Silmido 2-disc, DTS - Under $10 at CD-wow. Is this a good deal?

Brent L · 10-04-04, 12:40 AM

I was looking over the coming soon section at CD-wow and I noticed this release which comes out this coming Thursday. Over at CD-wow, they list the following:

Quote:

Over 50mins making Of featurette (Chinese/ English Subitiles selected):
Filming process
Making of features
Shot handling
Special effects
Theatrical Trailer
Trailers (Kill Bill 1, 2, Battle Royle 1, 2)
Stars' Files
DTS 5.1 Korean/ DD 5.1 Cantonese audio
1.85 anamorphic widescreen

Do you think this one will be a fine release, or should I just pick up the LE of this film? Are there any English subs on the special features on the LE?

Either way, I'd say that getting this two-disc set of this film for under $10 is a deal.

Very good deal indeed!
On the LE there's no subtitles on any of the extras. There's not even english menus.

May have to take a look at this one... I have cd-wow vouchers burning a hole in my pocket.

At that price I'd say definitely pick it up. It's not the best film to come out of Korea in recent memory but it trounces a large amount of American cinema and stands on its own as an entertaining and emotionally engaging film.

I dunno where you saw this on CD-WOW for under $10, but it keeps coming out to like $14 and change after conversion...

Yeah, it's coming up as £7.99 for me, which is more than $10. DDDHouse has it for $10.89, though.

It's the same process as the I, Robot thread, if you are familiar with that.

DrGerbil · 10-04-04, 03:14 PM

If worked properly, you can pick it up for £4.49, which is $8.00.

What link do you possibly use to get it that cheap?

A £1.50 off voucher link + £2.00 coupon.

Brent L · 10-04-04, 03:29 PM

I only have a £1.00 coupon, where do you get the 2?

It was a pain to get, as they didn't send the coupons out until days later and many times, not at all.

Brent L · 10-04-04, 03:46 PM

Oh yes, that, I forgot about it. I've never received one either, so there goes that.
