Life Is Cheap... But Toilet Paper Is Expensive (Wayne Wang, July 2025) - Blu-ray Forum

Nitroes · 04-17-2025, 06:59 AM

New 4K restoration from the original 35mm colour interpositive
New video interview with director Wayne Wang
New video interview with co-writer/co-director Spencer Nakasako & Wang
Original full-length chase sequence
Trailer
Newly improved English subtitle translation
Limited edition booklet with new writing by Aliza Ma
Limited edition slipcover - exclusive to radiancefilms.co.uk

This deserves its own thread rather than being buried in the Radiance section -especially since it's Arbelos.

Not sure where I originally seen this maybe the cinema or maybe just VHS but I really liked it.

Not too bothered by that LE slipcover. Radiance say it's a site exclusive but Planet of Entertainment are listing it as are Diabolik (I assumed they had a deal with Radiance).

No one but Radiance will have the slipcover. I reported this mistake to Radiance yesterday and they got it removed from Amazon, and HMV, and I assume are working on the others.

Are they just getting a bog standard Amaray then?

You'd think they'd do a Scanavo/Obi version for the normal release. It'll look odd alongside all the other first editions.

This one isn't a Radiance title though, ti's a hosted/partner label one from Arbelos Films.

eBay

No leaflet I note I hope that's just been stolen by the seller and Arbelos haven't went down the road of excising it for non Radiance customers.

Criterion don't remove leaflets I've no ****ing idea why the BFI and others do it it just lessens the long term value.

I'd set General Zod on them if he were still flying around.
