Are we positive the Future Shop steelbook is going to be half in French? :P

And what is on the Spanish region version that's not on the 2-disc? I wonder if there's a chance of a Region 1 3-disc release as well.

Errrmmm.....maybe not!!....if you are lucky enough to be fluent in French you may just want to pick up the French 4 disc!!! edition :-

Any more pics of the book? That does look better than the R3 which I do own. If it has English subs, DTS and different extras I might just go for it.

Going by previous Wild Side releases of non english dialogued films you can forget this having English subs.

The additional material relates to interviews and a press conference at the Cannes film festival and of course a soundtrack CD comprising one of the discs in the set.

So you know how everyone thinks?? :hscratch:

What are you trying to say here? That if I or anyone else liked it and enjoyed it we should not have because you thought it was average and we were fooled into thinking it would be great? Or the movie was not as good as you had hoped based on what you had heard/read?

Anyone know if the black levels are better in the R1 version than the Korean one? It seemed to me the black was more grey than black on the R3 version.

The BB exclusive is to be a lithograph. At least in Canada.

Could someone give me a source on the Future Shop exclusive cover actually being a steelbook and not just an alternate cover or slipcover?

crap, that thing is beautiful!

Nice review

Yay! 4 and half stars for A/V.

That's what I'm talkin about!!!

I just watched the movie and I'm not sure what the fuss is all about... Was the movie great? No it was just ok. I don't understand why it won awards, nor do I understand why it got so much buzz. In my opinion it was very average and I kept wishing for more.

Ok.

Thanks for the
:crap:

Picked up the Borders Exclusive Pan's Labyrinth 2-Disc Edition earlier this morning. It did, in fact, ring up at $22.99 (as marked). The Exclusive booklet comes packaged INSIDE the actual case, much like a full booklet insert inside the clasps. It's a nice little booklet that's worth a trip to Borders to pick up at the same price as other B&M retailers. Any worries about the exclusive not fitting in the case should be laid to rest, as it was made to be insert-ish. :up:

Plus, the wonderful slipcover is raised around the faun's body. Though the 2-disc artwork wasn't wholly impressive at first (though I still liked it), this little slipcover is actually very, very nice looking. :D

Does this thread only allow high praise of this film?

I stopped by Target and they only got in 6 copies of the 2-disc set. Of course, they had a billion copies of the classic Stomp the Yard. Slipcover is very nice. I hope I'm able to watch the film today. Unfortunately, I missed the theatrical run.

Really? Only 6. I was going to go there as well, but not till after 4pm.

Anyone else find a limited amount at Target?

I just don't think you are accustomed to great cinema.

Yes, the local Target here in MA had exactly 6 copies also...They had two in the main front new release rack and then 4 in their back new release rack....One trick you can use at Target, take the dvd to one of their electronic price checkers, scan the 2 disk set, the display will show the price and also look and see where it says 'More In Stockroom: No', that will tell you if they have more...I was at my Target at 8:30 this morning....Good Luck

I was surprised. They had about 30 copies of the 1-disc. They advertised the 2-disc set, so you'd think they'd have at least 10-15 copies.

This thread is to discuss the DVD (picture, sound, features, artwork, etc.). A better place to trash (or parise) the film is here:

Pan's Labyrinth

I guess this is the general consensus with all Targets? Anyone know if CC has a bigger stock?

Just reserved a copy of the Borders exclusive for in-store pickup :thumbsup:

Just did the same. :thumbsup:

Just picked up the 2-disc version at Best Buy. They had a ton...

Fiancee is going to pickup the Borders version for me today & someone is going to pickup the Futureshop exclusive for me this week.

I picked up the 2-disc at my local Borders for 22.99. They had about 20 of the 2-discers, but only about half of those had the sticker on the front that said "Borders exclusive booklet inside" or something to that effect. I'm thinking that the copies without that sticker might not have the booklet.

Anyone know the difference between the normal insert and the Border's insert? Picked up the Border's exclusive and am wondering if I am missing a standard booklet or if this is all there should be. I got a 16 page booklet with "An Inside Look at the Making of Pan's Labyrinth" on the bottom and a picture of the faun embracing the little girl.

Yea, you got it. See post #102 this thread.

As mentioned in my review, the only insert included (aside from retailer exclusives, of course) is a promotional booklet for Picturehouse. In other words, you're not missing anything of importance.

After debating it, I picked up the FutureShop 2-disc version with the exclusive (slip)cover. I haven't opened it yet though.

Can anyone confirm if the actual cover art under the slipcover matches the Mike Mignola artwork on the slipcover, or is it just the regular 2-disc coverart under there?

Under the slip cover is the exact same cover as the slip.

Sweet .. it would suck if they just put the exclusive slipcover over the regular cover art. It's still no steelbook, but it'll do.

Picked up the 2-disc at the local Best Buy this afternoon. There were still 15 or so left when i grabbed mine around 2.

I checked out the Best Buy (Canada) exclusive with the bonus lithograph ... the bonus seemed very disappointing though, so I passed. It was numbered, though. Anyone know what the total production run is for these lithographs?

Also, HMV Canada has a booklet packed in with the 2-disc release. Anyone know if this is the same as the Borders exclusive booklet in the US?

That's awesome because the Mignolia art is very slick. I think I'll keep mine sealed when it arrives then.

my local BB had many copies of the 2 disc edition as well.

what's the point of keeping sealed & not enjoying the actual discs?
