Question Will these work on U.S. PS3s?

Will these work on U.S. (Region A) PS3 players? I thought I read somewhere that all Sony BDs are Region Free?

Sony BDs are region coded, but only when the film is still in a theatrical window. Otherwise they are region free, which means: The Spideys will be region free.

But I'm sure we will see an anouncement for the US soon...

I would be VERY surprised if these came out in the UK before the US, I think you can safely wait till you can order the US versions.

I'm not sure; maybe it was true at one time but no longer. Entertainment in Video (UK) announce there first wave of Blu-ray titles all to be coded Region B.

Currently on UK Blu-Ray not in US

The Rock REGIONS ALL
Exorcism of Emily Rose REGION ALL
Gothika REGION ALL
Con Air REGION ALL
Air Force One REGION ALL

I did a currency conversion for most of these that sell for £26.99 that comes out to a little over $55 US dollars-I can't believe they charge that much.

Pre-orders for UK not announced in US
Starship Troopers 8/6 REGION 2
Cinderella Man 11/30 REGION 2
Lucky Number Slevin 8/13 REGION 2
U-571 8/13 REGION 2
Hostage 8/13 REGION 2
Breaking and Entering 8/27 REGION 2
Bruce Almighty 8/6 REGION 2 (not being listed as universal but as buena vista ent)
Becoming Jane 9/10 Region 2
The Island 7/30 REGIONS ALL
Gangs of New York 9/30 REGIONS ALL
Brokeback Mountain 9/30 ALL REGIONS
Spiderman 3 10/15 REGIONS ALL
The Crow (2 Disc) 9/30 REGIONS ALL

Something smells fishy to me... All these cool movies being release outside the USA. Do they want us buying and importing those movies and then buying when they release on Blu-ray here too? Are the democrates involved in this somehow?

Does anyone know if the UK versions even have the same quality video/audio as the US does?

I could see audio tracks potentially being dropped, but that's more likely to be commentaries as with the Pirates discs, but why would you think the picture quality would be inferior?

The thing which i find funny is that Play has Spidey 3 listed at £17.99 where as all three movies are going for £39.99. £17.99 x 3 = £53.97!

I know Sony are being generous at the moment but seems strange that they would let their biggest movies go for that price. Anyone else agree?

Pre-order as soon as you can then so they cannot change the price on you.
