I noticed this when I compared the price to the American version.

Yup, a few years ago I had that with the UK. It was actually fucking cheaper to buy something from the UK and ship it across the planet to Australia.

In unrelated news, there's like 1 retailer in Australia selling this shit now!

Question for those who have seen it. As much as I adore this film, I'm not exactly sure what the last scene meant. I saw it in October and I hope to watch it again soon, but I've always remembered Macbeth ending traditionally with Malcolm on the throne inviting everyone to see him be crowned.

I didn't fully understand this new ending (if it has been used in any other adaptation, please let me know) with Banquo's son picking up Macbeth's sword and running away. I don't know what the significance of that is.

Did nothing for me. Couldn't understand a damn word they were saying, and this is coming from a person who read Macbeth quite a few times when I was in school years ago. Maybe I forgot lol, or I just don't feel like this works on the big screen. I didn't care for the fighting or slow-motion effects. Completely unnatural dialogue. Sure, it's Macbeth, but this shouldn't try to act like a novel, especially in conversation. I would have preferred a film adaptation that tries to do something different, I don't care about the purists who want the same vocabulary. Thought it was boring to be honest. Cotillard delivered though. Director did what he could I guess but it wasn't my cup of tea.

Looking forward to this but not going to lie I have a tough time with Shakespeare on screen.

You'll probably hate it. A lot of it is extremely true to the source material.

I doubt I'll hate it. I really enjoyed Hollow Crown, I just have a tough time with the language translated to screen.
