can anyone shed some light on the a/v quality of the EIV blu ray?

I was a fan of the theatrical version and as the US release only has the longer cut (which I have not seen), I was wondering whether the UK disc was an option.

cheers

Believe its a direct port of the US Disc.

nitin · 03-14-2010, 08:52 PM

so its also the longer cut?

blu_sharpy · 03-14-2010, 09:05 PM

Yes I believe so. I dont own the disc but that is what I have heard. Hopefully someone who owns the disc can back up my statement or correct me.

The BBFC have only passed the following:

For theatrical release:

Dec 2005 - the original ~150m version
Feb 2006 - the shorter ~135m version

For home video release:

May 2006 - the shorter ~135m version (released on DVD)
Jan 2010 - the extended ~172m version (released on DVD and Blu-Ray)

Disc looks pretty good has several impressive moments, has a True hd soundtrack which is subdued much like the film.

What about region? I can´t find anywere if its region free...

Sky_Captain · 04-08-2010, 06:42 PM

The UK disc is an EIV release and almost certainly region locked.
The US disc is region free.

Amazon UK also list it as 165 min, as opposed to 172.

They probably just copied the PAL time from the DVD, or something. Amazon often makes that kind of errors.

Has it been confirmed to be region-locked?

fruity_player · 12-22-2010, 08:59 PM

Can anyone tell me whether the UK version has a slipcase? The stock photo on the site suggests there is one - apparently looking same as that of Rambo or Defiance. No big deal if there isn't any, but it's good to know for sure

blu_sharpy · 12-22-2010, 09:03 PM

I can confirm that it does NOT come with a slipcover!

markbr · 12-22-2010, 09:15 PM

Yeah I have the UK version and sadly no Slip..... But great PQ, AQ.

fruity_player · 12-22-2010, 09:20 PM

Thanks a lot for the prompt replies guys!
