L'empire des Loups (Jean Reno's latest)
Jean Reno's latest film Empire of the Wolves/L'empire des Loups is now officialy across movie theaters in Europe. The French critics are the least to say "impressed" with it...so expect a distant future R1 release (if at all...similar to the Corsican). Directed by Chris Nahon (Kiss of the Dragon).
Official site:
http://www.lempiredesloups.com/
Trailer available after the page loads up (select Tres Haut Debit for HD). Allocine also reports that substantial behind-the-scenes footage has been prepared for the future DVD release.
Ciao,
Pro-B

Fnac does! But I assume that Amazon.fr will get it up on the site soon. There are three different versions as it appears....a lot of extra materials. See all three versions here:

I don't have a detailed review yet (esp, one in English) but the Black disc looks packed with extras. Given the fact that TF1 is handling this I am going on a limb here (and when RAMA or Attitude come out with their review you can prove me wrong) and will tell you that this will be a 9 or a 10 presentation. The film did so poorly with the critics TF1 will certainly do their best to sell this film to Reno fans. With other words...should be a top notch presentation.

Let me answer your question...the black case is a limited edition of the film which will be issued only in 25 000 numbered sets!!
Hope this helps,

I was wrong, the Collector (black box) edition is out, a friend of mine saw the 1DVD version for 19.90 Euros and the 3DVD Collector for 26.99 Euros at her local store but no 2DVD box.
