You can pick me up a copy, too. :) AES256 09-08-07, 06:46 PM Hey guys im flying to the UK and just wondering if you can recommend any titles that are UK HD DVD only that are worth picking up or wish were available here. some lists would be greatly appreciatedTake a look at the AVS Imports sticky thread (http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=855923). Obvious UK release titles that come to mind are The Pianist and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Also consider checking out prices online (with Amazon, Sendit and Xploited) as the B&M stores in the UK are not cheap, charging between £15 to £30 for HD DVDs... 5thDanMaster 09-08-07, 07:20 PM The Island BuckNaked 09-08-07, 07:26 PM Le Pacte des Loups lockheede 09-09-07, 01:36 AM The UK (BBC) release of Planet Earth! You can pick me up a copy, too. :) What is different about their release? lgans316 09-09-07, 02:35 AM The Island and The Rock UCFKevin 09-09-07, 03:23 AM They have The Rock over there?!? Oh MAN. Is it available to get imported? That's the first I've heard of this! Although, the Criterion Edition SD is as close to HD as SD can get.

Although, the Criterion Edition SD is as close to HD as SD can get. Haha, that's the first DVD I ever bought. Well, the first release of it. I remember it had kind of a long pause on layer switch and I was wondering if something was wrong with the player. lgans316 09-09-07, 05:44 AM Btw BVHE has minted a fresh HD master for the Rock. You won't be disappointed with The Island HD DVD either. JeffY 09-09-07, 05:53 AM The Rock is only on Blu Ray in the UK. Rasczak 09-09-07, 07:14 AM Terminator 2 is available on HD DVD - although it did sell out immediately upon release so might be difficult to find. I will echo what others have stated though - you will find store purchased discs in the UK very expensive. I mean you will see the prices and go :eek: :eek: :eek: Buy online instead. lgans316 09-09-07, 08:30 AM Don't buy T2 HD DVD coz the PQ sux. It's better to wait for the German version which is said to be encoded from a fresh master. |
