Same here, I called Fed Ex too, and nothing coming my way. I am hoping it comes this week, but I will wait til Paramount contacts me, and go from there. I can't wait til I speak with them .....

Got mine today. I live in Ohio.

Those who have received theirs, did you call to get the address first? I'm just curious because I used the address provided in the thread and did not call before I mailed it (Aug. 2nd). I still haven't received mine yet

[rumpleminz]

I didn't call. I put it in a cd sleeve then a padded envelope. I wrote my name, address, phone number, proof of purchase number on the sleeve. Got it today!

I called Paramount today (1-888-889-9456) and talked with a nice lady. She basically said if I don't receive the replacement by September 1st to call back so they could gather my information and go from there.

The representative did check to see if there was another number I could call for a status update, but then just said to call this number back. I told her I had the receipt from when I mailed it as well as the receipt from Best Buy when I bought it so if they need proof I have it.

I told her it is most likely in the mail and I shouldn't be worried, but I thought I'd call anyways to see if there was a way to get a status update.




So much for mailing the disc in early.

What part of Ohio are you located?

OMG what a difference with the new transfer. I first thought the original wasn't that bad, but after watching the new transfer the old one looks like it has plastic wrap around my t.v hiding all the detail. Wow. Now I"m pissed at whoever gave the go ahead to release that first disc garbage.

Sent mine on the 31st as well but got mine today in Orlando. Hope you guys get yours soon that sent them early.

[SillyMammo]

Just sent mine regular mail in a padded envelope. I'm so glad I grabbed the crappy 1st version for $10 last Black Friday from AMZ.

As others have said, its hard to believe the 1st version was ever greenlighted. Especially now that I've watched a couple of scenes from the new disc.

[DMC86X]

Im sorry for being lazy, but how do I know the difference between the old and new copies?? Thinking of going to Best Buy tonight to see if they have em in stock.

[rumpleminz]

bout 30 mins north of Cincinnati.

Nope, I didn't call. I just sent it to the address they're giving out with my name, address, and phone number two weeks ago. I got mine today in SC.

I sent mine on the 31st and have still received nothing and I live in Mississippi. I called the number Saturday and they said to give it another week and if it wasn't here by then to call back.

The first batch was sent out on the 17th. According to the FedEx ground transit time map, today is the earliest people in New England should be expecting them. The map is here: https://forum.blu-ray.com/blu-ray-mo...ml#post3644148

Well that makes sense. However, I called FedEx and they said they had no packages coming to my address.

Hopefully they are wrong,

[Blu-Benny]

my exchange copy came last night!!

hopefully i can find the time to watch it one night this week.....i never put in the original disc.

and it's been quite some time since i've seen the movie.

Got mine last night. Popped it in and watched it till I dropped off, but it looked great. Couple of scenes I was surprised at the detail, and it was nice to not see blazing halos in some of the other scenes.

I'm honestly surprised they'd give any answer other than "we can't tell you." Seems like a potential for theft if you could know when your neighbors are expecting a package. Maybe they just say "no" whenever anyone asks?
