Interesting, THX meant very little on DVD though.

Re: ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ THX-Certification

This is the French version that is available (very nice):



No English subs or dubs though.

Re: ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ THX-Certification

God, should I double dip or not ? what a fantastic film it is, utterly compelling stuff, but the dvd was pretty good, and I'm not sure. If somebody could let us know the quality I would be very grateful.

Re: ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ THX-Certification

Hi Tejstar

Sorry for the late reply (had the nieces and outlaws over this weekend and have only just recovered ).

Amazon France have it for €49.99 (~£33.91):

Re: ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ THX-Certification

Another link about the THX-certification:
http://www.thx.com/news/20070521A.html

The HD DVD Format Blog relating to this box set:
http://hddvdformat.blogspot.com/2007...labyrinth.html

I can't find anything specifically reviewing the HD DVD part of this boxset yet. If I do, I'll post it here.

Cheers

Re: ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ THX-Certification

Any ideas whether this five-set edition will be coming to either the UK/US? The only thing putting me off is the French writing.

Re: ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ THX-Certification

No idea about a release date for a UK or US release yet.

Will keep you posted if I do find out (if anyone else does them please post it here).

Re: ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ THX-Certification

Maybe it'll come out in Canada with English subs like the Brotherhood of the Wolf 3-disc from a few years ago.

Re: ‘Pan’s Labyrinth’ THX-Certification

I found the SD-DVD better than going to the Cinema! In our local VUE they have the ambient lighting too high and because this film is really dark it hurt me poor 'blinkers'. Watched the SD-DVD at home and it was much better, but still had to change the Panny Plasma from 'Cinema' to 'Auto' to get the best out of all those dark scenes. Hopefully the HD-DVD will be even better, top film as well.
