Does anyone know if this includes the same extras as the normal Blu-ray?

 

[Strikeman]

I went with Yellow because it was the color on most of the original posters...

I think the yellow is perfect! Reduce his stupid grin to the more sinister Jack look and that's a winner right there

Anyone received it?

We would like some pictures please

 

[Carlos Alberto]

Pictures, people, please.

Pictures, people, please.

you wont get any today mate,maybe tomorrow

 

[j4f]

Ok now they give us the back...
So predictable.

 

[snooloui]

That's fine as long as it is glossy. If it is matte, it will be a disaster with all that black.

 

[matthewtheunicorn]

If this is glossy, I don't think a plain black back with the swirls would look all that bad. I like the pattern. I'd rather a nice glossy finish than a dull steel with great back and inside artwork.

Called it although I don't like how thin the swirls are. They're thicker on the front

Not putting out the full artwork until the orders have dispatched is pretty deceptive marketing on Zavvi's part IMHO.

You should've seen it coming I'm not suprised

Deceptive?

 

[ABjerg]

Zavvi is doing smart business moves that's all. This is what we expected.


- Posting 1/3 of the artwork because the 2/3 of it is crappy as hell
- Not stating the finish of the steel because they won't tell they go for the cheapest
- Often list the prices sky-high
- Often lowering the prices right after release and piss off customers


This is all very smart, right up until people knows their moves and stop buying.

Same with Korean and American retailers who never reveal the artwork unless t is an exclusive.

 

[Starling]

Cancelled. Can't be doing with Zavvi mind games anymore.

There is a big difference between "never revealing" and "not revealing only on the occasions when it could impact sales negatively to do so." Zavvi normally gives us all the artwork before hand but now that I see trough this deception game of theirs I am going to hold off on placing any orders until I am sure exactly what I am getting.

They pulled this same crap with Jungle Book if my memory is correct.

 

[Choi Chungkwon]

Today I knew Zavvi dispatched shipment for this..................

matte finish and no back artwork ??? killing me...

 

[lzxgeorge]

I'll pass. Don't like the cover that much.

 

[DrH]

Here's hoping the postie comes with this today

 

[entreri]

Well, after seeing the back I'm dreading the inside now. Hope I'm wrong though.

EDIT: 7 minutes later, I stand corrected.
