We are not anal Theo! We are good. There is a difference.

It has. It has had a release in most of Europe - UK, France, Belgium, Holland, etc. - but those are the flippers. You will need to be able to play PAL stuff and have your DVD player equipped to play Region 2 or Region 4 but it has had an Australian release all on one side! Not seen the film...
