This is a Universal film in the states, so I imagine it'll appear on HD DVD sometime...probably with a TrueHD track, the commentary, making-of, deleted scenes, and alternate ending of the U.S. DVD too.

Can anyone confirm if the AU Universal releases of Rambo 1-3 and Total Recall have the pitch issues of the Studio Canal releases?

I believe they do, but I have the French Totall Recall HD DVD and honestly don't hear it.

Is the French Enemy at the Gates HD DVD still SNAFU'ed on the A1/XA1?

It's a Weinstein Co. distributed film here.

Huh, I could have sworn it was Newline... Weinstein is much worse at this point lol.

Speaking of which they just got the Dutch Lord of War, Flyboys, Saw 3, and Reservoir Dogs HD DVDs in stock.

esc · 11-27-2007, 04:32 PM

I was just going to bring up that there is a Dutch release of Reservoir Dogs is out on HD.

I'm wondering if there is another place to buy some of these discs. For example, I was able to save a bit of money by going directly to amazon.co.uk to get The Prestige HD, instead of buying it at Xploitedcinema. Amazon.fr has T2 for a few Euros less than getting it thru Xploited. Although after exhancge and shipping, I think you might end up only saving less than $1 on T2.

Are there Polish, Dutch and German sites that one could order directly from that might have some of these discs for cheaper ?

I would seriously consider just going through Xploited 95% of the time. Much less wait time (always get my orders in 2 days w/ priority), easy communication, and returns. I've dealt with Xploited a lot (way before they started carrying HD/BD) and they're good people, never a problem.

The only other places I'd consider is Amazon.uk and Amazon.jp. Amazon.de tends to have insane shipping costs and Amazon.fr screwed me around more than once.

DDDHouse is also great, but they only have just a handful of BDs so far.

Sehnzeleid · 11-30-2007, 06:24 PM

Universal just announced American Gangster for HD DVD in Germany on 3.27.08.

Also Warner announced The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford for HD/BD in Germany on 2.29.08. Warner just announced the U.S. DVD, but not a U.S. HD/BD release, so I dunno...?

Pony Canyon has announced Afro Samurai for HD/BD in Japan with TrueHD and DTS-MA tracks on 2.20.08.

Apparently Lord of War is a mess and not worth it.

However people are reporting that Reservoir Dogs looks significantly better than the BD. So that may be worth it especially when Xploited has it for only $27! Only downside is that it uses MPEG2, but people are stating its an excellent MPEG2 encode.

Yes, but I don't want them if they aren't the proper framerate

I know at least half of the titles from the first batch of Dutch Filmworks titles are confirmed to be at the wrong framerate. I'm guessing Res. Dogs is t
