In Bruges

[Blazinhot]

Im a little upset now this movie caught my eye and i needed to find out who distributes the movie bc i refuse to support universal and paramount right now and to my suprise its focus features which seems to be part of universal now my super bowl sunday has started off pretty bad bc i def wanted to see that movie

[horseflesh]

It's a very low key, low budget Irish movie, so I doubt there will be a HD DVD release anytime soon.
By the time it comes around to a hi-def release Universal will be releasing on Blu-ray.

[Blazinhot]

yeah its low budget but damn it looks good i've been waiting to see a movie that hit me like snatch did and i hope this may at least come close but the problem is i wont even go and see it if universal is still exclusive to you know who so im just hoping things change sooner than later

[horseflesh]

Is it getting much of a release over there?
I don't think it's out here for a couple of months, I haven't seen any advertising/promotion for it.

I've seen the trailer at theatres literally playing before 98% of the movies I've seen since December. I don't watch live TV much so I have no idea what TV ads would be like

[Blazinhot]

it seems like the promotion is kicking up a little bit bc i've seen the tv spot a couple of times over the last 2 days mostly recorded shows from earlier in the week but the interest also seems to be growing on the web from what i've seen and its actually coming out this upcoming friday

In Bruges was terrific. Great cast, great script, beautiful scenery, great direction, excellent movie!!! I highly recommend this movie. I would say that if you liked No Country for old Men and Pulp Fiction, especially if you can imagine combining the two, then you will like In Bruges. This is a dialog driven dark comedy that is sometimes very violent.

Colin Farrell gave an Oscar performance. I have never seen Colin in this type of role. He was brilliant. Brendan Gleeson (from Harry Potter), Ralph Fiennes, and Clémence Poésy were perfectly cast in this movie and gave great performances as well. Ralph Fiennes in particular is great in every role he plays.

I hope In Bruges makes it to Blu-ray. It will be a definite addition to my library.

Bummer, it looks like In Bruges will be HD DVD because the studio is Focus Features. They also put out Atonement and Eastern Promises. Damn it.

I think you may be going a little overboard on this movie. I mean come on? Colin Farrell gives an Oscar worthy performance???!!!! Umm, yeah, I dunno about that. I will admit that Gleeson was quite good though.

It is a shame that you would let some asinine format war crap cause you to not support film makers and actors who have nothing to do with it.
Kind of pathetic actually...

[Amel]

watched the movie last night

INCREDIBLE!

my favorite this year so far

[OokieSpookie]

It was a great great movie

In Bruges is an absolute fantastic film! Had to watch it on an upscaled DVD, but I loved it. It's dark, sensitive and hilarious. Colin Farrell and Brendon Gleeson are a hoot. Can't wait for a BD release....

Might be better than the Dark Knight, IMHO.

Any news of a Blu-ray release for this one???
I really want to see this film.

It looks like there are French and Australian releases coming in January, but still no US release date.

Universal should release In Bruges in a "Sampler Pack" along with Lock, Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels and Smokin' Aces.
