Sky Captain R3 @ CDWOW

Thanks for the heads up, been waiting for this!
 
Many thanks - gone for this one too!
 
Beware. I have read elsewhere (but can't confirm) the soundtrack on the R3 item is DD2.0 Stereo/surround. Not 5.1.
 
Apparently it's getting more and more difficult to get discounts at .com, but you can get it a bit cheaper if you order it from the .us site and use the $2 discount link that you can get from the usual place....

Looks like you're right. Their site now says "Audio: English - Dolby Digital Stereo"!! :mad:

Mine's on the way now, so nothing I can do about it. Just have to chalk it up to experience! :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored:


EDIT: I hope it doesn't turn out to be like the R3 of Around The World In 80 Days, or it will be a complete waste of space!

Cheapest option for this 3 disc set is from .us: USD 17.95. And if you use the 2 dollar discount link you get it for USD 15.95...
 
I posted earlier about the R3 version having what i thought was a problem soundtrack. 'LV426' kindly pointed out then that R3 version was in facy only stereo!!
CD WOW were cool about me returning it and I pre ordered the R1 5.5 version, this was delivered in a matter of days. Great no problem until I now read CD WOW have released the 6.1 R3 version. Do I scream now or later!!!!
Let me say again CD WOW customer services were excellent but what a pity they didn't have the knowledge and foresight to reccommend that the 6.1 version would soon be available. I think I might be pushing my luck to see if CD WOW will exchange it for a second time. With so few 6.1 DVD's out there it would have been my first choice had i known!!
 
It does look like this misses out on the commentaries that are on the other versions, so that might be a reason for keeping your R1 (don't know how interested you are in them).

Not bothered about commentaries, never really listen to them anyway!
 
Here's a big THANKS to CD WOW, I did push my luck and ask for another exchange and CD WOW have agreed with no problem!! This is excellent service and i I can now look forward to a DTS 6.1 soundtrack. Not bothered about commentaries either.

...even better due to the fact you can choose the currency you want to pay with. My credit card charges a fee for non-GBP transactions!
 
What´s on the third disc, anyone know? Is it any different than the Region 1 & 2 double disc?
 
Whats the film like ? It got panned and looks a bit snide to me ?
 
I enjoyed the film, despite the fact that Gwyneth Paltrow was terrible in it. Well, either she was terrible, or brilliantly recreating the stilted 1930s style performances from leading ladies in B movies of the time.

I enjoyed the fact that it was all filmed on greenscreen, I thought it was put together quite well.

I don't always agree with the critics, but then I have a less 'professional' eye and just go by what I enjoy.
 
i have just checked my copy and i am annoyed it is the stereo version. i was contemplating ordering the 3 disc version, when i thought i would check my orders at cdwow to see if it said it that the soundtrack was stereo.

this was what is displayed as being sent:
DVD Region 3: Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow: Collector's Edition (6.1/ DTS ES)

i will be contacting them asap and asking them why they have sent out the stereo soundtracked version.i did only pay 8.99 for it so i would suggest you check your order history as it appears that they have to send out the 3 disc collectors edition for free.
