Just buy it; beats your antique DVD.

Too many flicks no time for extras.

Extras are good, Movie is just as good as always. but now I prefer the extended version.

I'm glad this one PQ wise suffered less than than the other JC releases.

Does anyone know if there are any on screen forced subs for this?

It is not getting a release in the UK, and I'm looking to import a copy, seems the cheapest is from amazon ES release when it comes out later in the month.

Just wondering, if it will be the same disc compared with the US one. It says it has English audio and subs, so assuming it will be fine from that point, but can't recall if there are any scenes when there are forced subs or anything that is burnt into the image, that I would need in English, that might come in spanish for this release?

Can anyone help me please?

Thanks!

How about with the starting scene? On the Russian tanker, are they speaking Russian? Will I need to switch anything on in terms of subs or is the whole English audio track completely in English?

I'm still expecting major stock issues with the European releases. The US still doesn't have units available (at least Amazon.com doesn't) so I can't see there not being issues for other regions.

Maybe they'll learn from the US situation...

You mean the other regions that use their own separate replication plants and didn't have issues with other 'sold out' US titles (like Oppenheimer) either? I expect to receive my Italian version bang on time.

I guess we will see, however I wasn’t aware they use different replication plants. I might go Italian as well.

Amazon.ca has had this in stock for some time now (with bilingual cover, of course).

If you fancy saving a few bob, I did the ol' switcheroo from amazonIT to amazonES for the 26 euro price tag (vs Italy's 30).

Most of the US distributors (some have switched to Germany) use a plant in Mexico, which is I think the only one left in North America. In Europe we still have a couple, there's one in Germany and I think the folks that own the Mexico plant have one in Poland.

I did think about using that €10 off voucher at Amazon.es but as I ordered the Italian version with some other stuff to save on postage then I might as well keep it there, I bought some other stuff with the .es voucher instead.

Pretty sure they won't ship to anywhere but Canada since the pandemic. Prolly the reason why they've had stock in for a while...

Was just responding to the other poster indicating that there would be issues for other regions. Seemingly no issues for Canada. I wasn't talking about one region feeding the others. That said, I picked up a US copy to avoid the bilingual cover...
