Any word of forced subs?

Great news, best Verhoeven movie, never thought about getting this flick on BR. DAY ONE

I believe there's also a German deluxe Koch mediabook (think Inferno) release on the horizon. Hope to see how they compare.

Another seriously awesome news for Verhoeven's fans : France should get "Turkish Delight" and Verhoeven's first long feature film "Diary of a Hooker" on BD fairly soon!

Fantastic news!!!! I just hope the subs are not forced!

I bought a box set of 6 (or 5, can't remember) dutch films by verhoeven, released in france by Metropolitan... hope to see them in blu-ray soon

finger crossed on this one not having forced subtitles, I do not buy films if they do, I hate them.

Amazon.fr lists Filmedia as the distributor, and it seems they usually put optional French subtitles on their discs. However, they've not got that good a track record, as far as I can see, with a terrible release of Polanski's Repulsion, as well as 1080/50i releases of Cannibal Holocaust, The Big Trail and Cronenberg's Dead Ringers. Guess I'll wait for reviews before buying.
