Zulu Has Arrived ! - Blu-ray Forum

Hey, just letting everyone know that Zulu from the UK works on North American PS3's. I have yet to watch the whole thing, but the PQ is simply stunning compared to the DVD release. All fans of this movie should not hesitate to pick it up.

I have a BD-S300. It is a Sony product. I wonder if it would be compatible? My Dad and I love these kinds of movies.

PowellPressburger · 11-05-2008, 05:01 PM

Does it contain extras if so do they play fine on your PS3 also?

I will probably order this one then.

The Music of Zulu

Theatrical Trailer

Teaser Trailer

NICE Info!!!! This is great news. I am in the US and have a PS3 and was wanting to order but but wanted to make sure it would play.

:-)

You should let them know on the Europe Blog for the film also.

This new blu-ray (w/ red cover) is supposed to be 2 discs... is it?

scrapser · 11-05-2008, 06:46 PM

I have a Panasonic BD-30 player. I wonder if the special features will play or not. Is there something special about Sony players that allow them to handle multiple formats?

On the corner of the box cover in the photo it says, "New 2 Disc Special Edition".

Hmmm I wonder why I would have asked such a question... The standard DVD has this sticker too, so they may have just used the same image somehow for both covers.

PowellPressburger · 11-05-2008, 08:53 PM

KYOT can you confirm if the cover art states 2 Disc or if it doesn't say so at all on teh cover art. It may have been an error on teh early artwork for retailers etc?

amazon's desc. can be off.. usually are.

It does not say 2 discs anywhere, it is 1 disc. The special features is standard definition, there would be no need for two discs so yeah most likely just an early artwork release that was incorrect for the Blu, because only the DVD is two discs.
