The "what region code is it?" thread - Page 22 - Blu-ray Forum

Clark Kent · 04-16-2008, 12:08 AM

It is doubtful that the sequel which is a new release will be region free. I can't remember a new day and date BD from Buena Vista that is region free.

No Country for Old men was. NT 1 will most likely be region free but not 2.

Absolutely. I'm not at my home PC, so I can't remember the URL for it, but there's a site most of use to confirm whether a disc is safe to import or not.

Maybe someone else can help with that.

All right people! Who has information on regions of the following titles:

From Germany:
EMS' "Born to Fight"
Ufa's "Death Proof"
Cine Plus' "Hostage"
EMS' "Revenge of the Warrior"
EMS' "Running Scared"

Some of these come out on May 8th.

The EMS releases probably won't have English subtitles, at least their DVD releases were only German subbed & dubbed.

As for the region code, a EMS representative mentioned that they're aren't allowed to release region free discs:

I received an email from Amazon stating that 10000 bc Blu-ray can be pre-ordered, but in the product description, it says "zone A" only.
I'm French (zone B), Warner movies are usually zone free, any luck 10000 bc will be zone free?

sorry to insist, but is 1000 bc region locked?
I've never heard of a Warner release being region locked ...

WickyWoo · 04-24-2008, 02:53 PM

kpkelley · 05-02-2008, 09:15 PM

The only information I can find is that both are Region A discs according to this review at DVD Beaver:

New Format Reviews

None of the region code sites seem to have been updated for this title:
