QUOTE(wiNd @ Aug 27 2012, 12:08 AM) i thought rm500 rule is per order. not combination of orders... that's the thing... i argued with the officer there but he insisted that it is considered together because recipient share same name & destination (address) and both arrive at the same time! i have 3 orders (3 boxes) coming on the same day (RM180 per order)...then ? if based on my case then should apply too for your orders... but then again, it depends on luck i suppose... |

QUOTE(wiNd @ Aug 27 2012, 03:52 PM) unreasonable..more like "forcing" you to pay taxes/fees, etc in my case it's 2 separate orders (standalone) made on separate dates (4 days apart) & not one order with split shipment because usually i'll make sure my one order total is less than RM500 everytime... btw, its 1 order number split into 3 shipments or 3 standalone order number? if its 1 order number, split into 3 boxes (shipments), then its understandable...but if its 3 standalone order number, that shouldnt be the case. |

QUOTE(wiNd @ Aug 28 2012, 08:03 PM) i've eagerly waiting to order this or US version to replace my dvd boxset but i had doubt when experienced with Spielberg's other titles on bd which is Jurassic Park... the transfer is too soft & not crisp for my liking given it's a big budget flick. i hope they do a good one on the first 3 Indys... or like Indy 4 and even other titles during that era like the Bond series for instance; which transfer is oh so good!! |

QUOTE(low98944 @ Aug 30 2012, 12:02 AM) Did you guy realise that Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase One - Avengers Assembled (10-Disc Limited Edition Six-Movie Collector's Set) [Blu-ray] (2012) currently in trouble and release of this Limited Edition may delay or cancel. Yesterday I noted Amazon removed the pre-order link for this product and said that this product currently under review. urmm... oh well, so far amazon didnt inform me anything regarding this - still having it in my cart. but to be frank, i actually dont really care much with the suitcase & all the shebang gizmos...although it does look pretty cool!! it's the extra disc "The Phase One Archive" that i'm rooting for because it seems like this is the only release so far with the bonus disc! Just know I checked from www.blu-ray.com's forum, a lawsuit filed in the Central District of California, German luggage manufacturer Rimowa GmbH has disputed the design of this briefcase. The company’s lawsuit said: ‘Images of the replica briefcase on Marvel's advertising materials, and fan video from Marvel’s product display at this year’s Comic-Con, show the plastic “replica case” to be a close copy of Rimowa’s Topas attaché case in every respect but quality – from the proportions and colouring to the style of the handle and latches and, of course, in the use of [our] trademarked parallel ridges around the body of the case … Marvel did not obtain any licence or authorisation from Rimowa to make replica copies of the cases for any purpose.’ |

QUOTE(low98944 @ Aug 30 2012, 10:06 PM) Whatever the outcome of this issue i think Marvel/Disney will still release this "briefcase set" by hook or by crook because if based on the release date, by now it's already being manufactured, probably into QC right now and packaging etc etc... and with the demand i don't think they're just gonna scrap the briefcase idea totally & settled with a typical boxset labelled as "gift set" (which will be It seems everybody wants a piece of "The Avengers" pie... although i can understand that company's right to its IP and Marvel's fault by overlooking this very important element! |

QUOTE(Xstan @ Sep 10 2012, 02:13 AM) Would appreciate members enlighten me on how some is able to watch movies like Avengers or MIB 3 in bluray 50gb or in full HD when it's release is months time? Asian releases? yup, Asian will release them first most of the time to avoid piracy... i saw The Avengers bd already available at Speedy before Raya; that's more than a month earlier than US! I'm not in rush to watch it as I always watch in Cinema release 1st. |

QUOTE(ameenskywalker @ Sep 10 2012, 02:38 PM) yes, but for obvious reasons it's better to get the US than Asian ones... although hv to wait a bit. i'm enjoying a 1080 HD version right now & noticed there's a censored scene as rumoured but not sure if this was taken from US release |

QUOTE(wiNd @ Sep 10 2012, 05:25 PM) Oh is it... for me, it is simply the best comic-book movie to date (for Marvel at least...). While I think this is one of few comic book action movies with good character development (not cut-outs), nice story (although predictable), nice timing humor & great action sequence with top of the line CGI (okla, there was a glimpse of Transformers here & there); probably my experience was accentuated even more by watching it via a 3D IMAX cinema the first time watching it!! |
