I've always wanted a definitive answer as to why Warner constantly ignore the UK for catalog titles.

Also... why do they delete their UK releases so quickly?. Marathon Man, 2010 & THX 1138 are all examples of films that were only available in the UK for a short time, but the same titles are always available to buy in other territories.

Marathon Man is Paramount, but they are equally as bad for deleting titles as are Sony. Basically aside from Dog Day Afternoon, before this release we had 0 (The Spielberg titles were available in the set last year) catalogue titles released or scheduled from the majors this year. Luckily we have so many great independent label who have taken over. Just wish Warners or Sony would license out, would make sense if they aren't releasing themselves, they'd still make money without risking it themselves.

You're right, it was Paramount.

Because Warner released Marathon Man in the US, I assumed the UK release was also theirs, as most of the Warner releases are worldwide.

Why does Amazon list it as 5-disc edition? Shouldn't it be 6-disc one?

I'm guessing it's just a mistake as the cover lists all 5 films and both versions of The Exorcist. So it must be 6 discs I presume. Looking forward to getting this, as I was always meaning to import 2 and 3 separately. After flogging my original copy of The Exorcist, it should work out about the same price as importing those 2 but with 2 extra films included. Yes, I actually like The Exorcist II .

Not at fan or The Heretic or Dominion, so I imported III and The Beginning earlier in the year. Good to see Warners actually trying again!

I can tolerate Exorcist II but the transfer is the worst out of the bunch. Still a nice anthology set and I think I bought it for 20 $ from the States before release.
