Franklyn (UK) June 22nd - Blu-ray Forum

md99 · 04-30-2009, 07:01 AM

E1 Entertainment have announced the UK DVD and Blu-ray Disc release of Franklyn on 22nd June 2009. In his debut feature-length film writer-director Gerald McMorrow depicts a tale of four souls whose lives span two parallel worlds and are intertwined by fate, romance and tragedy.

Priced at £15.99 RRP on DVD and £19.99 RRP on Blu-ray Disc, features are TBC.

Fantastic film which should look amazing on Blu. Thoroughly recommend it.

Such a shame this film isn't getting the coverage and recognition it deserves.

UK and German artwork released...

My UK disk turned up today. Haven't had a chance to look at it, but have opened it up via BDInfo and its a BD25 disk with an AVC encode and TrueHD soundtrack.

Don't forget to post some comments on this release.

I must confess I was totally unaware of this film, but it looks pretty cool.

Mine was dispatched today. Probably won't get it till Monday.

I really, really hope the transfer will at least approach reference quality

Any word on region locking (or not) at all?

md99 · 06-22-2009, 07:07 PM

Couple of reviews are beginning to appear...

No confirmation if it's region locked or not although dvd times claim it is 'encoded for region B'. Same thing or not?

Really can't wait to get my hands on this. My favourite movie of the year so far.

I'm curious on this as well.

As stated in the specs of my DVDTherapy review, this disc is Region Locked B.

I tested it in my Region A PS3 and LG BH200 on Region A and C.

Best,

I have a feeling we're not getting this in the U.S. for a long time, if at all.

md99 · 06-24-2009, 08:01 PM

Can we expect a front page review any time soon?

Xboxbydegrees · 06-29-2009, 03:49 PM

This just came up on Amazon UK as a recommended title. The trailer looks really good.

How is the pq? is this worth importing?

Any chance the German release will be region free?
