I wasn't aware of that Solomon Kane disc. I bought the one from Amazon.co.uk a while ago and it is definitely not USA friendly.

Today, Dec. 13th I recieved my Solomon Kane blu ray that I ordered on Nov.28th from free record shop.nl which is in The Netherlands. It took only 16 days from the day I ordered it, until it arrived to me in San Diego, CA. I'm very impressed with the shipping time. As far as the price, it was $28.45 US dollars including shipping.

OK, now onto the Blu ray. It's the exact one as posted in the thread a few posts above mine, I believe it's #7 post. The movie has 3 or 4 trailers that are in english, with Dutch subtitles. After that, the movie begins, there is no menu. The movie is in english with forced Dutch subtitles. I tried a combination of several buttons on my remote to try and get to the menu, if there is one, so that I could turn off the subtitles, but no luck. UPDATE : FORGOT TO POST THIS EARLIER, BUT I CAN TURN OFF THE FORCED SUBTITLES USING THE "SUBTITLES" BUTTON ON THE REMOTE FOR MY OPPO BLU RAY PLAYER.

I just demoed it very quickly to see if it would play, and it did, so I'm very happy. Like I mentioned, just glance at it in a few places, but the picture looks pretty good. I'll give it a 4 to 4.5 out of 5 on the picture quality. As for the audio, maybe a 4.5 to 5 out of 5. There is a bombardment of cannons in the
beginning of the movie and it sounded great. The audio is in DTS HD master

As for what I'm playing it on, here is the list of main equiptment. All USA equiptment, with USA player, NOT modded.

Pioneer Elite PRO FHD-1......monitor
Onkyo TX-SR875.....reciever
Oppo BDP-83.....blu ray player
Paradigm Studio 100 V.5.....mains
Paradigm CC-590 V.5.....center
Paradigm ADP-390 V.5.....surrounds
SVS PB12-Plus....sub


I attached a picture of my set up. Since I took this, the center channel has been moved forward, and that support bracket in front of it, has been moved behind the center channel. If you have any questions about the Solomon Kane, feel free to pm me.

I can second, from Ferrarri Fan. I purchased the Solomon Kane Dutch import from E-Bay from user nujay, and was pleased with his service and the quality of the disk.
