Quick HD-DVD Packaging Question

[Bada Bing]

I've only got the one UK HD-DVD disc, and about 5 or 6 US ones. The UK one I have, Superman Returns has a thicker spin than the US onesand annoys me each time I see it beside the others.

Are all UK ones like that, or is it just the UK version of this particular film?

The UK ones are odd, most are the larger cases but my UK Harry Potter and a Batman Begins I saw in a store are slim cases, so it seems to vary a little.

Thanks mate.

Long shot here, but does anyone know if the US Superman Returns is a slim case? If it is, it has annoyed me sufficiently to replace it with a US one.

Yeap, all US ones I have owned are the slimer cases, including Superman Returns.
You could always try a trade in the classifieds forum, some people prefer the UK one as it is not a Combo (double sided disc) disc, assuming you dont mind it being a Combo

Death to combo's!

I see the logic in them and all- but I hate them, I'd prefer the disc art.

I have always found the cases odd, the seem to differ studio to studio, region to region- same applies with Blu Ray
