CD-Wow has this R3 listed as coming out on Oct 26...is this correct?

Also, they list the extras for the R2 version, but not the R3. Are they the exact same extras on both versions?

I wish the R3 would be just like that, heh.

Zodo

Have you heard otherwise? CD-wow says the R3 version is a 2 disc set, but I just haven't seen the details listed for the R3 version anywhere.

Brent L

I haven't heard otherwise, no.

I'm just saying, since I don't know for sure, that I hope they are the same.

RichDB10

Yes..and don't forget if you buy it from Amazon UK you can get it in a shiny metal tin

Slowpc

That tin might be nice, but i think i will just wait, make sure the region 3 has all the same features, and order that....

buckee1

I ordered both just to be safe. If the R3 has the same features as the R2, I'll cancel the R2.

Zodo

One would think that details on the R3, other than it being a 2-disc set, would have been released by now. It's supposedly coming out in like a week.

I havent met a person who didnt like it, its a stunning film and needs to be seen on a massive screen really.

Brent L

Well now you have met me.

I haven't met a single person in the "real world", people away from the computer", who does like it. As a matter of fact, when I watched it in the theater everyone was laughing and making jokes about how horrible it was. The thing is, EVERYONE was doing so, it was like a big MST3K party for all of us.

I, Robot's dispatch date at Cd-Wow is Oct 26th, all other korean sites says Novemver 4th. Do they usually send items in time?

scrotalsac187

I ordered Troy Region 3 from CD-WOW, which had a dispatch date on 10/15, and I received it on 10/18. That would mean you should receive I, Robot a few days after 10/26 if the pattern holds up.

Brent L

Ladies and gents, I KNEW this would happen after the issue we had with the R3 version of Shaun of the Dead. I, Robot has a new release date and I am not a happy camper...

Release/Despatch Date: Tuesday 23 Nov

SuckaMC

I was about to write about the release change too. That blows!

digitalfreaknyc

This makes no sense. Koreandvds had it at November 23rd for a while and then changed it to Nov 4. It's still at the 4th. Are we sure about this?

candyrocket786

That's the Korean version. CDwow is carrying the HK version.

I guess they both have different release dates.

digitalfreaknyc

Is there a difference between the two? HK and Korean?

candyrocket786

I believe just the release dates....the content should be the same.

Zodo

So where's the cheapest place to get the Korean version?

Zodo

Now CDWOW just lists the R3 version as a "special edition" and doesn't say it's 2 discs in the title.

Does anyone have a confirmation on exactly what extras the R3 special edition will have?

I may go ahead and cancel my pre-order if no one's sure what's on the freakin thing.

Romerojpg

cdwow do it all the time, they just knocked back Alien Vs predator 2 months!!!!!!! muppets!

Michael Corvin

I'm curious as well. What is the difference between the R2 & R3? I was looking at amazon.uk(for the shiny tin) and it doesn't list any details. Is there something better about the R3 that I am missing?

Zodo

Just to let you guys know, CD-WOW updated the R3 details and it looks like it has all the R2 extras (although it doesn't list the sentient machines featurette, but i'm assuming that's a mistake)...

Also, DVDTimes now lists the following run times for the extras on the R2 second disc:

Day Out of Days: The I,Robot Production Diaries (96:18)
CGI and Design (34:24)
Sentient Machines: Robotic Behaviour (35:07)
Three Laws Safe: Conversations about Science Fiction & Robots (30:30)
Deleted Scenes (6:38)
Visual Effects breakdowns (14:15)

Cancelling my R2.
