I just read the fine print on my F&F Set. Each coupon that contains the code for Digital Copy actually has an expiry date (14/4/12) So ok la.. then i tried downloading it via iTunes.. and got an error message - "This download is only valid in UK and Ireland"

Sigh... at least all 5 BD works fine. All Digital copy discs can use as frisbee now.

You need UK iTune account for UK digital copy and likewise US iTune account for US digital copy. blush.gif

oh ok... i forgot only taukeh like u can do this hehe... biggrin.gif for me, either watch first at cinema or download first and if like only then buy... but depends on price etc also la...

No lah. I am not taukeh, just lazy to visit cinema since already got BD, cinema not longer satisfy my need and too lazy to download and wait. So, end up have to blind buy based on others review. wink.gif

This time I decided to go for US version since a bit angry on UK version which occasionally cut some length compared to US version, cheaper for US version and US version release early with Universal slipcover that I still don't have any. blush.gif

According to BBFC no cuts were made on Jaws  thumbup.gif

U might want to reconsider  brows.gif

R u getting Safe House (steelbook) at amazon.uk

You have to beware about the words, no cuts. Sometimes, it will mislead you. Because the Studios can cut first before send to BBFC for classification. In that case, BBFC, of course, no cuts lah.

Anyway, I think I will stick to US version, not because it cut or not but a bit tired of steelbook tongue.gif . Currently no intention to get Safe House since I feel it is only so so... tongue.gif

Like that I will have to rethink and do some research....

Like Immortals, the cuts was requested by the studios themselves because they don't want an 18 rating  doh.gif

Feel a bit 'rugi' buying it  cry.gif

That is another reason I a bit give up UK steelbook. Another reason is Region B locked. A bit lazy to convert Region B locked disc to BD ISO. tongue.gif

only once, period.

for me it's a good movie but not the type that i want to watch on repeated viewing.... but having said that, I owned the 3-disc collector's edition dvd and until now never touch disc-1 which is the movie; only watched the supplementary features...  thumbup.gif

Your copy of 3-disc collector's edition dvd, is it the out-of-print US version? If yes, someone in US just mentioned, he sold his sealed copy in eBay a month ago for US$75. Perhaps, you can sales your copy and get Blu-ray version with some extra profit. tongue.gif

bro, based on your collection of 3D BD movies so far, is it worth or any good, or maybe just so-so etc.... can share your experience? i mean this more for home theatre viewing experience on 3Ds...  hmm.gif

sweat.gif Sorry, can't answer your question yet. Since I still haven't got 3D TV and Blu-ray 3D player... tongue.gif

Don't faint. laugh.gif

I usually get 3D Blu-ray that come whit 2D Blu-ray. 3D Blu-ray is for future investment. So that when I upgrade to 3D, not need to buy 3D Blu-ray again.

any reasons?

r they active 3D?

recently, i demo'ed LG Cinema3D TVs...3D effects looks great and feels good with the glass (passive 3D)

Review for ST50 seem like really not bad. Yes, it is active. ST50 is more value for money than VT50 although VT50 is better than ST50.

A lot of ppl give good comment for LG passive 3D. I, myself, never try yet. But passive 3D problem is resolution unless, you sit far away. But active 3D also got issues with feel of the glasses (ie weight, dizzy (for some ppl)). So, you have to test yourself which is better for you. hmm.gif

yup, heard bout the "half-reso" thingy, but LG has come out with a new firmware to address it to FULL HD.

http://www.flatpanelshd.com/news.php?subac...l&id=1304582822

not sure whether does it apply to ALL LG Cinema3D TVs, or selected model.
