First wave of Studio Canal titles are available for pre-order from Amazon.fr

Anyone know if they'll have forced subtitles?

Supposedly any location where English isn't the primary language will have burned in subtitles.

Who knows...

This is also $36 per movie...not including shipping.

Considering Lions Gate is about to switch, my two interests (Basic Instinct and Total Recall) don't matter anymore.

Yep, I think Amir was the one who said that...right??

We just need to wait for the UK pre-orders.

I'll be sure to ask him tomorrow.

Here ya go....

Don't forget to ask about the Play.com titles.

Yeah yeah yeah...

Wait a second. What Amir says leaves wiggle room for me.

I'm still going to ask him. Regardless, like i said, I'm not interested in any of the titles.

I still find the whole "forced subs" thing to be somewhat questionable.

Japanese HD titles don't have forced subs.
My European SD-DVDS (outside the UK) don't have forced subs.
My Japanese SD-DVDS don't have forced subs.

Tell him CANDYROCKET wants an answer dammit!!!

What wiggle room? please explain.

Well, what he says doesn't make complete sense.

None of these movies are "only" distributed outside the UK. They're going to be distributed in many areas in Europe. So why would they have forced subtitles?

I dunno. He also said that he only sees 1 movie that's not distributed in the UK. It's just a bit confusing.

Yes please ask him. Even though they are Lionsgate titles I'd still be interested in finding out.

I dont think Total Recall is lionsgate....thats the one im after of the initial titles. So, ill probably preorder the UK version.

Quaid! Start the reactor!

Yes it is. It was Artisan. Artisan is now Lion's Gate.

see?

By golly your right. I probably wont be getting any of these until we get word from Lionsgate then.

I think the only title that's not from Lionsgate is the Fog correct? I believe that's a MGM title.

And just an FYI, I don't believe any of these titles will include extras if that matters to you.

I'll wait for the UK preorders.

for the record I'd love to see a HiDef presentation of Renaissance - because the theatrical presentation I saw was severly flawed with alot of edge enhancement along the slivers of white outlining.

I asked Amir. No subtitles on movies that are going to be released in the UK. Everything will be fine for the American movies.

so does that mean the french ones will have forced subs then?

again, NOT the english ones.

Aren't we a little snippy? Tired from last night's meeting? I heard the air in Scarsdale can do that to you. Thanks for the answer. I guess we'll just have to wait for UK pre-orders then.

Why would you have to wait for UK pre-orders? You could order these and they shouldn't have subtitles. Regardless, I would wait anyway because they're all LG titles for the most part.

And, yeah, i've only gotten 4-5 hours of sleep each night this week. The trek to Scarsdale was totally fine. Only about a 30 minute train ride. And there was one damn cute gay guy in the meeting (I thought I was the only one ). But that's about all the excitement I've gotten this week.

I thought Brotherhood of the wolf was suppose to be one of those titles? I may be overlooking it.
