This was an eye opener, I wonder if we will see it


Someone just posted about this on another board.


It is slated for Feb 27 of this year, thats not too far off.


Amazon France website -> link



for 49.99 Euros, and considering HD-DVD does not have region encoding, these should be ready to watch in our US players.

The link isn't dead, he just didn't take the referral code out.

http://www.amazon.fr/Stargate-sg-1-s...dp/B0011YJPC8/
Okay, I tried to upload a screenshot of the page.


Let's see if this works


Amazon Page listing for Stargate SG1 Season 9 on Amazon in France.


Now the next question is, not speaking French, will it have English subtitles(somewhat likely) or possibly an English soundtrack(doubtful).


The raw link is

What?


I have yet to hear of a HD-DVD import that doesn't have it's native audio track on it (which for this would be English)

Then that would be good news AND HD-DVD is region free everywhere unless I am mistaken, though getting your hands on this will obviously not be easy.

It's pretty easy to order from Amazon France

Yes, just order from amazon.fr I've used them a few time now. takes about 2 weeks with basic shiping. You just use your amazon.com sign in info. So you don't even have to create a new acount
Too bad it's not season 1. This is a show I'd really like to get into...

Season 1 looks like trash on DVD and has only a Dolby 2.0 sound track. I would like to see if not a HD version a better DVD version of the early series.


I'll be ordering SG1 season 9 if it has English soundtrack. Got a huge SG fan in the family.



Going through Amazon FR HD list, interesting "Le secret de terabithia" and the Rambo trilogy (wonder if they fixed the pitch issues with it?). Some of these distributors do on show up on the IMDb

What are "La cite interdite" (Forbidden City?), "Le maître d'armes" "Ran" "Deux Frères" (two boys?), & "Les Chevaliers du ciel"?


Any good?

Wasn't there a trailer on the first batch of Studio Canal HD DVDs with scenes from Stargate - The movie in them?


I'd love to get the movie on HD DVD. Never cared too much for the TV show though...
Woot! I can't wait for this!

It's funny when I order from amazon.com it takes 2-3 weeks and I live in the US. Yet amazon.fr averages 2 weeks. I've used them 3 times now.


Id assume I'm using basic shiping as its the cheepest option. I do have to pay for shiping were as amazon.com is free. So that might have something to do with it..


Or prehapps I've just been lucky who knows the next time might take really long. As so far it doesn't appear to have hit customs

Yeah, that's odd. But I have experienced something similar ordering from Amazon UK (for delivery in the US). I received two HD DVDs from the UK much more quickly than I have received some of my orders from Amazon. Go figure!

Really?


Compare it to any other season, like season 4, then go back and rewatch S1 and the poor PQ and graininess should be very obviously.


the Nox and Hathor have some very poor PQ. The Pilot episodes have some bad PQ as well. Later seasons have some outstanding work.


Dolby 2.0 sound for season 1 and the other 9 seasons have 5.1.


They'd have to re-master season 1 for dvd just to match the quality of the other seasons.
