CDWow has 'Curse of the golden flower' for preorder
 

Does anyone know anything about this release? It doesn't seem to be HK as I checked dddhouse and others. I'd be interested in this if it was a decent release with decent audio/video, but am wary after the 'House of flying daggers' debacle. Any advice?

Here's what the HK/Edko looks like.

I would just wait until Sony eventually releases it for Region 1. It will probably have a nice Making of Doc with subtitles and probably a Zhang Yimou commentary with subtitles like House of Flying Daggers did.

Also, the US release is only about a month after.

Or you can wait for the ultimate wooden set with 3 discs from China with a knife or the 3 discs from Korea in a nice digipack or maybe the 4 discs from Japan box set :)

Or I was hoping the boxed set would come with a bouquet of golden flowers or at least some seeds to plant :)
