February 12, 2007

* Ghandi
* Legends of the Fall

* Sense and Sensibility

February 26, 2007

* The Crow
* Donnie Brasco
* FIFA World Cup: All the Goals of Germany 2006
* Gattaca

I thought that "Spy Game" was a Universal Picture.

I'll pick up FIFA and the Crow ! But 18 pounds is alot of for a blu-ray . Thats about $35.

Day-um!

I'd LOVE to have the Crow in HD...

They release ALL of New Line's titles, and some of Universal's titles.

But I don't remember them actually announcing any support for any of the formats. Anyway, if they do release BDs; I hope they are region-free.

This is due to european market there are some exclusive distributors who can release some of Universal titles in blu-ray like one mentioned here.
Plus lionsgate movies can be found on HD-DVD like Total Recall which is released on Blu-Ray in North America.

I hate this exclusivity distribution because i live in middle-east Region B like European region.Hopefully region coded will not be applied so i can still import my titles from US.But i already know some are region coded others are not.
Recently i read an article that most backup catalog titles will be region free except for the new ones.

So i'm a Blu-ray Support.

Good news! "The Crow" is an absolute favorite of mine. I own the 2 Disc Collectors' Series DVD set from Miramax and this has absolutely stunning image quality for a stan def release. I am sure, though, that blu-ray will still offer visible improvement of this extremely dark movie.

Hope the European release will be region-free but I doubt it as it is Disney and I think they are strong supporters of region coding.

If it's through Disney then we have nothing to worry about. A big title like that will make its way overseas in due time. Us cheapskates will just have to be a little patient.

I bought both Hostel and Emily Rose from Amazon U.K...signed up for an Amazon CC...which took 30.00 off the total.
If these are not available for pre-order from Amazon U.K....they will be soon.

[GTP]

I see Amazon UK has Gangs of New York up already for pre order on BD.

I'd definitely get the crow end extended Underworld. Hopefully those aren't region encoded.

That's my concern in addition to this: Aren't these titles going to show up here in the States before long anyways?

A little patience could save me a lot of money in the long run.

[dobyblue]

Goals of the World Cup is listed as region free.

[phloyd]

Underworld and Gattaca will prolly be region free.

The Crow is an unknown really for region.

I would also be a little curious as to whether these smaller distributors have the money to 'do it right' for HD...

[Josh]

Amazon doesn't have The Crow for preorder. Interesting.

[phloyd]

I think I would tend to wait for BVHE to release it since their releases have been top notch.

Still, I might cave and get the UK one for kicks
