Preordered for now, but will cancel if it turns out to be a single disk butchered version in comparison to the normal US release.

Artwork is now up on HMV, and as you can see it's the same as the German version that AgentMcQueen posted above...

2 disc or 1 disc?

2 disc or 1 disc?

Yep - I'd love to see HMV confirm this as well.

Their product pages are so lacking of any useful information its no wonder they are going down the pan.....

 

[Blu-devil]

seeing as the amaray on pre sale @ amazon.uk is 2 disc directors cut, we can safely assume this will be the same.

HMV have quietly dropped the price on this.

Currently down from £17 to £15

Do hmv have a pre order price promise thing or should I just re order.

They say they do, but I'd re-order just to be safe... that's what I did.

 

[Mrshred]

Will do, taa

 

[SaberTooth]

Hey, I see that the regular UK amray also releasing now is the Extended Director's Cut (124m), which also includes the standard Theatrical Version on the 1st Disc, and special features/extras on the 2nd disc.

There is no reason why HMV's steel shouldn't contain all that same content, right guys?

Currently £15 on HMV.com for those interested

Here are some pictures of the Steelbook from Finland, I would guess that the HMV exclusive will be exactly the same design wise. Thanks to Hooligaani at AV Forums:

I think it looks pretty good apart from the spine. Who's idea was it to place the title so high up?

 

[Sigill]

Looks to be the same artwork worldwide on this. I don't mind the writing being high on the spine as there is some nice artwork below it. Its unusual to get high quality artwork on a spine so I'm happy with it.

 

[Noodles]

Looks pretty nice overall. I would rather have just had a larger image of Beckinsale and Biel on the back though.

 

[PS3_Kiwi]

Wasn't sure if I would get this, but thanks to snooloui's pics of the Finnish release., I will now be getting it for sure. Like the back art with Kate and Jessica,

Just to let any Irish members on here know that this will NOT be released over here in Ireland. Went to preorder it this morning and the chap said it's been discontinued since November. Something to do with the Ultraviolet copy not working over here or something.

Surprising, considering The Dark Knight Rises had an Ultraviolet copy and they stocked that

Looks like HMV are busy pulling out the Steelbook releases exactly on the release date to avoid the 20% discount code being applied.

Well doesn't that suck, looks like I'll be ordering this online after xmas, hopefully it'll be a bit cheaper by then, not building my hopes up for that lol, HMV really are dropping the ball with the lack of steelbooks we get in store here in ireland.

pass on the hmv one will be getting the amazon france or the german one

Bad decision.

Amazon france - It has some printed text in French

Amazon germany - expensive than the UK release

HMV uk - 15 GBP. Cheapest amongst all versions.

i'm getting the german edition and would rather pay an extra 5 quid knowing that i'l actually receive it before xmas and also in excellent packaging, hmv are just too unreliable these days.
