All the PAL versions of Anchor Bay titles I have seen so far are converted from NTSC and not real PAL transfers. Even the ones release by Universal! I have both the R1 and R2 UK editions of the book of the dead edition of Evil Dead and the R1 beats the R2 in picture quality.

I was traveling around Australia last month and of course I had to checkout more or less every DVD store I walked/drove by. I noticed that the Back To The Future Trilogy is now available in a different packing than the one I have. I got my R4 copy from EZYDvd.com when the trilogy was released...

Actually all DVDs in Europe are PAL since there aren't any SECAM DVDs available and there is no NTSC country in Europe. South Africa is also R2 while the rest of Africa is R5. Most Columbia R1 titles (and maybe other studios as well) are both R1 and R4 for the south American market. This...

Between all the VCDs and DVDs there seem to be very view LDs available here in Singapore. All the LDs I could find were some leftovers between 10-20 S$ (mostly animes and music titles). Is there still a place were a wider selection of LDs is available.

I would definitely recommend the German version of King Kong: http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASI...084397-6028052 I have two other releases from the same French label that has released King Kong (The Leopard Man and Cat People) and they have serious compression issues while the German...

I have the french R2 version of part 1 which is 2:35:1 and anamorphic. It also has the english language track: http://www.dvdfr.com/dvd/fiche.php3?id=2276 But there are forced french subtitles when the english language track is selected. Something to consider if you don't have a player which...
