Battle Royale USA release on Blu please!

Would buy this in a heartbeat! My only request would be to include both the directors cut and the theatrical version (which I prefere) to make everybody happy.
Would make an awesome Criterion release. hint, hint.

[The Theory]

oh man, I'd do unholy things for a Criterion release of this. But it doesn't really strike me as a title that would be something they'd consider. But in my fantasy land of "wouldn't it be great?", yeah, this title as a Criterion would rank up there.

Arrow UK is releasing this title on BD. All of their releases have been region free. So import away.

Ya but all the Arrow releases Coming up (Argento titles) are region free. Can't see them changing regions for one BD.

i dunno

bill hunt or jeff cant remember has said in the uk forum that its 99% that this will be locked

i should really have a little faith

but at the same time japan are getting all the argento titles around the same time ,, so region is not an issue

Don't count on a US release ever happening. There's a lot of politics around it

It's not out or announced in Japan, if it's not region locked it will be recalled and locked as soon as Toei finds out it's not

heres a perfect reason for everyone to go region free

but seriously isnt it because the rights are stuck in limbo and the asking price is waaaaay to high ?
