got my copy of this...but am having problems with the slipcase. The keepcase doesn't wanna come out. Wanted to see the transfer already kasi. ;) I think the seal sticker on the side is sticking to the acrylic.  Already tried backing it with paper but to no avail. I need HELP...any suggestions? ;)

Had the same problems with my copy. I think the slipcase or the shrinkwrap is too tight so it is very difficult to remove & return the Amaray case. What I did was just push & pull it out firmly but carefully. Will finish watching everything before returning it back to the slipcase. Regarding the transfer, I have not seen the previous editions so cannot compare. However I think the 20th Anniversary transfer still leaves a lot of room for improvement. There are still noticeable specks & dirt. For me, the best thing about this edition are the SPecial Features.

hey.. would this release be similar to R2 in terms on contents? i would order the R1 for the price but still prefers the Region 2 UK release packaging-wise.

finally got the keepcase out of the slipcase...the seal sticker on the side was definitely holding the case in place. ;) Will probably get to watch this on the weekend... ;)

sir redge, it seems that the R2 UE is similar to the R1 in terms of contents...the booklet for both is similar. No postcard for the R1 though. Disc art is different for R2. Content wise...same listed features also. Ganda ng R2 sir redge... ;)

checked transfer late last night...it isn't what I expected. I haven't seen the previous editions' transfers though it seems that this isn't deserving of a re-issue since the transfer isn't any good. But the slipcase is kick-a**! ;D

I guess it'll do for now... ;D
