my copy arrived this morning. I have watched the film and all the extra features including the PDF file on dvd disc 2.
The film looks fantastic on blu ray. You have never seen the film look this good before. A real bonus was the X cert card before the film.

On my blu ray disc there is a picture glitch when Simon picks the eyes off the floor (008:17). The picture moves almost slow motion for about 2 seconds but the sound is okay. I have checked the 1.37:1 version and the dvd's and they are all okay. Can you let me know if your blu ray copy is the same or it's just mine that has this glitch. Thanks

Other than that...fantastic package.

Ordered mine from Play.com a few weeks ago. My order status says "Processing in warehouse", so much for the "We usually will have it delivered to you a day or so before release date", that they said when ordered.

What a damn shame this all is.
Amazon have now stopped selling the blu ray.

Probably the reason for the delay from Play.

I can't wait to get my hands on this but it's a little too pricey for me at the moment. I'll just have to make do with the German DVD for the time being. It looks like a top notch release though!

Is there anymore news on this, I fancy watching it, but I don't want to open it if it's to be recalled?

Latest news....

Quote:
We are still in discussion with our manufacturer to clarify the situation and, based upon this, to work out how we will best resolve any problem discs. This will include a way for anybody who believes they have a faulty disc to receive a replacement free of change. We will update with further details about this on Tuesday 6th May. Thanks for your understanding!
