It's Disney in the US, and a new release so it'll be locked

I'm getting the impression that the studios are pulling region codes off the jackets to keep importers guessing to cut down on the volume. They seem to be happening across the board

On Ebay in Australia, on of the sellers has The Mummy for sale (pre-order) and is advertising it as region free. Known to be a reliable seller can't remember his login, sorry dude.hope this helps Iam in same boat.

Yeah but is it not the law to have all information regarding regional coding, classification etc on packaging?

Not necessarily.. look at National Treasure 2 and a few other Disney new releases that have been region coding free.

The back cover indicates nothing...

so like Paramount who don't indicate, they must be region free...

scott87 · 07-09-2008, 10:36 AM

i would of thought they would be region free considering the hd-dvds where, but i guess its better to wait and see, but as said before there is no indication on the packages what it is

Who is doing that an on what discs have it been done to??

actionman · 07-10-2008, 10:03 AM

Hi,
I have checked on DVDWorldUSA.com and they have now updated their site to say that The Mummy, The Mummy Returns and the Scorpion King are all Multi regional ( yesterday these were marked as Region A on their site).

Looks like Universal might keep to having no regional coding after all.

paul0908 · 07-10-2008, 12:05 PM

got my copy of mummy and mummy returns today (usa copys), both play on my japanese ps3 and uk blu-ray player
