Seven Samurai (Zavvi Exclusive) (Blu-ray Steelbook) - Page 6 - Blu-ray Forum

So, we now have a very clear idea of what the box looks like. But still no reviews? At this point, we have to wonder why review copies seemingly haven't been sent out...

On sale for 9.99 at Zavvi

Hmm.
At that price, I would bite if I didnt already have the Criterion. Maybe the Zavvi one has unique extras?

It only has one extra, but it is new compared to the CC release. It's a 49 minute doc. There's also a booklet with essays and other info

The PQ quality on it is great. Definitely nothing to be concerned about.

I watched it on a full cinema screen and it held up very, very well so home viewing will absolutely be fine.

I was a little disappointed. Didn't look as good as the Criterion BD screenshots I have seen. Seems like their didn't use the Criterion master for this.

Indeed not. The BFI probably did their own work for this release.

malcy30 · 01-31-2014, 04:06 PM

BFI have announced this is going on general release in both steelbook and standard case versions. The original Zavvi exclusive was just until their stock of exclusive steelbooks sold out. Nothing to indicate their will be a change in content.

It's not until theirs sells out, it's more of a fixed time exclusive. The Steelbook is still in stock now, but the Zavvi exclusive wording has been removed.

Ok I have a question about zavvi if anyone can help me first off how much does it cost to ship to the USA? And how to I see the USA price in the mobile site. Also when ordering what does house name or house number mean?

In the UK every house or apartment (flat) has either a number or name, so you need to enter that and the street name

I always though in the US you have house number and street name ? with much longer streets than us in the UK, so you can have house numbers in the thousands when in the UK a number in the hundreds is not as common.

In the USA we don't have house names or house numbers we have just street address so it's weird when the site requires you to put a house name or house number when ordering

Thanks so it's 99 cents to ship to USA and $11.99 if you wanna track it? Is that correct I'm making sure as I'm new to ordering from that site

I don't see any field that asks you for a house number. There are just some for an address. Also, house number refers to the number before the street. So 123 would be the house number for the address 123 Fake street. Shipping is .99 to the US.

Well when you check out and asks you to put billing address it then asks for house name or house number and won't let you continue till you fell that part out

under that field for house name or house number it says it's required to fill out

Villiam Hayes · 02-10-2014, 07:47 PM

If they don't have a house number where exactly are they going to deliver it?

I have this film saved on my Sky box but haven't got round to watching it yet.
