Re: A lot of new titles from UK


Since these are imports are they too going to have forced subtitles?

There are a few titles in this list I wouldn't mind checking out.

These discs are from the English-speaking UK, there's no reason for them to have forced subtitles.

HD DVD currently has no region coding scheme whatsoever implemented (although I've heard one is being planned for the future). The titles linked to in this thread will play in all HD DVD players currently available in North America.

Re: A lot of new titles from UK


A number of the titles being released in the UK are ether allready released here or going to be by december. There was only one title that is not on the release schedule here that I want. (The Crow)

Maybe I might pickup that title once there is some more information available on it. Like what surround formats are available on the disc and if its a VC-1 encoded disc. And maybe I might look for a review to check if the quality of the disc is good or bad.

Indeed. We, the English, invented the language you know. That's why they call it... English! ;-)
