Default Amazon.UK 3 for 2 sale better than USA one IMO

I know a lot of people are jumping on the new US Amazon 3 for 2 sale, but for my $$ the UK one is far better. Over 157 titles available including the non US available

"Sweeney Todd"
"Almost Famous"
"The Island"
"Starship Troopers"
"Pan's Labyrinth" (superior less dnr version!)
"The Eagle Has Landed"
"Capricorn One"
"Starsky and Hutch"

(these titles region free)

Anyway, I already placed one order, and I may just have to make another.

www.Amazon.co.uk./

SEARCH "Blu-Ray"
and then click on the "bd store" link
and you'll see the link for "3 for 2"

yeah I just looked and it IS LOCKED which I didn't realize.
but he can change his order if he needs to before it ships.
I think I've weeded out all the locked one's now.
I really thought the original list was ok.
but it should be good now.

It is indeed but with the LG BH 200 player I have I can take care of that pretty quick. There are known hacks that permit you to switch between BD regions so I'm all good.

I've already placed my order for 'Ocean's Eleven', 'National Treasure 2' & '30 Days of Night'.
But honestly, UK blu-ray discs are really expensive. It cost me almost 75 US dollars for these three titles, that's almost $25 each. Hope US dollar can appreciate a little bit this year.

Other than LastSonOfKrypton, anyone else interested in getting just a single disc or two? I may do a small group buy if other are interested.

Just saw that Run, Fatboy, Run is getting a September US release but with a $36 MSRP I'll stick to the Region B UK version.
