Cube (1997) - Blu-ray October/2012 - Page 5 - Blu-ray Forum

I'd love to see them do the whole trilogy in a blu ray box set (similar to the DVD version) but instead of scattering the special features all over the world actually put them in one place, is that really too much to ask??

The above is aimed at Lionsgate

Plus, I want to be a film-maker myself, so as much exposure to that world as possible is the way forward.

I'm not a big fan of a lot of extras. I don't like the suspension of disbelief shattered by seeing making ofs etc, and shots from the set.

I do however enjoy trailers and poster galleries.

I also believe a DVD/Blu Ray is incomplete without trailers and marketing posters etc. I'd rather the extras be there so people have the choice to watch them or ignore them as opposed to there being nothing on the disc :/

How is the UK edition against the JP edition? It looks like the JP is better, but how much so? It would cost me about $25 to get the JP, and about half that to get the UK. I am heavily leaning UK because of price. Any reason to consider the other (or is there another version somewhere in the world that might be an even better cost-to-quality ratio?)

Edit: Actually, the Korea edition even has English subs, and has more extras from what I can tell. I looked at the comparison of the video on caps-a-holic for the JP and UK discs, and they look to use the same transfer and almost look identical in detail, with the difference being that the UK is lighter / JP is darker in color / contrast. I think both have pretty good video, actually. I assume that most releases will look somewhat similar. The Korean release is also AVC encoded like the JP, so it probably looks very similar, but I can't find a comparison anywhere. I'm buying the Korean version because I found it on ebay for $13.98 (including shipping from a US seller). Too good a deal to pass up!

Very nice to get 2-3 on blu-ray besides the german zero disc, hopefully really good quality also.

Nice, but crazy expensive!

Just bought the Korean version off eBay, was going to go for the UK versions but the lenticular slip on the Korean version looks pretty nice.

Does anyone know where to buy Cube II: Hypercube and Cube Zero on BD? I can't seem to source any but I've seen people talk about them being on Blu so they have to exist. I have the Japanese disc of the first film and love it, want to track down the others.

Any news on a good Blu-ray here in the states?

Jompa · 07-07-2023, 08:34 AM

No. You have to import

LanceL · 07-07-2023, 08:36 AM

Yeah, but from where?

If you're region free, you can order it cheap from Rarewaves or Ebay. It's not really all that hard to get.

I imported the UK disc back when it first came out in 2012, and I'm surprised it still hasn't had a North American Blu-ray release...especially since that was a Lionsgate release.

How is this one (in comparison to the JAP/Kor one)?
