Is HOFD steelbook the US version (cut) or HK version?

It's a Dutch release, perhaps limited to our Media Markt stores. Not sure.

I hope it's uncut. It comes with a bunch of extras like a making-off and such, but I haven't watched it yet. Only Dutch subs I believe.

Why was the US version cut!? What was cut? I thought maybe only the UK version would be cut because of horse falls!?

I thought the US theatrical version was cut for PG-13 and had some blood/violence cut?

The following versions of the movie are known:
- The original Theatrical version,
- The US theatrical version, in which the following has been removed:
-- Jin slitting the throat of a fellow officer,
-- Jin cradling Mei before his fight with Leo,
-- Blood from Mei's wound (digital removal),

According to that site, and I assume I have the Benelux-cut, my version is uncut.
There's a 45 min making-of, storyboards, site-visits, tv-spots and trailers, and a gallery. All the extras seem to come on a 2nd disc, which is just a DVD, sadly. Not a 2nd BR.

Yeah, to confirm: US version was cut for a PG-13 for violence; UK version was unrated version, but had alternate censor cuts made for horse falls.

If the French subtitles on the France BD are not forced I might upgrade my HK DVD and get that

Received:
Cyborg (US BD)
Double Impact (US BD)

Re. Cyborg: MGM missed a trick (more likely didn't give a shit) by not including Pyun's "director's cut" as an extra.

Bought:

- 4x 4000msp for the 360. They were only 25 euro a card, instead of the usual 40+.
- Uncharted 3 (PS3)

Oh, and I bought a new shaver, cause my old one is 3 years old or something like that, so not really all that sharp anymore.
Philips, 40 bucks.

Bummer. Where did you order from and for how much?

Amazon.com, $24.99, which worked out as £15.44 at the time
Its $29.99 now I think

Why did you do it then??

It was the cheapest I'd seen it IIRC.

Hate to say it... but you kinda asked for it if you knew the cost was over the customs limit. I would've waited for a price reduction or paid an extra couple of quid to an importer like Moviemars.

Fair enough..
I'm guessing Moviemars reship from the UK (or is that just on Ebay)? If just over £15 got me nabbed then £21 willl.
Forgot to say I actually pre ordered from Amazon

As I've said multiple times, they reship from Surrey, I use them all the time They're the best to pre-order Criterions from.

Received: In the Mood for Love (Criterion Blu-ray).

How much was it and where from (Moviemars I guess)?

Wheyyy he finally gets it! Yep, $36.09 (£22.95) altogether.

Was it their Ebay store or do they have a site?

grim_tales wrote:Was it their Ebay store or do they have a site?

They do, but I always just use them through eBay.

Fair enough

Grim: You can get it a bit cheaper here:

Yeah, it was pre-orders I was referring to btw.

Thanks Mark I wonder if that Moviemars reships from the UK too? (Yes I know theyre the same seller but maybe they could operate differently depending on where they sell their stuff?)
