Sunshine - any news on HD release?

As above.

I haven't seen this film yet but I am itching to.

Before I by the DVD, is there any news on a HD release?

Sunshine - Why no Blu-ray Disc

22nd October UK release, available for pre-order at Sendit:

It is a tad expensive at £22.89...hopefully it will be available cheaper elswhere at some point.

Thanks Jim.

I've not seen anything on a US release though and with it being Fox, I guess it will be region coded.

Don't worry the DVD hasn't even been announced in the US yet either.

Yeah, it was only released in the cinema in the US over the summer so I think it will be nearer Christmas for a US DVD/Blu-ray release is available.

SendIt are usually pretty good and hopefully this price for the UK release wll come down to the usual £17 price they have

Well just pre-ordered Sunshine on Blu-ray from Asda online for £17.97 delivered (also 28 weeks later same price as well). This is about the cheapest I've seen so far for either film. Would do the normal and pre-order off of Movietyme but since we're talking a Fox film it'll be the usual region locking and won't work in my player.

Play and Amazon are showing this as the 29th Oct now, a week later.

Still no news of the US BD yet.

I wouldn't be in so much of a hurry to watch we I thought it was absolutely appalling but thats my opinion.

Sure it would look good in hidef though

Almost enough to make me want to buy a PS3. Even in upscaled SD it looks stunning. The film itself was so close to being a classic, only let down by the last 30-40 minutes which were a bit disjointed.

I'm looking at getting this on Blu-ray from either Asda or The Hut. However my PS3 is a USA version - what are the chances of the UK release being region locked?

Its fox isn't it? Almost definitely region locked i would have said...

I heard that there was a Japanese release of this in September but I can't track it down anywhere - if I could get hold of one of these this would be ideal.

Can anyone point me to an on-line Japanese retailer who sells to the UK with this title in stock?

I've glanced at amazon.co.jp and yesasia, and neither seem to have this listed, let alone in stock. I did order the UK BD in the hope that it'd work on my US PS3, but I know it won't (****ing Fox!) so I've cancelled that.

Apparently the US BD of 28 Days Later has a specific BD trailer for Sunshine, so there's hope for a Region A release yet...
