I believe its 18x20. It's the same size as the other posters found in Arrow Video's Limited Editions.

Also well some Limited has an extra cut of the film or an extra disc. Like Deep Red.

I like the big fat slipcase.

Thanks. Sorely tempted to frame this one.

The Universal releases were coasters because of the wrong pitch of the audio alone.
Apparently some people here like to hear CCR in slo-mo or their hearing is so bad that they didn't notice that anything is wrong.

I can only see one listing on Deepdiscount and as far as I can tell it's the LE, but given the significantly better price I'm a bit worried by what I may get.

I wouldn't worry. The retail price on the LE is $49.95, which is the only listing on DeepDiscount right now, so they are definitely only carrying the LE.
Frankly, my only concern with DD is that this title will most likely be on backorder status come the 29th. I imagine this will be a brisk seller and it will be temporarily out of stock at lots of places.

Is this for the limited edition with all of the extra items?! And will it get to us on time or should I just go Amazon to be certain of that?
Say it's so.

It is the LE as far as the UPC goes.

Damnit! I cancelled my amazon order and just placed an order on Diabolik and saw this backorder status. I really hope I didn't screw myself with cancelling my amazon order and not only having to pay shipping now but might be delayed on top of that. I really hope there are no issues.

EDIT: I just went ahead and placed another order on amazon in case I need to cancel my Diabolik order.

In all honesty, I’m a bit flabbergasted to see this kind of “meh” attitude toward a transfer that so clearly betters what came before - at least on this forum. I mean if this isn’t a substantial enough upgrade, I can’t imagine being at all impressed with the vast majority of 4K upgrades, either.

Meh, certain people have been defending the Universal like their life depended on it and they're not going to change now. You're one of the rare examples where someone turns around and says "uh, yeah, it does look a bit shit now" despite having vigorously defended it on previous occasions. If they don't want film to look like film then that's their bidness, let them get on with it.

Thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. I just went with Amazon. Wanted to make sure I got it before Halloween.

[Bobbyjoe766]

Can’t wait to hear that mono track again after so many years.
