Well it seems like there is an official release date of this movie in Germany which is december 14.
No mention of price or anything else.
But nice to know i think.

It is good to know, what with the Blu-ray release seeming to be delayed! Would rather not wait until Christmas, so hopefully will get some news on the Blu-ray soon. Great for HD DVD owners

Oooh... Reservoir Dogs on November 13th! That better have an English track.

On this note has anyone any experience of hi def releases from foreign language territories? I've had problems with lip sync on DVD on the english soundtrack. Is it the same with hi def?

I've bought discs from France , Germany , Poland and Japan and not had any lipsynch problems . I think the latest Toshiba firmware updates have fixed most of these problems . The hardest part is memorising your way around the japanese menus

Anyway, it's all good stuff!

No I didn't mean machine lip sync problems. I've bought SD DVDs fom the likes of Germany and France with the English soundtrack well out of sync on a player with no such problem. I guess they just stuck the soundtrack on any old how as it isn't their own lingo.

All the best

" I guess they just stuck the soundtrack on any old how as it isn't their own lingo. "

I dont think its that , Bri , I think it has more to do with HDMI and digital processing but when it gets sorted it's great isn't it ?

I'm talking standard DVD. No HDMI. I've encountered a few bad discs like the German DVD of Lost Highway. The English soundtrack was sometimes ok but badly out of sync on too many ocassions. Ruined the film. I'm afraid that it may be the same with hi def.

Best wishes

Hi
Never seen the film,but Jessica Marie Alba in high definition has sort of sealed the deal for me.
I'm a sleaze sorry!

Are you referring to BR version? A search brings up no HD DVD version?!

Just about to post the same myself.. where's the HD-DVD at movietyme... Don't confuse it with the first film !!

reckless · 03-10-2007, 11:17 AM

Apologies, I misread the title and thought the thread was about the HD version of the film, not the HD DVD version.

I have raised idiocy to a new level: Sorry for the confusion.

Do you mean "SD version of the film"

I pop into so many forums, some deal with both formats in the same area and I just meant that I misread the title, it was no slur on the HD DVD format - honest

I swear on my accountants eyesight that I'm not a fanboy for BR (I'm way, way too old).

Given the upcoming Tosh promotion, I may even get myself a HD DVD player for crimbo.
