Huh? I highly doubt Game of Thrones will be censored. It's a WB/ HBO release and they generally use the same discs around the world and I can't think of a reason why they'd spend time and money releasing a censored version over here.

Most films which have cuts are due to studios trying to secure a particular rating and make more money (Immortals being one such case)... it's also the studio's fault if they can't be bothered to resubmit the full version for home release at the higher rating as well. Same thing with Walking Dead, the studio released the wrong cut on the BD but it's not like the original cut would have been 'banned'. Heck, it might have even had the same rating.

If you knew anything, you would know that

(a) The Walking Dead edits were the distributor's fault, not the BBFC.
(b) Immortals could have been released uncut as an 18, but Universal said no.

But carry on, regardless.

The reasson The Walking Dead is cut in Europe is thanks to some pathetic legal issue. Because the series had to be cut to air on TV thems is the versions that were signed and agreed upon to be sistributed outside of the states, so we can never get the uncut episodes.

Sky_Captain · 02-24-2012, 09:36 PM

It was shown uncut on Channel 5. It's a distributor error, they used the wrong masters.

I hope we get absolutely no delay upon release of these being dispatched. Off course, I hope to get it by release day (though, I've ordered with HMV, which I tend to get on either the Friday or Saturday before), but I have had some bad luck on my most recent Pre-Orders from HMV, and they haven't dispatched until the Friday - not receiving them until about Wednesday.

Hopefully, this will dispatch swift - on Tuesday or Wednesday this coming week, and we'll all have it in our grubby mitts!

It's a shame there is no bonus Season 2 Sneak Peek in the Features though

I was thinking the exact same thing. If ours is like that - I'm a happy fan!

Wow....the US set looks incredible!

Hopefully it will be dispatched by tomorrow evening. Whenever something dispatches from HMV on Tuesday, I always get it by the Friday. If that's the case this time... happy days!

I was hoping for mine this Weekend, but i think as I've gone the Play.com route it's doubtful.

I would have used HMV, but I wanted the book Exclusive and couldn't really say no at £34.99

Mavrick · 02-27-2012, 10:06 PM

Im not expecting mine mefore Monday

Sainsburys never get my pre orders out early yet everytime I see others talk about them they say how they get things super early all the time

But for £29.99 I don't mind waiting. Beggers can't be choosers I guess
