I have to say, I'm quite impressed with it.

Rhylliam · 11-20-2010, 08:37 AM

I'm very glad they did exactly what the did for the DVD packaging. A plane-jane keep case would not suffice.

Christmas, Lloyd · 11-20-2010, 12:39 PM

That's literally EXACTLY what I was envisioning. Well done, Criterion.

csdot · 11-20-2010, 03:03 PM

wow i really didnt think they would go all out like the dvd, im very pleased they kept the design.

Mobe1969 · 11-20-2010, 08:17 PM

Sweet. And the BR case's aspect ratio matches a beta better than DVD...

Dust Devil · 11-20-2010, 08:36 PM

Great !! But only mono sound ?

mckee74 · 11-20-2010, 08:51 PM

That packaging is just incredible. Haven't seen this in years.

The same as the rest of the standard plastic CC cases..... that's what they used, just added a slipcover to it

EDIT:

Which is basically the same size as a PS3 game case..... and if you don't have any of those.... It's about this tall:

CC are taller than normal Blu cases though?

nekromantik · 11-20-2010, 10:13 PM

no they are in fact slighty (VERY slightly) shorter.

I'm glad they kept the same sort of packaging that the DVD had.

Awesome thanks!

I love this film, but I'll have to wait until the next Criterion sale

Tom Hiddleston · 11-21-2010, 04:31 AM

Added to my queue. I just wish it was released before the 21st. Oh well, better late than never.

And the packaging is top notch imo.
