What could be a bigger fail than the ice mask and embossed nipples??
OOPS!

I have had the US blu ray version for a few years now and made my own steelbook last year before I knew it was getting a UK release...

Magnetic business card On the front. All blood work and chainsaw created with vinyl sticker ( which isn't perfect but all I can do for homemade)... let me know what you think?

Very nice. Where did you get the blank template steelcase? (I know they are kinda hard to find now).
Or did you utilize and old one? Give us the deets!

Very impressive @Brickleyblu! Love the minimalist design.

Thanks mate. It was a steelbook of a french movie I got in a double pack with 'drive' ( No English subs so thought I would utilise the case) took 5 coats of white matt spray paint from b&q over about 5 hrs ( an hr to dry after each application. The card was proper business card card and the magnet used was from one of the fridge photo frames you can buy..

Thanks a lot. I thought that a clean and minimalist look would fit the tone of the film nicely...splattered with blood of course. ..

Turns out the UK BD is the inferior 1080i disc....

Hats off to you. Looks absolutely stunning.
Now all you have to do is get a gloss finish on it to protect the artwork (the stickers) and you're done! Unique, one of a kind item.

Whaaat?

 

[lolwut]

Whaaat?

You want the Australian disc to get the best picture quality.

Generally I prefer 1080p over 1080i. The US version is 1080p.
Though reading through the reviews of the Australian version, I get the impression there is quite a bit of improvement which I hadn't realized:

no reason to laugh.

It's definitely better.

have it already.

 

[Flloydo]

Winds me up, why can't they just use the same decent transfer everywhere!!!!!!!!

 

[antpic14]

It's definitely better.

I may have to search for this and replace my disc once I get the steelbook.

 

[antpic14]

I thought the Australian disc was region free, but many of the ebay sellers list it as Region B ???

I guess they are just using the default Blu-ray region code for Australia to be on the safe side.

The back of the case clearly shows ABC:

Is it confirmed that this steelbook will have the 1080i version or is this assumed because of the regular bluray version that was released on Zavvi recently?
