Note: Man on Wire UK is not region-B. It is playable on US players except for most of the extras which are PAL SD. I have it and the film plays fine on my US PS3.

UK Date, same for Slumdog, this should come out on April in the US and March for Slumdog. US Releases are always 2, 3 months earlier.

revolutionary road
gran torino
Defiance (Underrated)

as for slumdog, thought it was good, but not great. Very overrated film.

his dates are based on forum speculation as the studio havent 'officially' announced these titles. Everyone is just gandering a guess here

I am sure once there are preorder dates he will update it
