Watchmen Director's Cut? - Blu-ray Forum

qwertyboy77 · 06-16-2009, 02:05 PM

Does anyone know if Australia will be getting the directors cut version of watchmen or just the theatrical release.

LordCrumb · 06-16-2009, 08:02 PM

I hope its the directors cut, i hate double-dipping!

qwertyboy77 · 06-20-2009, 03:03 PM

After further research it looks like the Directors Cut will only be available in America, so all we will get is the theatrical cut special edition.

Mobe1969 · 06-20-2009, 10:58 PM

I frigging hope the US version isn't locked then.

LordCrumb · 06-21-2009, 12:49 AM

oh well, import it is then.

Well, I wont consider buying or renting untill the directors cut is released. Good way to screw the customer out of a product (and ther company out of money).

Completely agree.

You would think Paramount being the better giving better Blu-ray releases then Warner Bros. they would atleast match what WB is offering?

Paganmoon · 06-22-2009, 07:20 AM

their deal to distribute it outside of the US probobly didn't include the DC. So we might get it in the future if WB get distribution rights back for the rest of the world and releases it themselves.

Well unless the US is region free i'll just have to wait it out then.

Situations like these are just adverts for piracy! I would still prefer to import the DC because of the features (and I am eager to see this new commentary), but although it is unlikely, should it end up being region locked, its MKV all the way for me!
I WILL NOT BE BUYING A THEATRICAL-ONLY EDITION!!!

Warner brothers aren't usually region locked from memory, I hope this and Coraline aren't region locked.

DetroitSportsFan · 07-03-2009, 01:54 PM

Chances are the U.S. version will be region free. We should be finding out very soon when the reviews come.

sirhc55 · 07-05-2009, 07:53 AM

As I have a region unlocked blu-ray player I have placed an order with Amazon for both Watchmen and Flight 666 - looking forward to watching both

WESTHAMUTD1 · 07-05-2009, 08:40 AM

Watchmen directors cut blu ray has been confirmed region free,as are all warner bros blu rays!dvdworldusa also have it in stock and ready to dispatch!

fuddwupper · 07-06-2009, 04:30 AM

that really sucks, i guess ill just wait until the eventual directors cut release, not paying for the same thing twice

Daredevil666 · 07-06-2009, 06:42 AM

Just ordered from dvdworldusa, can't wait !

jobrro · 07-13-2009, 11:21 AM

Pre-ordered this from Amazon US when they had it for $21.50US. Looking forward to it. My first Blu from Amazon US

will be interesting to see the delivery time difference VS. the UK.

LordCrumb · 08-06-2009, 04:49 AM
