I plan to pre-order it, but I wasn't sure, does Zavvi charge your card immediately, or when it ships?

As of now, all of Disney's releases (except for Ratatouille 3D) are region-free. But that can always change.

I just said it was region B locked because Zavvi's product details say so, by perhaps they are wrong?

No 4K or 3D. Hmmmm. Waiting for further announcements. Too early I think.

3D version in Australia is on pre-order at 4K prices! ($45).

Still no 4K from Disney, but they are sticking with support for 3D BD format (hence the Star Wars Ep7 3D announcement).

Why won't Disney go UHD BD?

Because they don't sell. 3D sells 50% (or more) than UHD and Disney barely supports that! So they sure aren't going to start offering something that sells even less.

I don't think any from Disney released theatrically for first time after 2010 has been region locked (note theatrical release date, not BD date). Some older items were Locked, most of the 3D items (excluding Ratatouille) are region free including a few where the 2D remains locked (Up 3D, Bolt 3D, Nightmare Before Xmas 3D are region Free). Up (2009), Princess and the Frog (2009), Sorcerer's Apprentice (2010) I think is the most recent theatrical release I can find that had a locked 2D Bluray

I'm not sure if that applies to all of the items released outside of Disney/Pixar umbrella. I guess I would be shocked if Alice, BFG, Dory, Marvel etc aren't all region free

With The Jungle Book now confirmed region-free, I'm 99% certain Alice, Dory, etc. will be also. However, The BFG was released in the UK by EOne, not Disney; like Need for Speed, I suspect it will have a non-Disney, Region B-locked UK release (including 3D).

You can bet once UHD starts selling in significant quantities, Disney will support it.

Im pretty sure that they are going to release a 3D version later. Like Star Wars the force awakens -.- besides... You can see a 3D version when you search here at blu-Ray.com. Same with the jungle book.

mars5l · 09-13-2016, 02:35 AM

I pre-ordered one from amazon.jp, steelbook with a pillow. Sucks is it releases a few weeks after the rest

Mtnbiker2001 · 09-28-2016, 02:15 AM

For those bummed about the region lock on Alice and other titles too, keep in mind you can goto JVBDigital and get region free kits for just about any player out there. I put one of these kits on my Oppo 93 and it works great! When I started to see the trend of 3D releases showing up in other countries outside the US I looked into this option and now it has opened up a whole new avenue for 3D for me. The Oppo player had two different options for the region free kit too, one internal and one external, I opted for the external version. Anyway sorry if this is redundant info but thought I'd throw it out there anyway.

callahan09 · 09-28-2016, 03:17 AM

I need to remember to import this. Zavvi the best (only?) place for the steelbook?

Maybe I misinterpreted your previous post

Is there anything to suggest the ongoing assumption that this disc will be region free is incorrect?

Cool I was just going by Amazon UK, I just preordered it and it showed region B, perhaps it's region free though. Having that kit though makes it a non-issue if it is or isn't. I just have to make sure there's english on the movies from overseas when I get them lol. And i was just letting people know there are upgrades for their players to make them region-free, some might not know this.

The UK 3D version unboxing.

I assume this is a Mexican unboxing video of a different 3D version.

levcore · 10-04-2016, 08:42 PM

The UK 3D disc is labelled ABC so I guarantee it'll play in region A players. I am from the UK and have the disc.

If you are looking for a Region A version, this week the 3D version was released in Mexico. It costs around 25 USD. it comes with a slipcover and contains both BR 3D & BR.

What are the chances 3D gets a later US release ala the Jungle Book?

Who knows, unlike Jungle Book, Alice 2 did very poorly at the box office and Disney may not feel there is enough interest to bother with the 3D release. Disney is the worst studio for home 3D output, unless it's Marvel they don't seem to bother or re-release the 3D version several months later.

Can confirm UK release is Region FREE. Got my copy today in the US.

worldchmps · 10-17-2016, 07:59 AM

Want this but $22.99 is rediculous. If it had 3D it'd be a good price. This should be $20 or less. Think this will drop? I'd love it to be a BF deal! How much for the U.K. 3D combo?
