Kill Bill 1 & 2 now delayed til 3rd Nov! :-( - Blu-ray Forum

pandys-box · 08-09-2008, 02:46 PM

It appears that both Kill Bill 1 and 2 Blu-Rays have now been pushed back to November 3rd according to Play.com. Bummer!

bajor27 · 08-09-2008, 02:52 PM

Part of me hopes this isn't true, part part of me likes to see a few less titles in September. Already had this pre-ordered. May make it part of a new order though to keep it from delaying all the other September goodness

gaeljet · 08-09-2008, 04:32 PM

there are always(at least for now) the uk releases

coolmilo · 08-09-2008, 04:34 PM

It would make more sense if the delay was Nov 4th because that's a Tuesday and we all know Tuesday's are when movies are released.

Regardless, I don't mind a delay. I just don't want to see Kill Bill cancelled.

lol so..? the majority of blu ray releases (both region a and b) are region free, and the audio or subtitles are no problem for us citizens like many on the forum..

Lucy Diamond · 08-09-2008, 06:38 PM

I'm comfortable with this delay.

I like the releases spread out.

look at it this way...we'll have everything by christmas!!!

Maybe it's just your pigeon English, but from your post I got: Oh, If this is delayed, there's still the UK version. To which I have replied: This IS the UK version that's been delayed. Ya dig?

Novembers release schedule might be more ram packed than Septembers lol.

gaeljet · 08-09-2008, 10:12 PM

oh, i would have thought it was the us ones since generally people rather and talk about them.. so isn t even be released on better? i mean the us releases are to ba released on 9th september..

Sky_Captain · 08-10-2008, 12:26 AM

US discs still on track for 9th Sept, mate.

Kirsty_Mc · 08-10-2008, 03:08 AM

I have them on order from amazon.co.uk... so far no e-mail. They are still listed as 15th. September.

I would not be surprised though... these titles have been bumped more times than a dodgem car.

no they are not - new releases of any media (cinema excluded) are usually mondays

Kirsty_Mc · 08-17-2008, 04:50 PM

I got an e-mail today.... Bumped Again!!!

If the come out in the US before the new date, then I'll cancel and order in from amazon.com.

blufreak · 08-17-2008, 05:15 PM

I just checked out Amazon and it still says sep. 9 so I'm going with them also an Amazon exclusive there fully uncut it says there rated NC-17 sweeeeet

Old Bones · 08-17-2008, 05:25 PM

I'll still wait for the better Japanese cut of Vol. 1 , my Japanese DVD still looks good enough to allow me to wait

Wow I just noticed the NC-17 Amazon exclusive, that is sweeeeeet

2099net · 08-18-2008, 05:04 PM

Any reason why Play is charging aprox £10 more for the two movie boxset over buying them both individually off the site?

Does the boxset have more content? Even if you add up the RRP for the two films (£22.99) it comes to less than the RRP for the boxset (£54.99)

Kirsty_Mc · 08-30-2008, 02:03 PM

I've just re-checked at amazon.co.uk the delivery dates for these titles.

Kill Bill Vol. 1: Delivery estimate: 4 Nov 2008 - 5 Nov 2008.
Kill Bill Vol. 2: Delivery estimate: 16 Sep 2008 - 18 Sep 2008.

Given that KBV1 is the more violent title in my opinion and that the US releases have not been delayed, I'm beginning to get suspicious that the BBFC have been up to their tricks again and that KBV1 has been cut. I have no evidence for this, just a nasty feeling going back to the days of LD. One title only being delayed looks very suspicious indeed.

Does anyone know if this is the case? (Insiders maybe!). Given my niggling doubts I may just cancel these and buy in from the USA.
