Wolf of Wall Street Steelbook (Filmarena) (Czech Republic) - Blu-ray Forum

rickah88 · 06-02-2014, 11:28 PM

Just received this today. First time ever ordering from FA, and despite what some members said, this beauty arrived as advertised. I think their packaging even trumps KimichiDVD's packaging, which I didn't think was possible! The lone steelbook arrived in a 6.5"x 8" x8" box totally wrapped in black shrink wrap. A layer of rolled bubblewrap, sandwiching the steelbook which was wrapped in more bubblewrap, with a cardboard shell taped around.
I was running low on bubblewrap, so this was a good thing!

Hopefully the pics come through okay. I included today's other arrivals to give the shipping box some exterior scale.
Oh yeah, they threw in a poly bag as well.

Rick, that's great packaging...did you order direct from them? Didn't know they deliver to USA, but must have been costly...

Could you please check, when you have time, if there is an option for an English menu screen (I had seen in an unboxing the Czech menu only)....love the disc art and would like to get this and swap in my UK steelbook...

There was no option for English only, that I could find. I just Google-Translated my way through. When they sent me an email, with the "unboxing video clip", I did mention giving an English option and they replied that they were "trying to work towards that". For what it's worth.
Yes they ship directly to the US.
I was a little nervous as some members swore that Filmarena was a bad outfit, and not to be trusted...hogwash as far as I'm concerned. Everything that went on with this order, to include weekly updates, quick responses to emails, a video of the product since the rear art was slightly off center and giving me the chance to cancel my order, were all signs of a company wanting to do right by the customer. I have no problem ordering, with confidence, from them, in the future.

Rick, what about the blu-ray disc itself? Is there a way to default it to an English main menu screen, or can it only be seen with Czech menu?

I recently got an order from them as well and their packaging was incredible (a little over the top though

)!

I'll have no problem ordering from them again in the future.

Was shipping costs overboard as well?

Yeah, that is the only drawback. So it's really only beneficial to order from them if you have 3-4 titles to order since that would lessen the cost greatly per item.

Sorry I missed you post. I will check the disc tonight and report back!

I believe shipping for my 1 steelbook was 300 Koruna(~$20). I didn't combine with anything else, as there really wasn't anything else I wanted at the time. So as Tyler stated, you could spread the cost out by adding a few more items to your order.

Sorry for the delay.

No the menu can not be changed from Czech...or, at least, not that I was able to do. It is easy enough to navigate though, and English DTS-HD MA 5.1 is one of three audio options, along with English subtitles.

Hope that helps.

Hey, I know this is an old thread, but I was wondering; is this region B or is it also able to be played on A Blu ray players such as an Xbox One for instance? Thanks for posting about this by the way

Not sure if it'll work on xbox one as I've never tried but I can confirm it works on Region A players. See post below under "Region Coding"
