The boring steelbook artwork is keeping me from ordering this. Even the gitd image is .

this was a hit zombie movie in korea. and this is the first glow in the dark steelbook.

other than the above, its high price is also getting it a lot of attention.

Yes, it's a bit pricier than usual. But you must remember this includes TWO full feature films. Which is reasonable enough IMO.

The French steelbook also contains the 2 films and it was sold 25 € with zero finish. Even with what's more, the price is not justified. I wanted to take the 1/4 slip but I gave up.

The French edition was useless unless you were French though.

Not English friendly and not a premium package. No comparisons there.......

oh yeah i forgot there's Seoul Station included. and a CD soundtrack too. hmm that CD would add a few dollars. PA should have given one option without the CD as i don't think many would care about the soundtrack.

i don't understand why the 1/4 slip is sold out as there is no print run stated. so this is not an open pre-order?

You say, "you must remember this includes TWO full feature films" to justify the prize. So you're talking about content and no container. So as I also talk about content, it's quite comparable. And in addition it has a matte finish and the 1/4 slip is at the same price as other editions.
So we can largely compare and say that the price is very excessive.

Does the French SteelBook have
- english subs
- DTS:X, DTS-HD MA, and DTS: Headphone X tracks
- all-new making documentaries
- original soundtrack CD
?
Is the content really comparable?

PA also foot the bill for new making-of content produced especially for this version AFAIK which also factors in to production costs. I anticipated the price would probably be higher as a result and imagined just as when people wanted english subtitled extras on Old Days/OldBoy extras - they would also want it here. But no one seemed to care to ask for them. Could have probably been added and made people feel they were getting more content for their money. Or at least content that was english friendly anyway.

Our disagreement is that there are two films, not the rest. This is the argument of BluSteel2012 that I dispute, it seemed rather clear from the start. But, if you are happy to have put nearly 60 € for this edition, I am also happy for you.

From PA Facebook

Director Yeon not only approved the Train to Busan + Seoul Station Blu-ray Steelbook, but he was involved in the making of the product's video, audio, and artwork.

This is the World's First Glow-in-the-Dark Steelbook. Made in Denmark.

Train to Busan features DTS:X, DTS-HD MA, and DTS: Headphone X.

Train to Busan also features a brand new Special Making Documentary, Crew Commentary, and an Original Soundtrack CD.

Seoul Station features Behind the Scenes and Audio Commentary by Director Yeon and Film Critic Na.

 

[eLviS1987]

What's the difference??

DTS-HD MA only vs. DTS:X, DTS-HD MA, and DTS: Headphone X

And you contradicted me on points that I had not touched on. It was not hard to understand ...
