Nice!!

SymbioticFunction · 01-28-2020, 03:15 PM

Watched this when I had a free Prime trial. Best television show I've seen in a long time (I thought Good Omens was good but this was much better). Great that it's coming to blu-ray.

Everyone says this is really good, my wife included.

SymbioticFunction · 01-28-2020, 04:07 PM

It's top-class stuff levcore, I strongly recommend it. A violent and witty satire on superheroes with excellent acting performances. It's very rare for me to buy television on blu-ray but I'll certainly pick this up.

I like my superhero stuff... a little more generic shall we say

Fair enough. Superman or Spiderman it is not.

Edit: Although one character is a Superman 'type.'

No longer available to preorder on Amazon UK

Neither are most things, try HMV or Zoom.

Per the Australian release, this is confirmed to be a 3-disc set. Here is the back cover:

According to the BBFC, those deleted scenes are about 15 minutes, with the blooper reel running 4 minutes.

If you liked Watchmen, you'll probably like The Boys. That's the closest comparison that comes to mind. I personally loved the show and can't wait for season 2.

If it was 4k I would be in

GiorgioV · 04-11-2020, 05:42 PM

Fantastic show. Such a mix of different genres. Sci-fi, of course, lots of drama, but with a bunch of hilarious moments in it too. Those with The Deep almost had me laughing to tears.
Can't wait for season 2.

I hope the discs themselves are region A compatible and that region logo on the back cover is a mistake (that does happen often). It looks like there isn't going to be a USA release of this, unfortunately.

i think Sony still region lock their blu-ray releases so you'll have to get a region free player or try waiting it out for a UHD release

Still? They have rarely ever.

CrazyBlu-RayFan · 05-11-2020, 01:16 PM

This is confirmed the be region B locked. That's upsetting. I hope Sony will make a USA release soon.

I was (pleasantly) surprised that it's gotten a physical release over here. I'd previously thought that it would remain an Amazon Prime streaming exclusive as a selling factor for that service. Nice that I'll be able to own and watch a physical copy. btw My Zoom despatched copy hasn't arrived today, hopefully tomorrow.

I don't like Watchmen much... apart from the opening credits.

I was referring to the movie. I haven't seen the series yet.
