You have a point. Better to be cautious and only order after having 100% confirmation.

According to the Amazon listing, it's 227 minutes, the extended version. Seamless branching would be nice.

Yes, but Warner is not too big on seamless branching (see Amadeus etc).

Yes, for those with region locked players.

Well, options are always good. But, yes, not Warner's forte. And Dances With Wolves is one of my favorites, so I bought the excellent Kinowelt German (Region B) release some time which is the 227 minute Director's Cut, which I prefer.

This is great news. Hopefully this means that a U.S. version is in the works to be released soon.

That was why I asked to start with and why I really didn't want to order until we had the actual release information.

Why don't you make it easier for yourself and just but a Region B Blu-ray player. Then you'd have one for Region A titles and one for Region B titles. I did this, and it's one of the smartest things I've ever done. I don't have to worry about that region locking nonsense anymore.

My Blu-ray player is a highly modified and expensive Denon 3800 BDCI. Additionally, with all of the components, players, etc. I am running out of space, shelves, and hook ups when I include such things as my Turntable, AM/FM tuner, etc.

Back to topic,

As I said, I'm 99% certain that Dances with Wolves UK will be region free and that all extras will be 60Hz-friendly.

AnimeOnBlu · 07-07-2009, 07:00 PM

Price has dropped to £9.69.

It would be nice if this were region free vs Kinowelt's German release. I have to admit, the 7.1 DTS HD MA track is very good and the picture is also very good. Doesn't appear DNR was used and I'd recommend it if you can't wait for the UK version to be released and have a region B capable player.

I would only get this if it was the 4 hour extended edition of the movie. I've seen the extended cut of this movie at least twice already on DVD, and it's one of the best 4 hours I ever spent watching a movie. It is truly magnificent.
