If it's any use I'm in FL and amazon uk orders usually reach me in 6-7 days, with standard shipping. As for the estimate on this maybe they have low quantities for some reason?

It seems to me that they've upped shipping estimates since that volcanic ash thing. I often order from Amazon uk and the estimates have always been under 2 weeks from dispatch (arriving in about a week.)
The 3 orders dispatched since then have had just over 3 weeks estimated (arriving in 7-11 days)
Estimates for 4th and 8th of June arrived today.

Hey guys, I got this in the mail today, and have updated the database listing to include the Audio tracks, video codec and aspect ratio (measured and confirmed).

Enjoy!

Maybe it's just me, but the extras aren't playing on my PS3. I read that the extras should be in 1080 and that they'd play on US systems... but so far, aside from the movie, only the theatrical trailer and photo gallery are playing for me. I'm currently updating my PS3 to see if that helps, but so far, nothing

EDIT: I tried it on my standalone Samsung player... and miraculously, every extra feature played! Not sure why the PS3 was putting up a fight, but the Samsung played each one without a hitch.

stadanko · 05-26-2010, 10:28 PM

I posted after you on the other forum. Yeah it seems the ps3 will not play any of the extra's. I thought well maybe my regular bluray player will play them.... Nope. Coincidence that it's also a sony player? I'm really disappointed about this.

Hmm, mine just shipped from amazon.co.uk.
I ordered this from the UK instead of picking up the BU disc specifically b/c of the extras. I only have a PS3 so i really hope the extras play.
Anyone else having troubles with this on a R1/A PS3? Hoping i wont have to send it back.

stadanko · 05-28-2010, 05:21 AM

Yeah they're not going to work. It has to do with the extras being in 1080i/50hz. It seems none of the sony players support it. I'm keeping my copy anyways, figure if my standalone breaks down in the future I will be able to watch them.

None of the reviews mentioned this, which is the only reason I'm pissed.

csdot · 05-30-2010, 09:17 PM

my samsung player played all the extras no problem

SymbioticFunction · 05-31-2010, 09:39 PM

Common consensus from those who have compared, is that BU released the better looking version (complaints of digital noise & compression for the Arrow release). Irritated at myself for pre-ordering & now owning the UK version. Film comes first, not extras...

The difference is minimal imo.

Ooops! thats probably my fault. Yesterday I made them aware that it is only one disc, not two (as advertised), and they told me they would 'investigate' it (after giving me a refund lol)
