Fanboys: June 2nd, 2009 ( Alliance ) - Blu-ray Forum

Exist2Inspire · 05-15-2009, 02:49 AM

So, I was looking at Amazon.ca to see when the DVD would come out, and I happened to come across this:

http://www.amazon.ca/Fanboys-Blu-ray...2355488&sr=8-1

List Price: $33.99
Amazon Pre-Order: $22.95

Release Date: June 2, 2009
Studio: Alliance ( Universal )

And I came across the cover art for the disc at HDD today:

So, we know Alliance is releasing the film, and with it being brand-spanking new, here's hoping we get a 1080p transfer in the OAR of 1.85:1 ( heck, if they open it up to 1.78:1 I'll be a little disappointed, but it's not that big of a loss ). Though, at least it will have a DTS-HD MA 5.1 soundtrack as all Alliance titles do.

I'll just be happy to see it in blu in some form, to be frank.

Exist2Inspire · 05-15-2009, 03:25 AM

Just Imagine... Kristen Bell in the Leia Slave Outfit in 1080p? *drool*

If it gets the extras from the US DVD, I'll import.

If it doesn't, I'll just buy the DVD. Not worth my time to import an inferior version.

Since when is high definition inferior to dvd?

Exist2Inspire · 05-15-2009, 05:19 AM

And it is Alliance, so there is a very HIGH probabilty that there will be zero extra's

When it comes to extras, it's gotta have all of them or it's inferior to me.

Wow! Didnt think this would be released anywhere. Add another title to June 2nd's already expensive list

Blu-Benny · 05-15-2009, 02:54 PM

this may be my 1st import, this movie looked hilarious!!! +, i'm a huge star wars fan!!

Rhylliam · 05-15-2009, 07:23 PM

That cover originated from inetvideo.com, and I posted it on DVDaficionado.com yesterday. This disc should have all of the US DVD extras, only the Alliance exclusive catalogue titles are without extras. The only case where a new Alliance Blu omitted an extra was for The Wrestler, where it excluded the 42-minute documentary for whatever reason. So I really hope this disc doesn't screw people over extras-wise...

is there anything important to know about importing a movie???? or is it easier for someone to buy it and buy it off them???

Nothing hard about importing at all, especially if you have an Amazon account (it uses the same one as your USA account if you have one). Just order it up, and wait for it to come.

It was great, I loved watching this movie especially seeing Dee Williams and Carrie Fisher was priceless

Kynch · 06-03-2009, 09:59 PM

Ordered.

Now. To get a region free Blu-ray player. ^^

mredman · 06-04-2009, 03:32 AM

It was funny.but the ending is kind of a downer. And is out of place in such a hillarious movie.

Expected more from it after seeing the trailer

greglausanne · 06-18-2009, 01:35 PM
