No need to be nervous. AV quality is just as good as the international versions on all of the IN BD's I own. It's just that some, but not necessarily all movies, can have cuts to comply with CBFC restrictions.

What is top-bottom black patches? Are you talking about the black strips on top and bottom while playing a wide screen format movies right?

Normally most Indian companies like Reliance, eagle, excel etc normally markets the DVD/ BDs. The production is normally based on the master from the original studio and being reproduced. Many times it can be outsourced as well or may be done in house based on the facility available. For example for BDs, Sony DADC do the production for many marketing group.

There was a good post by an FM with an infographic regarding aspect ratio's. Sadly I don't recall/have the link. To summarize, from what I recall even though it's a bluray whether you get letter-boxing/pillars (H/V black bars) or not depends on the aspect ratio the movie was shot in or something like that. So it's not that the Indian bluray releases of the international movies which is the problem. Here's another link I could find with a Google search that explains aspect ratio among other things:

Everything You Wanted To Know About Video: Simplified [Infographic/Cheat Sheet] | Conner Productions

Scroll down for the aspect ratio section. Maybe this will help explain until someone stops by with a better explanation.
 
Yesterday I have ordered 6 BDs for 2375/- and still my cart holds 27 titles for 14K :mad: already spent lot of money in last 2 months :mad: :sad:
 
By Alien Anthology costs me ONLY 1790/- here in India :ohyeah:

It is available for 1999/-, I am not sure the content is less than the other Anthology editions (which are costly), other has 6 BDs in the pack but it has only 4, any difference? Special features etc?

Please update here.

I went to the shop today.

Symphony in Calcutta is offering buy 2 bds and get 1 free scheme. But for the 2 bds, you have to pay the MRP. But you get the 3rd bd for free.

You can buy these same bd's for 20% off also.

The yash raj movies bds are being offered for 12-15% discount on MRP.


There's another shop which is offering flat 20% discount bds. They are not giving any bill/ invoice but all are original.

Right now, online purchase looks better.
 
Thanks RMCWS....i think I will take break from BDs now.:o

Hindi BDs can wait...when they will be like 300-400 i will buy :indifferent14:
 
No, I am talking about this version. See this too. It has special features mentioned on the slip cover but why the BDs are less (6 to 4)? Also the duration difference 550 minutes to 350 minutes.

Chill guyZ, my alien steelbook is same like UK play.com exclusive 4 Discs set WITH ALL EXTRAS. BUT extras are less than the 6 Discs set.

the detailed specs are given on play.com website- check the customer Reviews for details :)

I have the "Alien Anthology", on DVD. It is one of the purchases, i have regretted. Although, the DVD set is of 9 discs, i felt that the last two movies were a total drag - kind of push-pull arrangement to milk the last bit of juice out of the franchise. To all those who purchased this, many congrats, and I hope that you enjoy the collection more than I have.
