Yesterday I went to Speedy outlet at Mid Valley, saw a guy purchased a few BD, he proceeded to the counter to pay. i saw one of them is Star Wars Complete Set. Oh my, it cost a freaking RM499 (was it RM449? i dont remember). he could have order online. I guess he can't wait for the shipping time, but then, if he is a SW fans he would have bought it on the 1st day it was released?

Received my Stanley Kubrick collection from Amazon UK today. Despatched on 16 oct, lepas by custom 20 Oct so the trusted Royal Mail is still tops. My local Mister Posman also OK-lah considering the weekend.

This is the 8-disc edition (7 movies plus a bonus disc on Stanley Kubrick). I chose this over the US/Canadian edition because of the easier to handle flip case as can be seen from the shots below, apart from the price. Taking out the discs was also very tough initially in its virgin state because of the very tight fit. But after a few in-out, in-out, it was OK; probably better than the problem with the US edition. Apart from the packaging and minus the two films, I believe the included movies are the same as those in the US edition except for The Shining. Here it is the director's cut at 119 minutes European release vs the extended version of 144 minutes for the US release and there are pros and cons on the two versions. It is a pity they did not include both versions in either release. Anyway, here are some shots and if they have been posted before by somebody else, just ignore.
BTW, this is still available at Amazon UK for GBP24.51 (inclusive of shipping) so a bloody good buy for fans of Stanley Kubrick.

Overall package.

thanks for sharing, i got the US VERSION, i am happy with it, although the bookcase is not practical, it is very beautiful indeed. what i do is i took out all disc & kept disc at a cd multi holder. the bookcase is another display items.

for Shinning, i didn't realised there is 2 version. thanks for highlight.

some info for the 2 film u missing - SPARCATUS is good movie but universal studio bluray release is a soso only.
DR. STRANGLOVE is from SONY and received very good review, however it is black n white old movie, so don't expect too much.

Thanks for info on the two missing movies. If like that, my DVD version may be good enough. Or wait for really cheap, cheap BD offer later.

Wah, very sharp eyes lah. The packer must be sleepy and put the paper inset upside down. No problem, I just put it back the right way round!

Haha, me no sweet heart to watch with, but at that time, i was with a bunch of friends ran (literary on the foot, RAN!) from one cinema to another cinema because the previous one sold out. Needless to say, there was no empty seat even the front row in the whole cinema hall. Those days watching movie in a stand-alone big screen cinema is like a big event, now is like.... finish shopping, eat a meal, if got extra hour to spend, let's go to cineplex, all under one roof in a shopping mall.

Bro naz, wonder if you are getting Dream Theater Live At Budokan (Japan). One of the best DT concert in recent years i've watched.
Must have!
