Dutch Blu-ray release list

The Netherlands is very English orientated (just like the Scandinavian countries and Finland). Normally we watch movies in its original language. So no dub, but subtitles.

Further specs to be revealed. But most likely it does have the same specs worldwide as it is a Buena Vista/Disney release. So I EXPECT it has PCM English and English subtitles in this case.

I wouldn't pre-order them yet, because I think it will be released around the same time in the USA. If you really want to pre-order them, you could use these shops:

DVDoutlet.nl
Bol.com
Freerecordshop.nl
Vanleest.nl

Thanks ... I'll take at look. More places to buy blu-ray movies.

[Quint van der Vaart]

I got some new dates for your list Timmie :

January 22 2008 :

Rescue Dawn
1408
The Messengers
Home Of The Brave
Jet Li´s Hero
The Good Shepherd
Tristan & Isolde

All will be released on blu ray and HD DVD.
1080P and DTS MA sound.

[*TIMMIE*]

Thanks! I just read it at dvd-home.nl.

Be carefull though. It are Dutch Filmworks versions. Not all titles will have the good aspect ratio. for example 16 blocks and underworld, which were recently released, were not 2.35:1, but cropped to 1.78:1. And not all were 24fps. Reservoir dogs did seem to have a great PQ (1080p 24) and AQ, and the same extras as the DVD.

Those titles will probably have DTS HD ma. But... 1408 for me if it has the Director's cut (which is doubtfull considering DFW). Maybe Hero (if it has a good transfer and director's cut).

These titles will not have English subtitles!

[Quint van der Vaart]

These are all recent editions and Dutch Filmworks has respected the original ratio on dvd lately.

1408 will be the Director's Cut and Hero just the theatrical release.
I hope that they have read the comments on their first batch and done something with it.

I will get them all exept The Good Shepherd which I find boring.

[msetten]

Don't know if everything in this list is correct, as it mentiones that Pirates of the Caribbean 3 is released in on 19 December, but it is already in the stores for some days now. I bought my copy on 26 November. (I live in the Netherlands)

Hi, does any of this stores have english language available ?
thanks

[Dreedree]

Thnx 4 the update, TIMMIE

[Shapiro]

Hey, I'm looking for Fracture on blu-ray but I can't find it, anyone knows anything about it?

[*TIMMIE*]

I believe it is a DFW title in the Netherlands. They are releasing BR, but this has not been released nor planned.

I believe it will be released in France and/or Germany (Concorde?!). The titles are translated over there.

[DigitalfreakNYC]

Timmie,

Any new updates coming?

[Socko]

Thanks, I will keep an eye on this thread

[Dreedree]

Hey there,

Timmie, thanks for the update.

I read at http://www.dvd-home.nl/pers/univers.htm
