Re: Bad-der Santa - Blu Ray

I REALLY love this movie and contacted movietyme about it to see it worked on a UK PS3 and they said:-

"Hi, Tested last night and it doesn't i am afraid."

Oh well we need to wait and see if Disney are going to add it to the UK Blu-Ray list for next year!!!

To be fair to Deucey, he didn't actually say it did.

Yes, to be fair he said he'd spoken to someone who said it would work.
