Yup just tested the Blu-ray on my region free machine, changed the region ID to region A and it played no problem.

Thanks for the confirmation, Paulie!

Don’t play Jenga with that stack!

Unfortunately not. I’ve done an unboxing on my YT channel

Zombilina · 06-23-2018, 03:00 PM

Massive regrets for not going for this one! Will keep my eye out now... those in hand pics have definitely swayed me.

***CasuallyDressed***
You wondered what the word Poncey means

Google says pretentious or ostentatious are good alternatives

pretentious means
characterized by assumption of dignity or importance, especially when exaggerated or undeserved: a pretentious, self-important waiter.
making an exaggerated outward show; ostentatious.
full of pretense or pretension; having no factual basis; false.

ostentatious means
characterized by or given to pretentious or conspicuous show in an attempt to impress others: an ostentatious dresser.
(of actions, manner, qualities exhibited, etc.) intended to attract notice

Have a good one now

I didn’t wonder what poncey means. I’m British, I know exactly what it means.

***CasuallyDressed*** sorry for any misunderstanding. I'm simply trying to discover why the HMV 4K/ UHD Blu of 'Shape of water' is so wonderful, other than the fact that it should give a better picture & sound than ordinary Blu

dirkblack · 06-25-2018, 10:24 AM

Mine arrived this morning. Very nice Steelbook indeed.

Dante20161 · 06-25-2018, 02:13 PM

Mine was too big to fit through the letterbox so I have to get it from my local post office tomorrow.

Steelbooks always have the same discs inside. It's about the special, limited packaging.

The 4k disc looks and sounds great anyways. There's no improvement needed.

beautiful steel

Porco Azzurro · 06-26-2018, 06:08 PM

If only they didn’t put the unnecessary text/logo on the back this would be perfect for me, but it’s still a really beautiful steelbook.
