WHV Announcement: Clint Eastwood-New BD Releases & DVD - Page 2

post #31 of 32
I'd like to get an individual Blu-ray release of The Dead Pool, since the other four Dirty Harry films are available in two-packs.  But there doesn't seem to be any such release here in the US.  I see that there is a region-free UK release, but it's my understanding that while Blu-ray HD is a worldwide standard and should play on any player, UK Blu-ray discs sometimes include standard-def extras in PAL, which won't play on a US player.  Does anyone know whether that's the case with The Dead Pool?  Will everything on the disc work fine in a US Blu-ray player?  

I notice that the disc's specs appear identical to those of the Dead Pool Blu-ray from the US Dirty Harry Blu-ray boxed set.  Since it's a region-free disc, might they even be the exact same disc?  Anyone know?

Thanks.

Warner authors all their discs in the US, with NTSC for SD content, no matter the territory they are going to. Often the US and the UK discs are the exact same disc image. And Warner titles are always open region. It's a perfectly safe buy, though I can see them eventually releasing it stand alone in the US.
