Need to get back to them mate!

Most of you might not care, but for us with bigger screens/projectors, having artifacts dancing around on the screen IS very distracting.
It shouldn´t need to look like a MKV rip.
Hey Steel, I watch my Arrow Blu-Rays on a 40" screen (which I wouldn't consider big) and I can see those compression artifacts quite well - I completely agree with you.
Would be great of Arrow to improve on this in the future !

I do see the weird daylight "grain/artifacts" but apart from that, I thought it looked ok (and I have a 42" screen).

So this has actually been released? Amazon are saying mine won't be dispatched til the 29th at least. I wasn't too surprised because Arrow announced on Facebook (at least that's where i first saw it) that due to this incorrect disc cock up they were pushing release back to the 28th?

I've had mine since last Friday (I think?), ordered through HMV. Pete's right though, in store my local has HBTC and both Demons LE's at the £15/£16 mark. Didn't see Forbidden Zone though.

I pre-ordered via Amazon so am still waiting for mine!
Might check my local HMV to see if they have any and cancel with Amazon if they do but then again, I wonder if they'd contain the correct discs though?
Maybe it's best to wait another week for Amazon to ship.

Arrow are pretty good at getting out replacement discs though, and at least you'd get to watch the film!
