I thought you'd ordered it already -- why did it take you so long?

You're always going to get people who go out of their way to be critical. I'm a firm believer of stating a case if something really is untoward but comments should be constructive. Arrow's had a lot of stick of late, some deserved (The Beyond, for instance) but most undeserved (as I mentioned before I was really happy with the PHENOMENA Blu-ray - a disc that has been cussed elsewhere).

I know that there are people like Michael McKenzie who get annoyed when opportunities are missed with these releases and problems creep in when they need not have but it's not a life or death situation and no one is being pressured into buying anything. You make your choice and if you want to throw caution to the wind and pre-order something before the reviews surface, it's kind of your own fault if you feel you've been stung. I pre-ordered TENEBRAE because I was never satisfied with any DVD version I've owned and I wanted to hear the Newman/Jones commentary. I was confindent that the Blu-ray would be a step up from all the shitty DVD incarnations I've owned, and judging by the five or six minutes of it I've seen, I was right.

I really try not to double dip much when it comes to HD and only replace DVDs with Blu-rays when they're films I absolutely love or there's a significant special feature(s) I want to check out.

The Newman/Jones commentary is worth the admission alone Paul.You won't be disappointed.
As is the footage of GOBLIN at Glasgow's Arches performing PHENOMENA and TENEBRAE.:cool:
Frigging superb live,and I should've went to this one.:rolleyes:

Watching the Goblin footage as I type and cursing myself for not seeing them in Gateshead at The Sage earlier this year. I had mates that went and everything!

And yeah, the Newman/Jones commentary is great.

I didn't know they played at the Sage. Damn, I wish I'd known as I would have booked tickets in a flash.

Was going to buy Tenebrae at HMV until I saw the price...

...wait for it...

£28!

:eek:

They're evilly addictive Reaps.

I bought a couple, and now I can't seem to stop! I finally think I've conquered my Digibook lust, and then the bastards release a load more! :lol:

Just watched the blu-underground Blu-ray of maniac....

utter rubbish.

Not the film mind, I already own the supurb anchor bay tin, I love the film, but be warned consumers the transfer is an umittegated disaster.

Its far to soft, some scenes look blurred and grainy, when I put the dvd in to compare the anchor bay release was much much better.

Stick to the dvd with this one folks..:doh:
