Question on Austin Powers BDs - Blu-ray Forum

Moviemaniack1993 · 11-25-2008, 06:48 AM

So, since Warner now distributes the New Line films, will the Blu-ray trilogy boxset be the slim cases? Because I HATE those cases. I want the standard Blu-ray cases. I hate how The Matrix looks, and how the Harry Potter Years 1-5 Boxset looks. And they are not offering them individually either.

There is a pic on Amazon, but it is hard to tell. It looks to me like it is regular size cases and not the slims.

Wish they were individual also.

i do have these box set already and their not the regular cases. they are slim cases sorry to disappoint you.

easyrider · 11-25-2008, 07:18 PM

I really need to know if this will be a region free release ?

ThingontheFloor · 11-25-2008, 07:18 PM

I assume these are not being sold seperately so they'll be in slim cases. I like they save room but usually cheap looking. At least the Matrix collection came in a sturdy box.

Didn't think I'd say it but those are some pretty nice looking covers.

Ugh. Maybe I will wait for them to be released individually then. I really really hate the slim cases.

Austin Powers in waaaaaaaaaaaaay overrated, baby.

Rhylliam · 11-25-2008, 09:17 PM

I bet these will be slim cases. Are those cases crappy? They do help save on space etc for TV shows (which I'm sure they'll start using them on in no time).

I just watched the second "Austin Powers" movie last night and could not get a TrueHD track on this movie. I'm bitstreaming it to an Onkyo 905 and even though I selected Dolby TrueHD on the disk menu, the Onkyo still says Dolby EX. I played the first movie fine and it read Dolby TrueHD. I haven't tried the third one yet. Would others on this forum verify for me that they're getting Dolby TrueHD on the second "Austin Powers" movie?

My PS3 is reading Dolby TrueHD when I select it.

It can't be the disk. That's usually when the info. on the player says standard DD.

I'm thinking also that Warner could have possibly released some incorrectly encoded disks. BTW, the 3rd AP movie, "Goldmember" works correctly and is reading "DD TrueHD". It's just the 2nd one that's not sending the correct audio codec.

2 disc streams to my receiver as TrueHd, but with DolbyPrologicII mix combo. I thought it was stated somewhere that it was a mix though.

I'm not sure what that means?
