Face/Off from the UK instead! - Page 3 - Blu-ray Forum

Play-asia.com has it in stock, here is the link:
http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-...n-70-1ui5.html

But it is around $50 shipped to the U.S. That's a bit much, unless you're in love with this movie.

I got my copy from japan. It is all region and plays just fine on my U.S. ps3.

Any "all region" blu-ray will play on a U.S. ps3.

hope that clarifies things.

If I may ask, how much did you pay for it with shipping included?

cueman98 · 09-02-2007, 02:18 AM

Sure.

$50.00 even.

I've got "air force one" coming from www.yesasia.com . That was a little cheaper at $46.74 with shipping.

So the u.k. version of "bruce almighty" is all region?

According to Amazon.co.uk it is region 2.

Yep. ABC. It plays just great.

Bring over some of your Blu-ray buds and throw popcorn and make cat calls at the Universal Earth opening logo!

SendIt.com tends to list everthing region 2 (and constantly warn you of this) as well. But, catalogue titles are going to generally be all region, as per BDA policy (and clearly, just common sense).

That's good to know. Thanks

It doesn't matter if the japanese versions are region free or not if your in the USA. They are the same region code.

We were talking about U.K. imports in the last few posts. Unfortunately by default they're not in the U.S. region.

So, with taking that into consideration there's a good chance that the 1986 Transformers Blu-Ray on Amazon.co.uk might be all region. HHHHMMMM.

pardon me while I go pre-order.

Ok, guys...I know all of you just want to help but...
Amazon region specs means nothing, zero, zip.

They are very often wrong, as are many retailers, so don't trust what ever they have written in the region specs.

There, I got it out of my system.

JTK · 09-02-2007, 07:03 PM

I'll try this again.

Here in the U.S., if I want to import BD's to play here on my PS3 (and any future equipment)...recommendations for who to buy from?
