Better frigging cover for a start!
Widescreen?

No idea about widescreen, but yeah, this one uses the whole of the poster, unlike the German blu-ray. Even if it isn't widescreen, there's zero chance it'll look as bad as the German one.

I have the US Mad Max and the superb Road Warrior BD's already.

Whatever you think of Thunderdome as a film,the artwork's still knockout!


Whatever happened to these eh?
Classics of artwork greatness!

The below artwork is the reason I've kept my Japanese DVD of MAD MAX.
There was a French boxset release which utilized that classic artwork of MAD MAX 2 on an Amaray,bUt I gave up after being sent numerous pisser triple disc sets from Amazon France sellers.
Mmmmmmmm....

I think the integrale version of LEON was the first Japanese DVD I bought and that was later on in the same year.

I had that Leon disc (if it's the one I'm thinking of, released by Paramount along with Point Break?).

Mine wasn't paramount, can't remember the label, definitely one that was Japanese, rather than a worldwide conglomerate. It came in a CD-size 'jewel case'.

Cost about £35 from one of the film fairs in Watford.

Ah, interesting. Mine definitely wasn't Paramount and as I said came in one of those loathsome CD cases.
