Hey, how do you know if it shipped or not? I bought it from there too and it still says "In Process" under status. I ordered it on January 28th.

I didn't get any kind of email confirmation, but I've been monitoring the site all day since I was getting nervous since it was listed as back ordered earlier. If you log in to your account, just check the status of your order by clicking on it and it will show what it currently is

tell me about it. most of the blu-rays up in canada i wont buy due to bilingual covers. drive being one of the VERY rare exceptions. the slipcover from FS was too sick to pass it on.

I preordered it from CDplus but it looks like it's OOS though...

Okay, thanks! That looks nice. Sucks that U.S. got the worst treatment

LucasEatWorld · 01-31-2012, 10:52 PM

That's a pretty badass version. Almost like it more than the FS one due to the glossy/luminous look. The FS one is just too blah (minus the blood splatters) for my liking.

Well, I just didn't feel like getting it via GB, and I am hoping for the special edition released later this year...

Agree on the blood but that embossing.

I think mine shipped early last week (no shipping conf email though

) and it took about a week for delivery.

You don't like that? If you ordered it and don't like it, I'd be glad to take it off your hands!

That does look really nice, but I went with the FS exlcusive because I like it when the slipcover art is different than the cover art.

Jennifer Lawrence Fan · 01-31-2012, 11:09 PM

So I was unsure about buying this, so I just rented it instead and if i like it then I'll buy it.

Actually if you look closely, there is a difference.

Seriously looks 100x better than the artwork we got. Ordered this from Amazon.ca yesterday and it's already shipped, hopefully it'll be here by Friday.

I'm going to take both the booklet and CA disc, put it inside the steelbook, along with printed inner artwork. Make my own "special" edition.

Phoenix Theory · 01-31-2012, 11:36 PM

Just finished watching it and WoW fantastic film.This was a blind buy and i hesitated a little cause i really didn't see any Ryan Gosling films and only knew him for Romantic movies,But he was great in this so glad i blind bought this.Now all i need is a Canadian slip to cover this ugly cover art.

Do you really think it's that bad? I've never seen anything like it before so maybe the novelty aspect is skewing my perception a bit. I also plan on using a custom cover for the US version, putting it in a pink case, and sliding it into that slip.

But having the English and French titles on there together don't bother me too much.

I was trying to figure it out, but I can't tell if the Bridesmaids case or that one is a "hotter" pink. One of them looks a little closer to magenta.

Do you know if the Bridesmaids UK Blu is the normal G2-sized, single-disc one?
