I was wondering this point myself, but I'm pretty sure in the case of the UK at least, releasing it a week later allows the cast and director to promote the movie there (not that it really needs it at this point). This would be backed up by the majority of the cast (except Gary Oldman) and Nolan...

Agree completely, that was how I read it too.

Matthew, according to EzyDVD the 2-disc Vengeance is being released in R4 as part of a new Die Hard boxset on 7/7... will be interesting to see what the transfer looks like (most likely not great)!

Not sure if anyone's mentioned it but the two disc SE is coming to region 4 with specs listed: http://www.ezydvd.com.au/item.zml/788067

I think the Ace Ventura LD is in OAR and has a director commentary.

A week ago I saw some filming a block away from my work in the CBD and there was a dude dressed in a SWAT uniform. I came back later that night and there were two SWAT vans with "Special Weapon Attack Team" written on the sides, and they had taped off the area around the entrance to the AXA...

I really never factor too much trust into any single review, but I like reading them after I see a particular movie. I may decide to watch something depending on good general buzz, but if it looks interesting to me I'll usually go and see it to form my own opinion about it.

I've been waiting on this one for years. Come on Warner!

I'm not too sure but the R2 could also be possibly censored?

I'm sure Wolverine would do much better than Elektra in terms of box office... whether it would be a better movie is another question. Let's hope they actually write a good script for it!

I just saw Elektra last night, and for the life of me can't figure out what the hell they thought they were doing. True, Daredevil made money, and most people hated it, but I'm sure even the ones that liked it weren't begging for an Elektra movie. (BTW I saw it for free, and certainly wouldn't...

Whoops I actually just remembered today that JB Hifi actually split into two separate stores in the city area (literally around the corner from each other), one for DVDs the other for CDs. Hope your friend manages to find it OK! It's not too hard to miss. I ended up paying a visit there...

Sounds like it was probably on Elizabeth St, may have even been JB Hifi (is only a block or two away from the GPO) - a yellow and black colour scheme on the outside, not very clean looking on the inside, but it's packed full of goodies. Next door is Video Collection, which tends to import...

If your friend is in Melbourne, I suggest shopping at JB Hifi, it's a CD/DVD store like our equivalent to Best Buy. A lot of DVD titles in general are ridiculously cheap, though we mostly tend to follow R1 releases by and large. As Andre said, there are a few R4 titles which have 16x9...

Another one for The Killer Criterion... saw it discounted at a store but had no money on me (nor a DVD player at the time) :frowning:
