Thick covers in the US/Canada? - Blu-ray Forum

Chris Bax · 10-28-2008, 07:56 AM

Hey guys.

I found this really good website which has some great movies on Bluray not available here in Australia, but just wondering, what movie studios put out the thicker covers blu now? I remember importing TMNT on HD DVD back in the day and someone saying to me WB went to thicker covers! Sorry I am really picky about the "look" of my collection and want the thicker covers...

I really want Matrix now

Anyone got Matrix? Thick cover?

Any help needed, thanks!

All US/Canada Blu-Ray Boxes Are Thin This Is unfortunate For Those Of You Who Want Your Collection The Same Size Boxes. I Thought The Same Way Myself Once Then Said To Hell With It. What Is The Name Of The Website You Found.
Ps. I Think You Can Buy The Thicker Boxes Online Not 100% Sure Mind.

yep mines mixed but what can you do ,most of my thick cases are fox because they dont budge with region coding

make sure you check whether theyre region free before you buy because usa and canada are region A and uk and aus are region B.Fox titles will definately not be region free but youre definately ok with warner and 90 percent of universal and paramount are region free too

dude, im from aus and thats the reaon i dont buy here in australia. all my original blus are from u.s, not to mention the player as well, so even if i wanted to buy non region coded aussie blu's the thick case wouldnt match the 130 or so thin ones i have...same problem opposit i guess.

i would go to jb hifi , n see if they have spares.

does anyone know where i could buy spare thin blu cases?
