Just got it from mail.

Siegfried & Roy - The Magic Box in 3D
An IMAX Experience

R3 Hong Kong NTSC

It's a 2-Disc set with very nice packaging.
It comes with a nice booklet in Chinese and English.
It also comes with 2 3D glasses.

I noticed that Canada has two very impressive versions of this summer blockbusters.

1st is Brotherhood of the Wolf - 3 disc set. I think this is the same set as the french edition except w/English Subs! 16x9.

2nd is Spiderman - Exclusive Limited Edition - 3disc set (w/bonus stuff like comic, cells from the film, etc. Maybe worth getting for hardcore spidey fans. 16x9.

These two places seem to have it in stock:

http://www.fnac.com/Shelf/article.as...n=6&Ra=-3&To=0

http://www.dvdshoppingcenter.com/fiche.asp?id=19913

I don't know why Amazon.fr and Cinestore don't have it listed.

(To everyone- I'm still working on updating the list by the way. I've been really busy as of late.)

Ooops! I missed your "hello" of last month.

Hope things are going better now and that you are not overdoing it.

Thanks, Cynthia! I appreciate it. I'm presuming that they both ship to the U.S.?

FWIW, I tried Cinestore first, as I've had a good experience with them in the past, but as you said, they didn't have it. I'm certainly giving Altavista's Babel translation service a work out! :-)

Bitter Moon (Lunes de Fiel) is only available on DVD in Spain. By Roman Polanski (1992) starring Kristen Scott Thomas, Peter Coyote, Hugh Grant, and Emmanuel Singer. Dolby 2.0 English and Dolby Mono in Spanish. Non-forced Spanish Subtitles. It's widescreen 1.85 and uncut.
It's one of my Favorites, see my sig...
Now I just need to order it, shipping is kinda expensive from DVDGO.com anyone have any other sites that carry it that ship to the rest of the EU?

Thanks Brian, but was looking for within the EU for a fair price and decent shipping. If someone is looking for Bitter Moon within the US, they may want to try here: http://www.xploitedcinema.com/dvds/dvds.asp?title=586
at $25 instead of $30 at your sugg. site.

Here's my submission...

The Entity (1982) starring Barbara Hershey (with full frontal) is available here in Region2 (Europe) and Region4 (Australia), but not in the U.S.

by the way, what happened to the 16:9/DTS thread and the other links on the first post???

Cynthia -- do you or anyone else know whether the 1981 version of "Tuck Everlasting" is available anywhere (on DVD, of course... )?

I noticed that EzyDVD in Australia has El Norte (1983) up for sale. Is 1.33:1 the film's OAR? IMDB info

And after looking around BENSONSWORLD, I saw Wings Of Desire (1987)(Der Himmel über Berlin) available with English subtitles; Outtakes; Deleted Scenes; English Commentary By Wim Wenders; Trailer; Photo Gallery; Wim Wenders Biography. I didn't see either BENSONS or Amazon.uk mention the aspect ratio; but BlackStar says the DVD is widescreen. IMDB lists 1.66:1 as the film's intended ratio, while Anchor Bay (U.K.) lists the DVD's aspect ratio as 1.85:1.

Can anyone give more info on either of these titles?

Does annyone have any idea when Vabank and Vabank II would be released on DVD with English subtitles at least? Both movies are just great Polish comedies but for some reason Polish DVDs do not have any international subtitles at all...
