"The Hurt Locker"

This has to be a bootleg of some sort. I just did a worldwide search and can't find where this is legitimately available DVD. Regardless, I bought it anyway, because I have an all regional player. And $9.99 US plus $3.00 shipping, not bad.

Maybe you should have checked out Italy, where there was a DVD release the end of last year according to IMDb. You should find that the bootleg DVD you probably bought has a shorter running time than the US release, about 6 minutes, thanks to the 4% PAL speedup.

I did a Google search, and found nothing. Regardless, I'm glad to have it.

Thanks Pro-B! I just ordered the blu-ray and hope it doesn't have forced Italian subtitles. Looks like it has a nice DTS-HD 5.1 soundtrack thoguh!

Chupper, this Italian release (blu-ray ) not only it doesn't have forced Italian subtitles - it also includes English subtitles (and the image quality is brilliant). Best film of the year...

Re: "The Hurt Locker"

Just to clarify, they reported it's region B locked. Sorry, when I stated region B, I meant that it would only play on region b players or code free players. I wasn't trying to state the obvious.

Yeah this movie was incredible, I'm surprised it hasn't had any DVD release dates yet in R1.
