Platoon: released on 8/21 in Korea... - Blu-ray Forum

yspkrk · 07-14-2008, 08:37 PM

I just checked a website and I got the info. The price is around $20. It features 1080p/English DTS HD MA 5.1. I think I'm importing the title from Korea. Here's the image...

hmm...looks good, but i think i'll wait till the release in the US. Imports are sometimes shady on the PQ.

Sith · 07-14-2008, 09:13 PM

It's coming to the U.S. if it's being released elsewhere. I'll be picking this up as well.

Great find! Thanks

Care to give us some examples of what you are referring too?

Also, if I'm not mistaken this would need to be a region free BD or it's not going to play on Region 1 BDP's....unless of course you own a region free BDP.

For Blu-ray, the US and Korea are both in Region A, so there would be no problem.

Has anyone checked this disc out in terms of pq/aq?

Is it a 50/25GB disc?

HumanMedia · 09-25-2008, 01:27 AM

Isnt the release date Sept 30?

i heard that this was coming in July but was postponed/cancelled. Maybe its finally coming now?

HumanMedia · 10-02-2008, 02:09 PM

Now due Oct 30?

HumanMedia · 10-29-2008, 11:57 PM

Postponed to Nov 21?

sfmarine · 10-30-2008, 12:10 AM

I won't buy Platoon until we get the 2-disk dvd port over. There's no excuse for Fox/Mgm to screw us with a trailer.....I'm still feuding over Kingdom of Heaven.

Feuding or fuming?

Hear you about Kingdom of Heaven. Its criminal that they didn't include all of the extras.

Kalekulan · 01-05-2010, 02:01 PM

Did this get a release? Where to buy?

Never came out. No idea if it will anytime soon given MGMs current status.

equilibrer · 06-04-2010, 05:46 AM

It seems that Platoon is finally coming out:

I have no experience of these Deltamac releases, so what is their line on region coding? So, is it to be expected that Platoon will be regionfree or region A only? I have a Region B player only.

And are these Deltamac-releases 100% identical to Usa / international releases (in encoding etc.) or is there a possibility that they will hassle with these release only by they own?
