Neo_Reloaded posted:At least the original mono track has the correct audio. I don't like these 7.1 reimaginings for classic films anyway. True, I feel the same as well. Haven't popped my disc in yet - do you know whether the default audio is the mono or the 7.1? 12/21  Christmas is coming a few days early this year. The case better be brown too.

doctor thodt posted:The European set is a long fold-out digipak like the Quadrilogy DVD set. gently caress. Does anyone know why the difference exist? It seems dumb to release both sets looking exactly the same but for the inside to be different. I might cancel my pre-order and get the US release instead. I've been looking for motivation to get a region free player for ages.

I figured this could go here, seeing as how it has to do with HD: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3358393&pagenumber=1&perpage=40#post383455556 Two 6-foot HDMI cables for $1.89 (after coupon) plus free shipping.

Alien Anthology is region free, yes. Basically it comes down to paying $95 for better packaging vs. $55 for the UK release.

Apocalypse Now How nice it will be to have a version that hasn't been cropped by a cinematographer who's lost his loving mind.

I think the original 70mm "roadshow" version had credits entirely in printed form in a program book. The general release on 35mm had credits added. Fantasia is one of the only other films to do this. The only title on its roadshow version was a slide projected onto the curtain during the intermission.

Neo_Reloaded posted:I've had Downfall from the UK in my collection for years, so I don't know why you're not seeing it. To tell you the truth, I didn't realize the region selection on search reset every time you visit DVDaf. Now I can actually find it and add Downfall. The gently caress. Secondly, I've tried adding Proposition, and for some reason, when I hit submit, it denoted the entry as being... withdrawn. What the hell? I'm not spending another 20-30 minutes doing all that poo poo.

Ah, looks like Gary removed that bit from the review page. I guess there was some issue about disc art misprints, where the special features disc was actually the feature and vice versa (or something like that).

doctor thodt posted:Arrow UK's first print of Battle Royale will be limited to 5,000 copies, in a 3-disc edition with exclusive special features that will not appear on subsequent releases. No word yet on region coding, but Arrow codes their discs region free whenever they possibly can. Make sure to pre-order if you want to get in on the limited edition (about $25 shipped to the US): Thanks to doctor thodt for this post; skimmed this thread a few days ago to find out when Inception was coming out, saw this and immediately pre-ordered. For anyone else who was interested, they announced just now that it will be a region free bluray.

BitterAvatar posted:So I guess Full Disclosure edition is a worthwhile purchase? For awhile it seemed like I kept hearing different information about everything but the site seems to suggest that it is awesome. The only differences are the packaging (the 3-disc comes in a DVD-sized fold-out digipak, the 2-disc comes in a regular blue keepcase) and the inclusion of the 48 page booklet and Hearts of Darkness (in full 1080p). Up to you to decide whether that's worth the extra $20 or so, but to me, owning HoD in HD is invaluable.

Does anyone else's BD of The Thing have sync issues? It's only in one scene, when MacReady (Russell) is in the caterpillar, talking to some bearded guy, but the dialogue and the mouth movements are way off.

I actually do think I noticed a syncing issue for a split second on The Thing. I thought it was in my mind though. Apocalypse Now has bumped Patton down to my second favorite BD. It took me a long time to make the switch from DVD but I'm so happy I did. It really is worth it. It's been fun giving away all my DVDs that have been replaced as well.

Even if it's only for 30 seconds, why don't studios catch this stuff before they release it? Would the issue have affected my purchase? Probably not, because I don't have the DVD, but I do have the DVD for Saving Private Ryan, and I'm not getting the Blu-Ray because I know about the sync issue that has.
