guys's what is the difference between HDzeta and Filmarena?

Welcome to the forum! 2 different smaller retailers-one located in China (Hdzeta) one in CZ (Chech Rep). Both release exclusives with extras that have become very popular amongst collectors-each version is a bit different.

The difference between the retailers or the packages? I guess I'll answer both...

HDzeta is a retailer based in China, and FilmArena is a retailer based in Czech Republic. As for the packages... the HDzeta edition is limited to 500 copies and will include both 2D+3D. The FilmArena edition is limited to 2000 copies and also includes both 2D+3D. I guess the real difference though is the artwork on the slips (steelbook art is the same for both as far as we know) and the contents, which you can see and compare below...

Thanks guys The last question, both have glossy finish?

I think HDzeta has beeter Lenti. FilmArena better price as far as i can forecast.

 

[Maximus15]

i much prefer the fullsip from FA, cleaner, less cluttered and lighter. The lenti is much of a muchness on both releases and doesn't bother me, but the extras on FA far outweigh HDzeta!

The cardstock used by FilmArena is also superior in my opinion. I'm just looking at some of their previous releases and HDZetas.

The Gladiator, Saving Private Ryan and San Andreas from HdZETA I have ... the card stock is not as good as FilmArena's Terminator 3, Ex Machina, Ghostrider, T1. FilmArena releases are way thicker, nicer to touch as well. HDZeta's card stock feels a bit sticky to me.

The Full slips of FA are much better quality than HDzeta. The price and the extras of FA are better.

Bring on the gb .

Don't understand why some have a problem with Matt Damon as the front artwork. The movie title is "The Martian". The movie is about "The Martian". So it fits perfectly.

I don't think the problem is Matt Damon so much, I think people have more of a problem with BIG heads for artwork!!

Yeah, it's not the best finish unfortunately... but that's why we have a slip to cover it up.

I'm guessing they thought, yes, it will be Matt(e) Damon
