V for Vendetta Canadian Delay! - Blu-ray Forum

MrKenSebben · 05-14-2008, 08:15 PM

I was just searching through the Canadian sites for Future Shop, Best Buy and Amazon and found that V for Vendetta is not released here until May 27th! I'm getting fed up with Canadian releases, first no Orphanage now this! Looks like I will be ordering from Amazon.com, and hoping they deliver fast.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before, I did a search and nothing came up.

Blame Canada.

My deepest sympathy for you due to the tragic events of the day.

MrKenSebben · 05-14-2008, 08:39 PM

I've held off watching it since I heard it was coming to Blu, and now I have to wait another week! Give me one reason, just ONE logical reason for this absurdity!

I've always hated that shirt, but it's absolutely true.

I'll send you some theoretical dollars this afternoon.

I agree that life for everyone would be easier if release days and titles were the same. Especially in the same region.

Try to find Dogma in Canada...

At least V is coming!

Anyway, in the end I'll use Amazon.com to get the release that don't make it here...

V must have had visa issues... V for Visa!

I had to order Helvetica from amazon.com.
May have to for this to.
Did you see any prices for the May 27 release?

Jimbo976 · 05-15-2008, 04:24 PM

You seriously would buy Blu-ray movies in Canada? I think my collection of 110+ has about 4 or 5 bought in Canada - almost all the rest from amazon.com.

I find Canadian Blu Ray prices pretty reasonable and sometimes Future Shop have better prices then Amazon.com. Particularly on Fox titles, a lot of Fox blu's are cheaper in Canada.

On a few fox titles they are a few dollars cheaper yes. Almost everything else is a lot cheaper from Amazon. Most catalog titles are $19.99 there and $27 and up here. Most new releases are $27.95 or $23.95 from amazon but typically $33 and up here.

Yeah, anything other then fox you will be paying more, unless you find a 2 for $50 deal. Before getting a Blu Ray player I had never ordered from amazon, but some of the deals are impossible to turn down, $20 for blade runner compared to $38 at FS, you would have to be an idiot to pass that up.

Best Buy are listing it for $25.99 and Future Shop have it for $24.99 after $2.00 instant saving's which might be an online exclusive deal.

I was going to wait for the 27th, but now that amazon have Blade Runner for $19.99 again I might have to order both.
