I purchased mine from Deep Discount in the US and it was the corrected copy as well.

I'm definitely going to get this region-free Australian release of The Blob. It really sucks that I have to put up with another replacement disc fiasco though.

I'm going to purchase this Blu-ray of The Blob from amazon.com in October. Hopefully I won't have to send away to Australia for a corrected disc. What exactly is the problem concerning anyway?

When exactly did Umbrella Entertainment become aware of the problem? Quite a while back I hope.

Different Disc art -- post 266
Outer Ring Number and file names should be different Post 226
I went back a few pages and got the information that I need. Thanks.

I also received a corrected disc so it seems like this is a fairly safe buy.

Yes, just received from DD and it is the corrected version. Thanks for the info.

If you haven't heard the ShockWaves podcast with Tony Gardner, it's a fun listen about his FX on many films, including The Blob and RotLD. (Interview starts at halfway point.)

I've just ordered this Australian edition of The Blob at Amazon.

Well, I believe all copies now are the corrected versions, am I right to assume that?

My order comes directly from Amazon, not a third party, and it says "it ships in 1 to 3 weeks", so... I'm really guessing they're having only corrected copies now in stock. I really hope so. I don't live in USA, so a replacement program wouldn't be good at all for me.

Fingers crossed.

That's our standard size for Blu-Ray cases. Hope you got the updated disc!

Can somebody point me in the direction of a copy of this that should come with the corrected disc? I'm late, and confused by it all.

Sorry, I haven't followed this thread.
The corrected disc corrects this terrible compression I see?

http://caps-a-holic.com/c.php?a=2&x=...3&l=0&i=7&go=1

edit: Ok, i read it does.
But, is there any screenshot comparison to see in what degree this is fixed?

Although I think I'd wait in case Indicator or someone else in the UK (eg. Arrow) gets it.

Unfortunately is seems as tho LC's screenshot comparison has been nixed from the database...
