Amazon Preorder is up for both. Fox is handling the release (UK release is being handled by Universal). No set date as of right now.

I might be in the minority when I say this but I actually REALLY enjoyed this one. So much so that I saw it twice during release week and I NEVER do that. My roommate, on the other hand, hated this. An apartment divided.

I'll be picking up the 3D pack for sure. Thanks for posting the art, OP!

You're not the only one. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie too, and will buy it day one.

Batmon77 · 01-07-2012, 06:44 PM

How is the 3D?

great news!

bleszinski · 01-08-2012, 09:34 PM

i hope we get a sooner release date.i heard that this movie is awesome and has a great action

MisterPilgrim · 01-08-2012, 09:40 PM

Enjoyed this in the theater, but I'll give it a rent to decide if I want to buy it or not.

Aloysious · 01-19-2012, 02:48 PM

Didn't bother seeing this at the cinema. I'm in the UK and refuse to see anything that's been butchered by the BBFC just so it receives a lower certificate (rating). Looking forward to this on 3d Blu-ray though, but have you seen how much Amazon are charging for this?! They must be joking. They could have at least incuded a DVD copy in the package as well at this price.

HD Goofnut · 01-19-2012, 02:50 PM

Will be renting this one. After so many disappointing swordplay/fantasy films in the last few years I am being cautious with this one.

Can't believe they are expecting people to pay $45 for this 3D movie. No frigin way! That's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay over priced.

It seems to me the prices are high on 3D because there is a rumor running around that 3D is dying and they are trying to cash in while they can. Well, it also seems to me that if the prices are too frigin high, then sales will be low and if sales are low, then naturally 3D will die because there's no frigin mula to invest in 3D technology to make it better. So why not lower the prices on 3D releases to sale more 3D movies to keep the technology alive so that we, the engineers have mula to invest in research in "holagrams"? After all, wouldn't that be the next logical evolution in 3D technology... Holagrams...

Do you hear me out there you high priced 3D blus busters. LOWER THE FRIGIN PRICES!

The $45 price will go down - it was originally $35.

MSRP on this is $49.99 (which isn't too uncommon). Expect 30% to be taken off on just about every release (so $35), and bigger titles will usually be discounted further for their first weeks (I'm guessing $24.99-29.99 on this one).

I do think the prices aren't helping the format (especially with so many poor conversions out there selling for this price).

This movie was bad ass and basically was made to set up an awesome sequel. I dont know what fantasy/swordplay (whatever that means) disappointments your talking about.

Looks like FutureShop is selling a steelbook of this one:

Too bad US audiences are getting the shaft once again!

I'd kinda like that SB but yup....We here in the US and SteelBook deprived, so we import!

Caesu · 02-02-2012, 07:22 PM

That FS SB is so expensive at its current price. I hope the UK SB which is identical isnt the BBFC cut version or else FS it is. The .UK SB costs a lot less.

toddly6666 · 02-17-2012, 07:42 PM

I picked up my Immortals Blu-ray today. I'll comment on the PQ/AQ later tonight.

Extras are:
- alternate beginning
- 2 alternate endings
- "It's No Myth"
- Caravaggio Meets Fight Club: Tarsem's Vision
- Deleted scenes
- Immortals: Gods & Heroes Graphic Novel

The movie's audio is 5.1 DTS-HD 5.1, with only English SDH and Spanish subs.

toddly6666 · 02-18-2012, 01:55 PM

Audio quality is reference quality 5/5.

Video quality is about 4.5/5. It was nice to be able to see what I was watching since the 3D presentation was like watching the film with sunglasses on. There are still many scenes where it seemed to dark or the contrast was off, but it's crisp, clear, sharp, and awesome looking during lighter scenes!
