I was originally going to but all of EB's releases, to date, have been released with an aspect ratio of 1.78:1. I'm not expecting this title to be any different and there's no hope for any kind of extra.

I think Yesasia is the only site that regularly carries it.

Got mine for $35 off of play-asia.com. I chose the cheapest shipping and received it within approximately 10 days. yesasia.com also carries it...and sometimes amazon.co.jp lowers the price, but their shipping is very pricey.

Several members here have used it and said it's worthwhile.

Both yesasia and play-asia are in English, easy to use, and customer service for both sites are quick to respond if you ever need to e-mail a question.

Awesome….thanks for the info guys!!! I may have to just bite it and order the Japan version.

Yep I do have one but it isn't hooked up to my TV currently. Is it really that bad on Syfy?

Well it will more than likely be broadcast in 1.78:1 and the film's OAR is 2.35:1. Also, compression artifacts are always a problem even with HD broadcasts.

i would imagine if they have one on sale for around $35, it'll be gone in no time.
