BARTON FINK is a must-have for me so I will double dip if necessary with the other titles.

No No Country for Old Men, no thanks. Will buy Barton Fink separately though.

No Country for Old Men is distributed by Paramount, so can not be in this box set by Universal.

£19.98 http://www.sendit.com/blu-ray/the-co.../10549758.html

£22.47 http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B005OW7U7U

Seems damn cheap!

Only thing I'd like out of there is Barton Fink which is due out in Germany https://forum.blu-ray.com/germany/18...k-dec-1st.html

[skiplittle]

does the trend of fink releasing first in britain as a single and boxset disc, and now in germany, necessarily indicate that the movie is going to see a general multi-national release? including europe and the united states?

or is this more indicative of the film just coming out in a few specific european markets, where the film was more appreciated?

or does this indicate neither. i look forward to this disc more than anything else. followed by the man who wasn't there.

Barton Fink wonn't have a single release in the UK from what I can gather. I am anticipating a Central European release though from Universal because it looks like all the old home video rights have reverted to Universal Pictures.

Northern Europe though is a different matter as Noble have control there where it's available now http://nobleentertainment.com/movie/Barton_Fink

Is less than €12 at Amazon http://www.amazon.de/dp/B005RALUAW so I'll go with that version no doubt. There was some messing about with Blood Simple in the UK where it only ever got a decent release in boxsets and never appeared singly in a restored version.

I think the UK boxset will drop in price quickly enough so if you can find a place for the others that's a good option. I already have them and Burn After Reading is shit.

Already a wonderful Blu-ray of that http://www.dvdtherapy.com/review_info.php?id=2012

You'll need a Blu-ray player or PC (or rip the disc) to remove the forced subtitles however.

Very nice price. If it's that cheap on release then hopefully it will dip to £15 or below sometime in the new year. That way I can justify buying it solely for Barton Fink (and get rid of the single releases I already own of the other 4).

It's unlikely but I'd love it if they were in single cases. I'm not so anal about it that it would stop me buying the set but where I have collections by specific directors I like having them ordered chronologically on the shelf.

Watched Intolerable Cruelty today. I really wanted to love it but was left with a neutral feeling. It's not a BAD film in any way but I just didn't enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed other Coen films.

[Mithrandir-Grey]

finally ordered this today. 13.45 from zavvi

[The Driver]

Amazon now have this for the oddly priced £15.19 http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B005OW7U7U matching Play http://www.play.com/DVD/Blu-ray/4-/2...t/Product.html

All the 10% off coupons for Zavvi/TheHut seemed to have dried up but they still have it for £14.95 http://www.thehut.com/blu-ray/the-co.../10549758.html
