Hmm, lame as it might be, it's something. Actually, the little booklet doesn't look half bad.

Also, gauging by Borders' Website (scroll to bottom of "coupons"), it'll be at $22.99. Hey, that's not too shabby for anyone who has some Borders Rewards bucks gathering dust.

It does look good, and if this is the best there is I may have to get it!

Is that a Steelbook or just an "exclusive cover"? The other steelbooks on futureshop.ca say "Futureshop exclusive steel case" or "Special steel case" or something to that effect. Granted, steelbook or no, it's an awesome cover and the version I'll be ordering.

it does look like a nice booklet, but I think I'll pass. I got mine for 16.50 from WHV and it came yesterday. Wha-eva

I was at Costco (Sacramento) today and they had it for $20.99.

Is anyone offering a special packaging for this that will work in the US?? I really liked this movie and want to get something nice.

If anyone's interested, I'm currently digging through the 2-Disc edition and will be posting my review over the weekend. Long story short, though: it's a really well-rounded release and worth picking up!

And here I was looking forward to your long winded review, now what's the point?

Pretty screen captures, of course!

Ohhhh, purty!

take the discs out and throw the rest away. the region 3 set is the best. which you of course already own right??? shame the extras were naff and the image colour was a bit too red.

a very average film though. a few nice ideas and it looks nice but not half as good as some people liked to think.

Speedy has the BB and CC ads up. It looks like no exclusives from B&M retailers at all other than Borders.

I bought the R3 set for the amazing packaging. I've been lucky not to experience the warping of the package that so many others have mentioned. I'll probably pick up the 2 disc R1 too, just so that I can have some extras in English.

This was an incredible movie, and I can't wait to watch it again.

only problem with the Futureshop release will be the bilingual packaging...it will be ugly!

Canadian? That is to say, the bilingualism will be French/English and not Spanish/English?

yes, it will be French and English on the spine of the movie, so you'll get Pan's Labyrinth and Le Labyrinthe de Pan written on the side

Neither of which are the original title. Have R3, will just get R1 2 disc.

This is from the speedy's target thread. It looks like target is getting a sketchbook too...

The sketchbook that is mentioned in the Target ad is a special feature that is on the 2-disc already. So target is not getting anything exclusive. They just make it seem that way.

I am really surprised there isn't going to be a steelbook at Best Buy.....

I'm bummed there is no steelbook at BB

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??

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?
