The pictures from DVDFromKorea look awesome and if it's really limited to 5000 copies I definately want to go ahead and get it. Are we sure it's 3 discs? I only see 2 pictured and most sites only list 2 discs. The absence of a soundtrack CD would not keep me from pulling the trigger on this though.
As for the set, it's 2 discs. The 3 disc set (so far) is the HMV exclusive which contains the 2 other films (see earlier in the thread). I ordered two copies last night for myself and a friend. I wouldn't be suprised if this sold out. I know word of this release is just starting to hit some more mainstream forums outside of "international" or "arthouse" forums like this one. |

LOL, I never meant I was going to show it to the kids. I only meant that I only get to go to the cinema for kiddie movies. My oldest is 5 and I don't think she'd be the least bit interested in seeing this unless there are Care Bears or freakin' My Little Ponies in it. You guys gave me a good laugh. She's wandered in on the occassional Japanese film and looks at me cross eyed because she can't comprehend what they are saying. Glad to hear it was released in Spanish though. I'm down for the Korean LE. I just hope the subs are good.

ps-has anyone else here been called a 'packaging whore?' |
I'm guessing I'd have to buy a region free dvd player for the 3 disc LE huh?

Maybe not bluesilo. Go to the following site, look up your DVD player, and see if there is a remote hack for you to change your DVD player to R0 so that it will play anything:
http://www.videohelp.com/dvdhacks Even if the player you have right now doesn't have a code, and it seems like most DVD players do, you can buy a solid R1 DVD player for $50 or less that will have a code for you to use. |
Anyone have problems signing up at yesasia? Every time I attempt to I get this:
"Error - Page Error We are sorry, but there has been an error in loading the page you requested. Please make sure that the URL is correct. If you are not sure of the file's URL, or if you need help about your order, please feel free to contact our customer service department." Blech! |

Also, as mentioned previously, the P/Q and audio qualities of Spectrum releases for higher profile films are generally stellar!! I can't wait for its release. |
got my YesAsia order in, and the SA5OFF code worked for me! Can't wait to finally see this.
|
R1 is in May : http://www.fangoria.com/news_article.php?id=3644
|
I hope it comes out on hd-dvd somewhere in the world, b/c ill be importing this for sure
|
If any of you hear anything about subs, post right away please. :)
|
Also the extra. I'm still hoping that the extra may be in English or have English sub.
|
Well, I'm not gonna say how, but I ended up seeing the copy that's on YesAsia and DVDFromKorea, and the subtitles are great.
|
If you aren't BSing, let me ask you this. Are there English subtitles on the extras?
|
Not BSing, however I just saw the film. I didn't receive the disc with the special features but I'm sure that it was this copy as there were korean subtitles as well as english on the disc.
|
Arrrrggghh matey.

I love the look of the Korean release, but the New Line release looks kickin for a change on a R1'er. And I'm certain New Line's extras will all be subbed. |

Damn! I couldn't resist :brickwl2:
I'm sure I'll buy the HD-DVD as well. http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w...inzer/PAN3.jpg |
So I also managed to see the first disc of the R3.
Is it just me, or is the transfer not that great? It could have been the player it was on (malata), but the blacks had noticable noise and looked crushed. I only watched part of the first disc and skipped around. It was very obvious in the black area, and brownish areas seemed to have noise also. Hopefully it was the setup, because I really didn't find it that pleasant to look at. It wasn't awful, but it sure as hell wasn't impressive. The menu's looked good, and the sub's were done well btw. Has anyone else got their copy or seen this yet? Please tell me I'm wrong here. I'm still waiting on my R3 from YesAsia, but what I saw is worrying me a bit. |
For those of you who saw the 1st disc of the r3 version. Be aware if you aquired this through certain channels & it's a DVD5, that what you got was probably a compressed & partially stripped down disc. Those groups that release those discs usually shrink down & rip most extras to make a dual layer DVD9 disc fit a DVD5 disc. Just because you saw artifacts, blocks, noise, or off colors does not necessarily reflect how the movie will actually be on a 100% non-manipulated original.
PS: No one has got their r3 box yet since the DVD does not come out until the end of the month. |
