Just arrived from HMV, it is a parcel certainly wouldnt get through letterbox

sorry the photos arent that great

BigNickUK · 06-24-2011, 07:56 AM

Cant see a green tint, colours just seem a bit darker than I remember

Mavrick · 06-24-2011, 07:57 AM

Aww no way! Seriously dissapointed with the Blue amaray cases

Wheres the black ones!

LordCrumb · 06-24-2011, 08:05 AM

Thanks for the photos BigNickUK. When it gets to the mountain/snow scenes, have a look for the green tint and please report back for us

BTW - how does 15 discs fit into 3 amarays? or have I got it wrong lol

Stirling1978 · 06-24-2011, 08:06 AM

Looks encouraging with regards to the picture/green tint.

Still gonna hold off a while till the price comes down though for this one, spent enough when the limited dvd's with statues came out.

If these pictures, rough as they are, are an indication of the UK version, that's a big relief. You are right, I can't see a hint of green tint there and it'd be even more evidence that Warner screwed up the encode.

But yes, please check the mountain scenes, too, please. Those ones are by far the most intrusive.

5 discs in each amaray, 4 back to back on the 2 centre swing out sections and one in the back

BigNickUK · 06-24-2011, 08:27 AM

Mountain scene as requested, still no green tint

Karl Murks · 06-24-2011, 08:34 AM

Beautiful!

So if Warner keeps quiet I know what to do now.

argentofan · 06-24-2011, 08:43 AM

Are the subtitles burnt in or player generated?

TheHutt · 06-24-2011, 08:52 AM

Pictures taken from a TV don't prove a thing, alas.

kristoffer · 06-24-2011, 08:58 AM

This looks promising! What about some screenshots of the infamous snow scene?

Please let the colors in this photo be accurate...

karlosfunkster · 06-24-2011, 08:58 AM

I can also confirm that the colouring, whilst adjusted, looks great on the UK release....!

Of course not. However, remember Bill Hunt's photo where he tried to prove that the green wasn't visible? And it still was clearly recognizable, even in his overexposed picture?

But the color here is so strikingly different that it's a strong indicator, if anything.

coolst3 · 06-24-2011, 09:11 AM

is the uk release region free or region coded?? i know dvds will be region 2 ...but would the blu rays be region free??
