A YES for me, can't resist any of Robert De Niro  movies , highly recommended by me owned the dvd and now it's time to upgrade QUOTE(johnbluraylover @ Mar 17 2011, 08:37 PM) i can't agree more. by the way, AMZ UK is going to release CROSS OF IRON, a very brutal war movie made in 1970s. 1 of the best war movie ever made by Sam Peckinpah (the Wild Bunch) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Added on March 17, 2011, 8:45 pmI just tried to made an order with 3 pre-order-Apocalypse Now, Don't look now & Cross of Iron & 6 available titles. But AMZ UK would only ship all the discs to me together in Jun when all titles available. I don't think i can wait for 3 months, so i cancel the order.  Tempting will there be a US release ? |

QUOTE(johnbluraylover @ Mar 25 2011, 08:37 PM) hi SCARFACE - AMZ UK - 3 choices: COOL PACKING......  This is awesome as it is being released by Universal so it's safe to assume it is region free. Does the US edition got any special/limited edition release for it |

- 1) Depends on who is the release company, some is same, some is not, some getting new transfer - example trainspotting. But mostly same transfer.
- 2) Not all is region free, Germany default is Region B, so need do some work before you purchase any, I all time using following site for region code checking - http://www.bluray-disc.de/ Anyway I found out it at least having quite a lot of region free, not like France, 90% locked.
- 3) 99% got. Above same site can give you the information you need. Against not like France, 99% only France subtitle, France is a bit...haizz.... nothing to say. You can go here - http://www.dvdfr.com/search/catalogue_br.html for France release title checking, include region, audio and subtitle.
The site is very helpful, thank you Already ordered HUlk, Van Helsing & Sherlock Holmes . The Shipping charges is still EUR14 2 more in cart waiting for this first order to arrive only to see the outcome then maybe order some more I've been poisoned

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Mar 27 2011, 01:50 PM) Welcome  German packaging most the time nice, they are putting effort on it.
Added on March 27, 2011, 1:56 pmThose blu cinemathek blu-ray packaging is nice! All available on 21-April-2011. But... Sadly from all the information I can gather, 99.9% is region B locked with only Deutsch subtitle available! I only found Hass is Region A & B with English subtitle... Only one! and the only one is BD25  What is HASS u guys r not talking about Machete right BTW Machete is being release by Sony Pictures so it should be region free, correct |

Added on March 29, 2011, 11:12 amhi all, i should have never mentioned the word "FINAS" because i kena again! for the FINAS application on the AMZ CANADA disc i bought! the bright side is it took only 5 days to arrived at a cheaper postage than the US (30 days to arrived), but now, i have to go to the Government Dept again. Bro, are u staying in Penang since u had to go to FINAS and your order must be shipped using DHL. I had the same experience twice. DHL service in Penang sucks. I've ordered before from other retailers using FEDex/UPS & one other cap ayam courier co. never had the hassle to go to FINAS. DAMN DHL |

QUOTE(johnbluraylover @ Mar 29 2011, 11:04 PM) hi bro, good guess.  Actually i did not choose DHL, i choosed the cheapest postage in AMZ Canada, but for some reason AMZ Canada has been very generous to use the 1st priority mail-DHL express.  it only took 5 days to reach & only cost me C$3.55/disc. if i were to choose this speed/service in US, i would have to pay at leat U$8/disc. thank u AMZ CANADA. somehow, the CUSTOM officer in DHL just like the "FINAS" cert, so, i have to go again. i been there 2 years ago. Fortunately there was a very nice & gentlmen officer there & he approve all my movie without asking much. What i need is to pay RM2/disc. I hope the officer still there. damn, i need to find my GPS. Their office is in Bandar Perda, the same row as Bank Rakyat and beside kedai kain (to lazy to translate) in case you forget |

Mine shipped 28 March until today nil, 7 days also To make it more upsetting got 3 packages from amazon.uk over due already don't know what the ketam are doing |
