The film was ok but not that good and i decided to buy this because of the cover. I remembered the german version i bought then after i watched it then i sold it. But this cover is very good and i will keep this defenitely

Its one of those films that I find easy to watch on a Friday night when you can't be arsed with watching anything heavy

Can't wait for my copy to arrive

Whats the transfer like on this film? Heard mixed reviews on the original version?

That's what I call a spot on review. Eye fodder nothing much more, brain in neutral and let it all wash over you; just hope you don't fall asleep

I don't think so. Even if the SB looks nice, this is not such a popular title.

It's now riding behind Oldboy, Prometheus, Transformers as most popular title.

I don't trust the "Best selling" order. Why is The Bourne Trilogy still available if ranked #2, it has been out for awhile. Moreover if I'm correct, Battle Royale has never been #1 and it sold out in 1 week whereas Prometheus is #1 and not sold out yet.

Pretty sure BR was No 1 for a few days last week.

Prometheus has a larger run (8K) so would take much longer to sell out (especially if it was just fractionally the best seller all the time).

I think it's glitched as Prometheus and Bourne Trilogy are always at the top of the results. Apart from those two I think the rest are in order.

This one looks great (until you get closer and see just like Watchmen it is spattered with missing paint chips )

Looks like there were major errors on the production line of this latest Paramount wave - time to stop doing glossys and return to matte , they obviously don't know how to produce glossys.

 

[Malky78]

^ That's pretty bad. Personally I would return and try another copy.

 

[zesty]

Have to agree with TobyBunny of all the ones Ive opened they all have small defects hidden by the card in most cases

 

[Scarface]

yeah def return that, both of my watchmen have paint chips/marks on them, one isn't that bad the other has a big paint chip on the front so it will be getting sent back which will be the 3rd steel in the last week to get sent back to play.

 

[lgans316]

Just try erasing the paint chips with a permanent marker provided the color matches the background.

Better IMHO to send the things back and let Play know this isn't good enough. Only way we'll make a difference is if we refuse to accept below par stuff.

Oh and mine just turned up with a nice dent in the front, so it's straight back in the post to Play.

 

[Blu-devil]

I believe it's actually the card that is causing all the missing paint. I have opened several steels with paper or card sheets only to find wear marks. It's the acid in the ink or paper that causes this.

 

[SimonLDT]

Nah, it's not the card causing this. Something sharp is chipping the paint.

 

[TobyBunny]

My theory is it's neither of those . i believe it's a fault with the roller or whatever applies the paint.
Either misses a spot as a printer can do occasionally or is running out of ink.

 

[SimonLDT]

Here's my crappy pictures, but hopefully it shows how bad this is.

 

[Sigill]

Some of these pics are nasty. Lets hope it's just a few that are affected and the majority of them are ok.
