Smokin Aces UK Blu Ray Cancelled?

[BigNickUK]

Was anyone else keen on finally getting this HD-DVD port? Just had an email from amazon.co.uk saying pre-order for January 25th cancelled as supplier has discontinued it.

I had no idea a UK release had even been announced.

I don't know about this one. HMV has it up for pre-order for £13.99 with a release date of 26th April, whereas Play has it up for a release date of 1st March, though not on its own but in a double pack with the upcoming straight-to-disc sequel. Price on there is £23.99, which is quite pricey if you have no interest in the sequel and want just the first film.

If play have it for an earlier release it must be a Play.com Exclusive, hence the later release date on other sites.

I notice that's how it is with Play Exlusives, they release something, then everybody else gets it a month or two later.

Anyone know what cut of Smokin' Aces 2: Assassin's Ball the UK Blu-ray has? Rated, Unrated or both? Doesn't say anything on the front cover about cuts

[Sky_Captain]

Unrated 88 minute cut.
