Arthur And The Minimoys blu-ray?? - Blu-ray Forum

Xboxbydegrees · 05-06-2008, 03:33 PM

Play-Asia has this movie for $48 dollars. Is there a vendor that has a better price?

Any chance of it being released in the US on blu-ray?

Thanks for your help.

I think Weinstein handles the distribution in the US. It will take some time.

Yeah it's japanese so yesasia charges japanese stuffs a lot.
Would be better ordering from HMV or amazon. Order online from HMV 2 blu-ray you'll get 25% off, not sure bout shipping cost. But I'm getting it with pacifier soon.

edit : HMV.co.jp / amazon.co.jp

ps. hmv is way easier, amazon has mostly japanese even product title is japanese

I bought the French release, which is region free, and I don't remember it costing that much. I think I bought through amazon.fr. It has English and French soundtracks and subtitles that can be on or off. Quality was excellent. You can find my review at hometheatermag.com

fyi: i have posted a few 1080p pc screenshots from the french BD here:

PQ is really great, the film itself might not be for everyone though

Cool! It's ordered

HDJK · 05-07-2008, 08:08 AM

Since you have this, do you know if 'Renaissance' has an English track also? It's been released by Fox Pathé just like Arthur. Thanks.

Blaumann · 05-07-2008, 09:05 AM

I have the french "Renaissance" HD DVD and it only has french DTS-HD MA and not even french subs. (Subs are mentioned on the box, but you can't chose them on the disc. Might be an authoring error or they are simply missing.) I guess the BD is authored in the same way:

So sorry, no english track on the french version.

HDJK · 05-07-2008, 09:15 AM

^^ Too bad. Thanks for the info.

I knew I should have paid more attention in French class

Zyclone · 05-07-2008, 10:12 AM

the german hd dvd release of RENAISSANCE has english subs there is no german blu ray release of it yet though.

You're welcome. And they even lower their price for exports (FR tax gets subtracted

)
