내부자들 (Inside Man)[Video Gage Exclusive]

[Huseyin]

I went for the full slip! Really can't wait for this!

[Ray O. Blu]

Just got a lenticular.
Also looking forward to this one.

[shadedpain4]

Thanks for the head's up all. Got the white one ordered.

Someone needs to get these in the database!

[logboy]

shipped from kimchi.

[Ray O. Blu]

I was hoping that this would be delivered by today so I could watch it for my birthday.

Luckily, I just checked to see what's playing at CGV Cinemas and the new movie by Na Hong-jin (The Chaser, The Yellow Sea) called The Wailing is playing, so the wife and I are gonna check it out.

It stars Kwak Do-won and Hwang Jung-min and looks like a good one.

I'm jealous that you live by a CGV Cinema. I do get to see The Wailing in two weeks though, but it's very rare that a Korean movie has played anywhere close to me. This is probably the first time.

Amazing movie. First time I've been compelled to see a movie twice in theaters in a very long time.

[shibal]

I caught the first showing at CGV today and the theater was pretty empty despite the fanfare & hype surrounding this film. The one aspect I enjoy from Asian cinema (Korean in particular) as opposed to Western cinema is the multi-mood experience and this film certainly fits the bill. I wish it were a bit more cohesive at times and better paced but I thoroughly enjoyed it till the end. Made a side trip to Kim's Home Center to pick up a new electric kettle afterward, so killed two birds with one stone.

thanks, ill be sure i won't miss it then.

[Ray O. Blu]

Received my lenti this morning!

Gonna check it out tonight.

[shibal]

I received my lenticular version as well plus my 2nd JSA replacement copy. I'm going to have to try that "drinking" game the chaebol heads used in Inside Men.

I wasn't sure when I would place a future order but they said it's no problem; they would hold a copy indefinitely as long as I contacted them beforehand. I know some people complain about their various server issues but the one thing I will say about NM is their customer service department replies very quickly to my inquiries.

i contacted nova yesterday, after seeing you mention another JSA replacement disc - the reply i got said the second disc wasnt yet complete, but would be ready before the end of the month.

i find their english limited, so wonder if theyre clear on what you asked for and what they were sending?

i am refusing to cover postage this time around - not a regular nova customer either - and, as my copy is still unopened, ive said they can have it all back and refund all my money if they wont cover costs of a second replacement disc.

Not sure why they mentioned that it wasn't ready? The second disc is the one that fixed some technical issues with the audio sync. That's the one I received yesterday. I'm bummed NM decided to forgo the Dolby ATMOS due to issues with the remastering but actually I don't even have a Dolby AtMOS enabled AVR or speakers to begin with but wanted it for future consideration.

I'm actually more bummed that I won't have an opportunity to re-watch INSIDE MEN until I get home. I've only watched the director's cut (3 hour long version) & want to see how the shorter theatrical cut stacks up. I can't recall the last time I sat through a 3 hour long movie other than Shoah and it still captured my interest until the final scene. I think this is one of Lee Byung-hun's best performances.

second replacement, not second disc - which sounds like first replacement.

i'm looking forwards to 'inside men' - glad the disc wasn't a plain archive release. it's hardly been noticed. then again, discs have never sold well in korea, so ...

[Ben_C]

I ordered the re-release of A Tale of Two Sisters from Nova the other day, and asked them to chuck in the 2nd replacement JSA disc, and they emailed be back saying they would (though it hasn't shipped yet).
Funny thing is, I haven't even got around to checking the 1st replacement yet to see if I could tell what was wrong with it.

Back to Inside Men, anyone know if it's A locked or region free? Nova's site says all, kimchi say A.

yes, the second replacement sounds similar to the first one but when I contacted them to see if the second would include Dolby ATMOS (as they mentioned during the pre-order release info) & what other fixes it would entail, this was their reply:

Dear Sir.

We decide do not make ATMOS because some technical issue.
So, our second recall disc is just fix sync issue.

Thank you
Novamedia

So I'm not sure if the second "disc/replacement" is semantics or if NM will really release a second disc later this month apart from the second replacement in which they managed to include a Dolby ATMOS audio track as per the email you received from them?

i only know of a second replacement disc - don't know why it's being replaced, or the exact spec of it.

[Simon_LDT]

Huh? There is a further replacement for JSA? I thought the original replacement, back in November fixed the problem (audio sync)?

I only just got my JSA replacement the other day and had a bit of hassle getting it. I asked Nova back when it was first announced and they said they'd bundle with my next order. I then ordered 'Assassination' from them a few weeks back and even though I added a note to my order AND I emailed them and they confirmed they would send it, it was never in the package. I then requested they send it separately as I only order sporadically from Korea due to the high prices. Credit due, they did send me the disc so even though it's been a bt of a hassle they have sorted it.

Now though, I'm wondering what I've actually got, if there are now 3 discs out there of JSA? Any difference on the text/codes on the disc underside?
