Great movie, I wish that was a North America release

jtwise · 01-06-2009, 12:08 AM

if star wars gets an overseas release before usa, i will be mad

BLu-Balls · 01-06-2009, 12:10 AM

Distribution rights unfortunately.

North American consumers just have to put the pressure on the studios here I guess.

The deal, is that there is a whole wide world outside of your window, that doesn't involve the good 'ole US of A. And thank God for the option.

Maybe to the blind. Zatoichi got over a 3 on this site, that's a hoot as well. It's one of the flatest, blandest looking HD transfers I've ever seen. Don't even get me started on the Truman Show review.

I too get bummed when a movie is released on blu overseas or in Canada and not in the U.S. Guess all we can do is wait....and hope

Do you people not realize that the US gets releases other countries don't!? You are taking those for granted.

I think that if a movie is made in the U.S. that it should be released here. I can understand releasing them in other countries, but they should release it in the country it was made in. I don't think that is taking anything for granted .02

I don't know if I would totally believe that site. None of the other dk sites have it up for order.

Do you not understand the concept that a certain studio may only have the rights to overseas distribution?

Sweeney Todd is the perfect example. Warner has the rights to release the movie on any home video format abroad. DreamWorks is the studio that has the rights to release it domestically. So even if Warner wanted to release the movie on Blu-ray here in the US they couldn't. This is also why some Blu-ray imports have different transfers then the one's released here. Different studios do things differently.

So then you DO agree with what the OP was saying and you don't understand what the deal was with this crap? Even after my exhaustive explanation? Ok....

Beating a dead horse... bringing up/asking something that has been discussed a thousand times before

You win, I'm done.
