I thought he told the fans to basically get ****** you basement dwelling ***** and to deal with it... Lol.

In any case I've been looking forward to a Terminator binge but have been holding off for this before I start.

Who JC was referring to - Basement dwellers

No Zavvi dispatch email lol but just came through door - LFG!

 

[Flloydo]

Was charged for this, Oppenheimer and Blazing Saddles last night but they haven't shipped yet.

Yeah same (and house of dragon). Still waiting dispatch

I was hoping HMV would’ve pushed all these early like zavvi have. Ideally need them all arriving Saturday because I’m not at mine all of next week from Monday

Zavvi order dispatched

So I just now got a Zavvi dispatch email so means it's for one I got through door today or getting another copy

Surprised US got the matte version while Europe gets gloss but I won't complain.

 

[paulboland]

I forgot I pre ordered with Zavvi Ireland and had payment taken on Tuesday
I got that order dispatched on Thursday

I also had on pre order with Amazon UK that was cheaper than using Zavvi due to prime free shipping but cancelled that order due to Zavvi already taking payment on Tuesday

Good to see Europe release has better finish than USA SteelBook it’s usually other way round that happens.

Dreadful finish. Looks matte with silver background to me.

It's full gloss.

 

[Flloydo]

Wait so we get a better finish than the US? Lol wtf

Not complaining, that’s awesome news

Looks like all 4 of my HMV orders will be arriving Monday now anyway. Possibly Oppenheimer tomorrow.

Full gloss?
Jesus that's the worst gloss I've ever seen.
Definitely doesn't look like the french one in the video. Not to me anyway.

Just had mine dispatch from HMV. Super excited to watch it in 4K

That's what happens when you cheap out and don't apply a white paint base first.

The silver part would have looked nice in white.
With a nice thick gloss over the whole thing.
A slight shimmer in a certain light would be my description of what we got.
Not impressed.

Just Delivered from Zavvi.

 

[K1SK1S]

Dispatched! First movie in a while I'll be opening and watching the day I get it. Usually sit around sealed just because of the backlog of orders.




Saturday night when those credits role...

So just T1 and T2 then, right? RIGHT?!

Hell no, I think for all it's faults 3 is really entertaining, Salvation is just fine, probably my least favourite, Genysis I really enjoy and Dark Fate is actually really good imo.
