Just got the new Battle Royale from Amazon UK
I just finished watching the new NTSC version of Battle Royale from Tartan. What an amazing transfer compared to the previous Tartan release. I'm in such a good mood, I've got an extra Amazon UK promotional GC. It's a 5 off 7.50 coupon.

I didn't get mine from Amazon but I agree the transfer way better than the R3 although I miss the DTS track. Nice, correct, player generated subtitles as well. If you're a BIG fan of the film, its worth the upgrade. Now only if a subtitled Gaiden were part of a 2 disc set.

"...Nice, correct, player generated subtitles as well..."
(fuming) ...I've said it before, and I'll say it again: the player oesn't 'generate' anything! it merely reads the bitstreams that are encoded on the disc...
(strangely enough, nobody would ever dream of writing "...Nice player generated DTS soundtrack..." - I wonder why?)

Did someone already use the coupon??
I get this message:
*** This gift certificate has already been applied to your account. If you wish to use this balance towards your purchase, please leave this field blank. If you wish to apply another gift certificate to your account, please enter the new claim code number below. ***
But there is no discount in the final checkout....

Then again Dolby Digital 5.1 tracks are actually a physical part of the print...
