Almost Famous (Extended Cut) BD is listed on Amazon.co.uk as coming out on February 11th!
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Almost-Famou...=1FR60C1SBINWQ

Since these are distributed by internationally Warner Bros., they should not be Region coded! So i'm definitely importing these! In the U.S. these are distributed by Paramount/Dreamworks, so they'll be HD-DUD exclusive until further notice.

By the way: the same for the Sweeney Todd BD, which is also listed on Amazon.co.uk as coming out on May 19th!

Pssst... Almost famous isn't distributed by Warner at all. It's distributed by Sony (internationally).

Zodiac dir. cut should be released in the Netherlands around may. It seems various releases over here will only be treated on blu. In the latest press release various titles are only promoted for DVD and Blu Ray!

Oops. My mistake.

The_End_88 · 02-05-2008, 06:13 PM

Hell Yeah! I've been waiting and waiting for Zodiac (even more so the newly released Director's cut) to be released on blu-ray! Can't wait. I hear it's amazing.

coopBluRay · 02-05-2008, 06:21 PM

Even though Almost Famous is a Sony title internationally, Amazon lists it as an "all region" release!

Bullseye · 02-05-2008, 06:26 PM

Ordered along with Sweeney Todd.

The_End_88 · 02-05-2008, 07:06 PM

I've never ordered out of country. Is there anything special I have to do? Just simply pre-order it correct?

Me, too.....

Will Sweeney Todd, Almost Famous and Zodiac play on a PS3?

Will Amazon subtract the UK VAT for international customers?

coopBluRay · 02-05-2008, 08:04 PM

They should play just fine on the PS3. Warner Bros. does not Region code their Blu-Rays and Amazon says that Almost Famous plays in all regions.

richieb1971 · 02-05-2008, 09:52 PM

When I was in the USA I bought from UK (I am English) and all VAT was taken off.

Yes, they do, I have ordered several blu-ray discs from the U.K. and can confirm they don't charge VAT to U.S. customers.

Bullseye · 02-05-2008, 10:44 PM

They subtract if your outside the EU. They charge me VAT and I am in Ireland.

davidPS3 · 02-05-2008, 10:48 PM

I am waiting for these to come out here in the US. It is only a matter of time. Besides, I am still buying blu every week and it's kind of nice to have a bit of a slow down.
