Re: amazon uk deals
Hmmm...I was going to order Life (Attenborough version), but it won't play more than the BBC intro on my US PS3 (borrowed from a mate who bought it at Amazon UK and said it plays fine on his standalone US BD player). Anyone else got this and tried it on PS3? The screen just goes black after the intro and I tried bringing up menu and it does nothing. All discs do the same. Might have to go with the shittier US packaging (UK one doesn't have the discs housed on top of each other).

The UK import of Life will not play on any American PS3, which does not handle the video format, 1080i @ 50 Hz, which the UK Blu-ray contains. The release is region-free, and some standalone American players (computers will have zero problems) can play it because they handle that video format.

Harry Potter Years 1-6 -- £31.16 shipped after VAT, which comes out to around $46. Keep in mind that the Blu-rays come in three wide double-disc cases, instead of six individual ones. At least it saves space.

Yep, same transfer. Universal was the one who produced the Blu-ray Discs for themselves and Paramount US/Canada. Doesn't matter which Gladiator you buy: US, Canadian, UK, France, German, Australian, Hong Kong, Korean, Japan, etc., it's the exact same transfer.

Re: amazon uk deals
Hmmm. I've been led to belive that the UK Bluray release of Torchwood was in the original 50hz format. For it to play on your PS3, that might suggest that it was (shudder) converted to 60hz (like "Doctor Who: The Specials"). Anybody here know for sure if the UK release is 50 or 60hz?
