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 ...

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

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.
