Good news from Spain thanks to Dani. [More]
Day: September 12, 2002
The release date has not been confirmed yet, but it is expected an early December release due to Christmas sales. [I’m assuming he’s talking about the extended version – T.]
The price of the big edition will be 60 •, the extended part will be translated by the same actors as the cinema version, and even the audio comments will be subtitled.
Also, there’s good new about this… the National Geographic will be included in Spain and Germany, as I’ve been told, though it is not 100% confirmed.
So, if things go on like this, we will have the full Extended edition with an impressive work of translation. And cheaper than other countries, wich is certainly rare!!.
Thanks to Dani for the news
