw all these straight into trash along BD.

I'm having to import this with having no release in the UK. It said arriving today from Amazon.com which was release day but when I clicked on the tracking it wasn't even despatched. After contacting them they said oh we've none left, so really well handled by them.

They stopped the release in the UK because of the scene where the rat is held underwater and struggles to breathe.

Oh yeah. Now I remember.

I just ordered Nordic versions of this and Aliens.

I'd get it from somewhere else too but Amazon have put me down for a full refund and keep From the reviews it sounds like all the Cameron 4K releases are not a natural looking image and they've been the victim of digital processing with a lot of grain removed.

I don't have high expectations for PQ for either release. But Abyss is a must have and Aliens ... well ... ordered as it was available in 4K *shrughs* seen it million times.

I haven't properly sat down and watched The Abyss since I was 14, watching it in my bedroom on a 14" CRT TV with VHS, so it's gonna be a big leap to a 55" OLED with 4K HDR
