Immortel (Ad Vitam) - Blu-ray Forum

Any love for this? I want this on Blu, and I want it yesterday. lol

Immortal (French: Immortel (ad vitam)) is a 2004 English language, but French-produced science fiction film, directed by artist Enki Bilal and based upon his graphic novel La Foire aux immortels (The Carnival of Immortals). The film combines live action footage with computer animation, and received mixed reviews. It is notable as being one of the first major films (along with Able Edwards, Casshern and Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow) to be shot entirely on a "digital backlot", blending live actors with computer generated surroundings. Immortel goes one step further than those films, however, in also having live actors interacting with semi photo-realistic CGI "humans" (as opposed to films such as Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace and The Lord of the Rings film trilogy which featured fantasy creatures).

love the graphic novel, the film doesn't come close. sadly. I'll get the Blu nevertheless.

I REALLY like this movie. I'll probably get the U.S. BD release in December (though the DVD is actually pretty good looking).

Groo The Perverted · 11-12-2008, 06:46 PM

Wait....so this IS out on BD? or it's definitely coming out on BD?

any news/specs?

I had the import dvd which came in a clear plastic case. I lost it and I've never found it again. Totally awesome package.

WOW! wonder why it's that low.

Wonder what the specs are.

Kris Deering · 11-14-2008, 06:42 PM

First Look is releasing it and they've been pretty good about putting Dolby TrueHD soundtracks on most their titles with only a miss or two.

First Look have been set on mass pricing (examples:The Proposition, Paris je t'aime) which of course is something we all desire.

Pro-B

One of the weirdest movies I've seen but I like it and plan to get the blu-ray in Dec.

TheTenth · 11-15-2008, 12:52 AM

any idea if it's region free?

Groo The Perverted · 11-15-2008, 05:02 AM

It's the US Release, so it's Region 1

Proposition from First Look was region free, don't know about Paris, je t'aime. I think there is a good chance, Ad Vitam will be region free.

There is no Region 1 in Blu-ray, I thought people knew that by now? First Look titles have been Region Free for the most part. This is a 1st day pick up for me, even though some of the CGI is laughable.

Well Region A or whatever. lol

I just ordered it. Now I better get this b*tch early. Everyone talking about Amazon shipping things early and whatnot. If I don't get it early I'm gonna be mad! lol
