New Moon fanatics and hardcore Blu-ray collectors shouldn't hesitate to make a purchase, but more casual viewers might want to hold out for some future boxed set of all four films or an expanded special edition of New Moon.

The above is the final words from blu-ray.com reviewer .

Any of you own The Twilight Saga : New Moon? Need to know if its worth buying?

For me, the movie is a bit boring, no climax at all
but if u like to see 'leng chai robert' or 'leng lui kristen' with fine details, than it's worth collection considering the PQ is good
AQ wise is good also especially during the werewolves fighting scene

For me, it'll be the opposite. If the audio is so-so, but the video is tip-top... I still rate it high.

My scenario: if I listen to a moderate or so-so movie audio track without watching the video, I can still be impressed with the sound... but if i just watch the video without sound, I can tell straight away whether the transfer is good, moderate or bad!  nod.gif

I must've been living in my own world I think, haha....  laugh.gif

each individual has their own preference on whether PQ>AQ or AQ>PQ or PQ=AQ
so in the end, we are living in our own world laugh.gif

One of my favourite Jet's early movie... but looks a bit grainy. But all is forgiven because this one is a truly classic martial arts movie.... at least to me!
Just one question... the original chinese audio is in Cantonese (and Japanese) or just Mandarin like the old vhs/dvd? I'd very much prefer the former  nod.gif

The video transfer seems not bad
might get one as the price is cheap though hmm.gif
As my memory recalls, the original chinese audio is in Cantonese (and Japanese) , just like OUATIC

www.blu-ray.com just did a minor changes in format and forum.  Some forum is missing... hmm.gif  and the price changes information become even worse and can't longer reflect the info on time when there is price change.  This already happened and I already noted for some time.  Last time, not all price reduce will reflect in their website and now become worse.  Hope this is only temporary.  rclxub.gif

Both PQ/AQ were given a 5.0

For the time being, boom boom pow first laugh.gif

To be frank
I also feel that the movie storyline does not deserve a 5.0
but 3.5 is a bit low as it's still a fun-watching movie
I would give it a 4.0
anyway, this part is very subjective

Yes, available at most of the larger retail chain-stores. Could be cheaper if you shop around the fringe stores. Not sure if you'd still find it in June though. These things usually sell out pretty quickly. If you want, I can get one for you and hold it until u come over.

It's supposed to come with a deck of Avatar-themed poker cards as well (not the art cards), but HMV told me they havent received the stock yet, told me to come back in 3-4 days time!  doh.gif
Thanks for the reply bro. That's too bad.

Was hoping there was, as so far all the Asian releases are not identical. I like the China one best - the back cover just shows the face with no text. Beautiful. The HK one is rather messy.

If it's not troubling you, would u mind to help me on that?
and help me to get the deck of Avatar-themed poker cards as well

Not being anal or anything, but just wanted to point out a couple of things. The Asian releases of Avatars are Ironpacks. The UK version is the only one that is a Steelbook™. What's the difference? Ironpacks tend to be slightly inferior in their quality (if you're picky). Take a look at the Ironpack's spine and you'll notice the metal cutting is less refined, and even misaligned in some cases. The metal sheets are also thinner and feel less solid (soft). The Steelbook™ on the other hand are much better in quality and build. Just thought I'd share that.
I think we better talk thru PM. Or u can get from alexwlh since he got ready stock, so u can get it faster rather than wait until June. Let me know thru PM.
Hmmm.... it's the ironpack version indeed, not the better built steelbook version
I'll have to consider again hmm.gif
Anyway, I'll pm u later on my decision
thx again bro for offering ur help notworthy.gif

I'm not in the rush to get the ironpack/steelbook version as I've already got my US normal version
It's just for my personal collection smile.gif

I went to the service center to collect personally this afternoon

I might have to considering the UK steelbook since terranova bro pointed out the HK version is not the steelbook
but one thing, I really hate the nipple
it destroys the beautiful cover art
