Australia Daylight release 2/2/11?

JB HIFI online have this listed for preorder for 2/2/11. Has anyone seen this on the shelves yet?

Be great if it is not due out till April in the states.

I'm going to put it on a bit later, I'll let u know afterwards. I'm expecting it to look exactly the same as the hd-dvd version which I used to own.

Doesn't appear to be available in NZ yet. Can someone please confirm the audio specs on this release.

JB Hi Fi Australian website suggests that this comes with a Dolby Digital 2.0 soundtrack. I really hope that this is not the case and that movie comes with a decent lossless 5.1 soundtrack

Shouldn't be to much longer Gunner mate *fingers crossed* this film is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine. I used to have a couple of different releases on VHS, then a couple on DVD, and soon will have the BD.

One thing I always find funny about it, is
[Show spoiler]the actor who gets his back/neck broken in the film... its happened to his other characters a few times lol

Thanks for that.

Might wait a bit longer to see if an NZ release is imminent. If not then an import from Australia. $14.99 pricetag is fine.

How's the picture quality? Anyone?

I know the disc is devoid of extras. The US release has a stack of extras but apparently the PQ is rather shoddy.
