Buy the CA Blade Collection or wait for a U.S. release? - Blu-ray Forum

Buy the Canada Blade Blu Ray Collection or wait for a U.S. release? What do you think? Will it eventually be released in the U.S.? And will they be better quality discs or the same?

The Canadian Alliance releases are in the wrong aspect ratio!

Wait

DetroitSportsFan · 10-26-2009, 02:21 PM

Agreed, just wait for the U.S. release.

Actually, only the first one is in the wrong aspect ratio. Blade 2 and 3 are done right. The only downside is that all three has no bonuses and 3 isn't the director's cut.

I bought 2 but am waiting for the proper release of 1 and 3.

I wasn't terribly impressed with them so I would say wait as well. It's pretty cheap if you absolutely need it right away but otherwise I can't see it being too much longer before these films are given the proper treatment.

maybe you should go with the european version.
i have the dutch one and it does have the correct aspect ratio.

I say wait.

No bonus features? That's very frustrating.

It's borderline bait and switch. You assume you're getting at least what was offered on DVD when you buy Blu. Damn. I guess I'll wait - the price is really good though...

1 year and 7 months and still nothing.

I have the Dutch versions of both Blade and Blade 2. Highly recommended...
