Was hoping Universal would do this in the run-up to the sequel. Definitely buying this, I love this film.

Rob89 · 07-21-2011, 02:52 AM

YAY!!! ... i went to the cinema to see this film, loved it so much, i got it on DVD soon as it came out, and will now get it on Blu along with the sequel

Kill it with fire.

DaveSimonH · 07-21-2011, 01:12 PM

Have to side with Sky_Captain on this one, I'm pretty easy to please with films but this one fell far short.

Vashetti · 07-21-2011, 01:25 PM

Love this film.

The "hospital" scene is hilarious.

The Apocalypse · 07-21-2011, 01:34 PM

Yes. Been waiting for this, and still need to get the Mr. Bean films on Blu.

prankz · 07-21-2011, 09:53 PM

Might as well wait for the double pack. Unless it has a slip or Steelbook

AYColumbia · 07-22-2011, 03:12 AM

I have to say, I find Mr. Bean extremely annoying, however, this movie is one of my favorites and Atkinson was likeable. It just tickles my funny bone.

I'm jealous you Brits get this first. I'll have to wait a bit longer for it here in the States.

Wouldn't it be nice if they included all these advertisements, the inspiration for Johnny English. I really got a kick out of these when I was younger, very funny.

AYColumbia · 07-31-2011, 08:48 PM

Did you know there's a new movie coming? I didn't until a few minutes ago. I just happened to go into VUDU to see what new trailers are available and what do you know? Only said "Coming Soon" so no release date yet. I hope it's good.

snooloui · 07-31-2011, 11:33 PM

Release date is October 28th, which is probably why the blu-ray is coming out around the same time. I'm glad it's coming to blu-ray. I hope the sequel is decent, don't hold much hope though, I don't see where they can really go. At least Ben Miller is in it again, he was great in the first one.

You're lucky, my local cinema's plastered with posters and stupid window stickers of the f**king thing.

I'm a Yank and I'm pretty sure my next purchase from Amazon.co.uk is going to be both of the Bean films (although they were slightly bad and then considerably bad... and both nowhere close to as good as the series) on Blu-ray, the collection of "The Man from UNCLE" films (5 out of all 8 of them) and Johnny English on Blu-ray. The only thing that might alter that order is whether or not Universal decides to keep this region locked or change their minds and make it Region Free.

I definitely remember liking this film... but that's probably only because I'm a spy film buff. I even liked Cats & Dogs 2... do with that information what you will.

Sky_Captain · 08-04-2011, 07:41 PM

Since when were they region locking it?

Albatross365 · 08-05-2011, 11:10 PM

Don't trust Johnny English with your fast car.

Rowan Atkinson managed to crash his McLaren F1

Car caught fire but he got away with only a shoulder injury

Yeah, saw that on the news yesterday

. It wasn't so long ago that he was on Top Gear and became the new number 1 in the reasonably price car!

I'm not sure, but I saw that the page for it here has it listed as Region B locked... but I'm guessing that's because it's not being released stateside and details have yet to be clarified. I'm just hoping it's going to be region-free... because it might not even get released on Blu-ray here.

Not the first time he has crashed this either, the first time was back in October '99 where he rear-ended a Rover Metro
