Dredd (Blu-ray SteelBook) [Japan]
- Thread starter domalorite
- Start date
Ebbing, check out the Conventions/Events sub-forum! We could use another Con addict! I so want to attend that Sacramento Con to meet Hemsworth. I absolutely have to work that day or else I'd be there with Hemsworth VIP. I even looked into flying in that Sunday morning and out later that after noon.

Great hearing all your signing stories!
Have fun all who are meeting Karl Urban in the near future!
He’s a fantastic guy who really cares about his fans!
Here's a rather bad low res picture of my Empire Magazine subscriber copy that he signed for your consideration:

Awesome stuff guys! 
I really do hope that one day we see a full gloss 3D included Dredd steel. Whoever brings that out will see it sell out fast. It would be my Holy Grail title!

to be fair although this doesnt include 3d, its still my favourite steelbook by a mile! i just watch my oridinary 3d blu ray when i wana watch it 
Ordered this today and already been dispatched.
There's two other reasons I ordered the *** version(apart from the steely)
And that reason is DTS: NeoX and region free. The UK version has omitted the DTS: Neo X. US version is 3D and Region Locked. I'll get the US version as soon as I have a region free Blu Ray player.

Dredd is one of the few 'live action' movies I've seen where I think the 3D effect is put to good use and looks great. But I keep reading that 3D is a dead duck.
Love seeing all these autograph posts - would be great to get Karl to auto my steelbook.
so i finally ordered this 
ive chosen the 150Yen gift option in hope it would be better packaged.. or should i have chosen the 300yen option ?

150 option is protection enough!!
Recieved this yesterday. Give it the old Neo X setting on my reciever,cranked it up a bit and it sounded fantastic. Steely is more than fine in quality, don't know what the grumbles and mumbles are about.
In the chapter select screen(On main menu), The "live" previews of the chapters is excellent, I don't think I've ever seen that implemented in a Blu Ray before.
I don't know if it's just me. I think the picture quality has slightly improved over the UK 3D Edition(In 2D)..imo, Less grain.

The Dark Knight trilogy has it, amongst many many other blu rays I have... It's very handy to help you find a certain point!
This is one lovely steel and I also have the FNAC "tin box". Karl Urban was great in this movie as it is miiiiiiles better than the Sly one. I just loved the digital effects and the slooooooow motion effects. Highly recommended both the steel and movie.
Keep seeing so many nice signed etc Karl Urban things...I am envious!

btw. which version has the best picture quality ? this or the fnac release? are there any differences?
As far as my research has revealed, there's very little difference in PQ between the French MelalPak and the Japanese Steelbook.
They're both superior to the UK combo disc as regards contrast and colour saturation, though the 3D of the French disc offers little noticeable improvement over the UK disc.
The major difference comes with the audio, with the Japanese disc providing a meaty English: DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 (96kHz, 24-bit) and the French English: DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1.
Hope this helps.
I also found the Japanese 7.1 DTS superior to the U.S. 7.1 DTS.
It's louder and clearer on my set up anyway.

Japanese version is also optimised for Neo X up to 11.1 channels.
Euro versions have no Neo X optimisation.
Arrived today. This is one utterly mediocre steelbook :-/ how can any1 say that this is high quality ffs... its bare steel for most of the artwork, colors are bad, etc.. pretty pissed ive spent 42€ for this 
and its far worse than braveheart and any of the playcom releases.. i honestly cant see where this is even close to their quality ><
