you are right the only subs on the nordic release is Norsk,Dansk,Svensk and Finsk

Anyone have any idea how much the steelbook will be in HMV? Last year they had Catching Fire for £17.99, which would be much cheaper than the current online prices.

Steelbook just arrived from Amazon, bizarrely the spine has no title - blank apart the Lionsgate logo at the top and the blu-ray logo at the bottom.

I think they'll be getting a lot of returns! Glad I took up the cheapy amaray option now... Surely the blank spine is a mistake?!!

You have got to be kidding, how can they take a matching steelbook design and not make it match?

Agreed - it's just bizarre and frustrating. It's an English steelbook as well (the title/tagline are on the front) so it's not been done to allow foreign sales.

And it's extra bizarre/annoying because of how well they've done so far on the designs -

Geoff D · 03-15-2015, 04:57 PM

Gotta be a mistake. But look on the bright side dude, it might become a rarity.

Mavrick · 03-15-2015, 04:58 PM

That spine is ridiculous.

Had a quick look over at Hi-Def Ninja, seems people there have the blank spines too so if it's a mistake then it's not even going to be a rare, profitable one.

What absolute idiots Lionsgate are!

Brother_Dobby · 03-15-2015, 06:42 PM

God damn it. Should've seen this coming. I was hoping they wouldn't drop the ball on the designs of these, but I never thought they'd leave off the title.

*sigh* Anyways, now that Mockingjay Part 2 is coming in 3D, I guess my collection isn't going to match anyways...

Has anyone recieved the triple pack yet to confirm it is only 3 discs (as per amazon description)? Will that mean that the complete set next year will also be missing extras?? :-(

The double pack and the fancy Catching Fire amazon exclusive were exactly the same: Lionsgate put a barebones 12-rated (i.e. cut) version of the first movie in there to keep the boxset rating at an even 12. The initial standalone release of THG is the only way to get the extras & the uncut version of that one.

How annoying, ah well i guess i will just keep the individual releases.

Whats with the different releases anyway lol 2 disc(or 3 disc) blu ray for hunger games, blu-ray+dvd release for catching fire and now just a blu-ray for mockingjay?? Who makes these decisions? No continouity , total cluster f*ck

Geoff D · 03-16-2015, 12:23 AM

It's Lionsgate being cheap bastards, is what it is. At the rate they're going we'll be lucky to even get a slipcover with MJ Part 2.

oldmario · 03-16-2015, 12:42 AM

what if lionsgate intended on doing this and with part 2 it will be just the movie title without any part 2 stuff?
