Do the 2-disc Scanovo cases have to be clear? If not, Casetopia sells the standard blue 2-disc Scanovo cases.

In this case, yes. I want to replace the blue 2-disc Viva Elite case with something that'll match the rest of the Criterion titles I own on BD.

I have bought Bicycle thieves but the tray in the case is broken.
I cannot find an online store where i can buy a case like that.
Does anyone know a place to buy this case?

You could try contacting Arrow Films. They usually always get back to you (after the holidays). You might get lucky and get a sympathetic response and a replacement case.

Good luck.

So the Viva Elite and PS3 cases here are official? Thanks! A lot of my cases have sticky crap on them.
Also, is this the best place to buy them?

Yes, they're the official cases. Depends on how many Viva Elites you need. Discmakers is cheaper if you're buying those in bulk; they only sell in cases of 25 and 100 pieces though. Nor do they have the PS3 cases. If you only need a handful of cases then Casetopia would be the way to go.

It has one of the Gold AA slipcovers.

Nah, don't ruin it with a slip. That's a great case, so thematic. I'm getting one for There Will Be Blood, too.

anybody know of a place in the US that sells the UK Vortex like fatty cases that just hold a single disc that get used for many releases--especially Optimum titles?

Some U.S. eBay sellers were selling new ones a few months ago.

Early Paramount titles didn't have the wasteful redundant packaging that tears the plastic of the case when you're trying to put them back on.

Glad you like it too

Yup, I didn't make the oil connection until after I put the artwork in the case

What do you mean?

I mean slipcovers are a waste of paper and they do tear the plastic of the BD case unless you're really careful slipping them back on.

Thanks! I love the clear design. If only their prices were as low as disc makers. But, they're good enough, depending on what shipping comes to. Now, if only I knew where to buy the black cases in bulk too.

That looks really good. I tried putting my copy in an HD DVD case because I thought the red would look nice, but the cover art didn't fit.

I never have trouble putting the slipcovers back on my movies

Some you have to be careful with, but most of my slipcovers don't do that. Plus slipcovers look great on the shelf next to each other. I love a nice shiny embossed slip...

That would be interesting, was the cover art too big?

With a slipcover, that very plastic of the BD case stays looking pristine. Without the slipcover, you get lots of abrasion on that clear plastic that you view the artwork through.


I'll take the slip.
