Trainspotting on Blu-ray Region A
http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%83%88%E3...726038&sr=1-53

No idea if it's going to be region free. Looks like a Sony release so might be.

Clearly says ABC on the back cover image of Trainspotting.
I've got a copy on the way from Yesasia and will report back when it arrives.

Japanese release is NOT censored but the PQ is reported to be lackluster.

Re: Trainspotting on Blu-ray Region A
I pre ordered this and was pretty underwhelmed by the transfer in a direct comparison with my UK SE dvd upscaled.In the end I decided to ebay the BD and wait for a better version to come along.Great film though!
