Hey guys, you guys sure that there'd be real title on the cover but not on the j-card? :D

the Bi-Lingual text will be on the J-card not on the actual Steelbook itself.
Any prior releases on Canada by Paramount have followed this format.
Generally the only ones with Bi-lingual text printed on them are the Alliance/EOne releases.
 
Yep same garbage steel as all the rest. Nice that those Canadians that want this lump of junk don't have to pay much postage/import tax though.:D

For sure. Pre-ordered more for completion sake than anything else. And yes, the price ends up being what is more reasonable for this "lump of junk".

Zavvi price confirmed way too high with this release as FS price sure to drop before actual release date.

Zavvi Price is an utter joke mate. With all the cancellations I predict it will drop just days after official release. lol
 
I just came from one of the local Future Shops & if you want the Bilingual version it is being release on the Eastern side of Canada, & the western side will be getting the English version. If you want one that isn't going to be in your region it has to be ordered online.

Actually I'm talking about the movie title, not the bi-lingual thingy :D, still unclear for me that this would be title-less (like the rest of the world) or not... I guess it'd be title-less, but I wish it wouldn't ... kinda confused tho :D

Hope so. Kick-Ass 2 UK and the Germany one ended up being different from each other, so it's not that far fetched for one to get a different spine.

Think I'll wait for official images/confirmation :) This is Disney after all. It's almost 99.9999% that this will be the exact same steel as the one being cancelled on mass elsewhere. Kick Ass 1 got different steels for UK/CAN/EU so wasn't that strange that it got the same for number 2. When it comes to Disney on the other hand they are tight fisted gits! :D

Surely us "English Canadians" in Ontario can get an English one lol EEK!
 
The peeps on the blu forums seem pretty ademant that its got titles on the spine, front and will be debossed.

UK'ers: how much does it work out with shipping when using the group buy method?

It's the same as for the rest of Europe 62,40$ (CAD?) though the base price of 38 $ including taxes might change. That's why i hope for none embossing :emb: it would kill my wallet.
 
If this really does have the title on the front and spine, hopefully it will have different back artwork. Just the removal of the nasty boxes would be great.
 
I might be interested in this
At the moment we don't know 100% yet if this version has the Title on the spine or on the Front

I will wait till we have full details confirmed

Not risking until I see 100% what this looks like
