[url]http://www.bluraymods.com/[/url] sell modifications for various BD players and modded versions of some players which can play all DVD and BD regions.
Of course they are a bit more expensive than the vanilla versions…
But who knows, next year various Chinese players will finally hit the market, and hopefully they will be a bit more easily “hackable” than the currently available BD players.
Hey guys I don’t know if this has been shared yet but I thought I’d give everyone a head’s up.
I work at the Disney Store now and starting today we’re selling pre-orders of WALL-E. With the pre-order you get a set of free lithographs and a 15% off coupon for use in the store (only good on merchandising and clothing, not media or park tickets, etc.)
Pre-order for WALL-E on DVD is about $20. Blu-Rey 2-Disc special edition is about $30 I believe? Or is it $40? Whatever, it’s in that range.
SADLY, THE DISNEY STORE IS NOT SELLING THE SUPER SPECIAL AWESOME 3-DISC EDITION, so don’t waltz into your local Disney Store and walk out disappointed! If you want the three disc, pre-order elsewhere (not sure who is selling it, but shop around).
If any of you are in Washington state you should come buy it from me. ;D
Hog-Hug: Thanks for letting us know, I think I’ll be heading to the Disney Store sometime really soon. Update: I just got them, they’re larger than usual and the folder comes with a game!
PPP - I’d say sometime in late January/early February. But personally, I’m going to order the US 3-disc (normal) DVD as soon as it hits eBay from November 22nd. No waiting for 2+ months for me!
I didn’t even know until last week that there was going to be a 2 (3) disc DVD! To quote the Haunted Mansion Ghost Host, (yeah I’m on a Haunted Mansion kick) perhaps Pixar has “received my sympathetic vibrations”. This is great! I’m so glad there’ll be 2 discs! I’ve missed them!
That’s why I bought the 1 disc DVD at The Disney Store and got my lithographs, I also pre-ordered the 3 disc Blu-ray online, so if it comes in the mail the 18th, I return the 1 disc DVD pre-order, and if not, I don’t miss a second of WALL-E action!
Proof I’m a crazy Pixar fan!
These last few days I’ve been going insane. The days are going slower. I’ve been counting down the days for about 5 weeks and we still got 3 more to go.
Yeah, I have to admit, after seeing WALL-E in the cinema for the last time, I thought I’d had my fill of Pixar goodness, but now it’s been a while, I’m starting to get really desperate about seeing it again. Darn you, Pixar, and your addictive films!
I’m in the UK and have a multi-region DVD player - does anyone know the differences between the Region 1 WALL-E Collector’s Edition (3 discs) and the Region 2 Collector’s Edition (2 discs)?
they’re almost identical. The third disc is simply a digital copy for computers and ipod.
The featurette “WALL-E’s Tour of the Universe” is missing from the european version, but the “Geek-o-rama” should be a european exclusive (45secs preview on Amazon.co.uk).
Also ““Lots of Bots” storybook” should be missing from the region 2 edition.
In the Blu-ray edition the BD-Live feature is U.S. only.
