come on dude it was just released in the theater

[Mr. Cinema]

It's still in the top 10 at the box office and still playing in over 2,000 theaters. I'm sure they'll wait a few more weeks before announcing a BD release.

So is Avatar. And it comes out on BD next month.

[Joffner1208]

Yeah no info yet but I know it will be a day one buy for me. But if I had to guess it'd probably be a late may/June release.

[Mat-the-Cat]

Yeah your probably right, June is a good guess.

The movie had such a powerful soundtrack, it should sound AMAZING!

[TokyoLee]

Yea I really want this movie to but,It still in the theater here in NY.
Maybe the end of June release info will be out.

I've never seen this but I want to watch it but I refuse to pay for another theater ticket. I won't expect this to be released on BD until July or August.

If you know Russian, you can buy the legit Russian DVD. It's PAL and slightly more than half the size of HD.

I saw it on the big screen. I think I'll pass on the blu ray on this one. Too freaking intense for me. But if you're into that sort of movie, then go for it, but for me... I'll pass. Not my kind of movie.

Actually, there's a BD of this movie in Russia but it's horrible (scan from film print) and doesn't even have English audio. You can see review here.

Oh, I didn't know they did Blu-ray too. I know they do DVDs that are Russian audio only to combat piracy over there. The stills look soft, but not that bad. The process is telecined where it's taken from a film source. They put out the nice clean copies of the film when the world pretty much the rest of the world gets it on Blu-ray and DVD.

You mean Soyuz-Video? Yes, they do DVD's and Blu-rays but both are pretty bad. I didn't buy this Blu-ray (and won't) but judging by the screenshots (you have to see this one too) contrast is pretty bad. Lack of detail is also upsetting.
But it's quite good compared to Soyuz's release of The Box (comparison between German and Russian Blu-ray: German vs. Russian, German vs. Russian).

I meant in general about studios releasing movies early in Russia. I don't know what studios are over there. I'd like to get some of these but I can't find a Russian website that ships to the U.S.

Yes, and that's a very bad trend because studios can't get normal transfer in 1-2 months after release in cinemas and do telecine.

I don't think there is one but you can try http://ozon.ru

My ultimate extra for this film would involve Martin Scorsese doing a Watchmen style presented commentary thing, and he'd stop the film every time a reference to something else popped up (The Red shoes, early-Fuller, the Mabuse flicks, Welles' films etc), and explained said references. Granted the film would halt almost constantly, and the flick would last for hours, but it would be amazing. There was just so much going on in that film, I truly loved it.

Yeah, I've tried from there but no luck. Luckily, in Thailand this happens too and the studios do it there too. In the past, I've picked up Speed Racer, Horton Hears a Who, AVP:R, and Babylon A.D. about a month after their theatrical release.
