Blade - Dutch Import

[Sky_Captain]

I've ordered this based on positive reports regarding this company's release of Se7en,(also out same day, correct aspect ratio, DTS-HD-MA, no extras). If it turns out to be crap, well it only cost 15 Euros delivered to the UK.

Will do. If it's on schedule and they ship it on time, I should have it for the weekend.

region free?

[Sky_Captain]

No idea. I have a region B player, so I'm not worried.

Any good Dutch resellers that ship to the US? I would order this and Se7en regardless of region coding.

It appears the Dutch version is 2.35:1 OAR and has DTS-HD MA audio. I'd like to know a good place to order this as well.

Is the Dutch version of Se7en any good? I was only aware of the cropped Canadian version until now.

Some people on this Blu-ray.com Dutch releases thread suggested bol.com or freerecordshop.nl. Kept getting "Page not found" for latter, then tried bol.com, but it's all in Dutch. They appear to have both discs in stock, but it's hard to navigate without knowing Dutch. Guess I could use Google translate every step of the way, but somewhat risky if there's a question/problem with the order.

FRS site works fine for me. I have had trouble placing an order through that site lately, I don't know if it's fixed. I would suggest vanleest.nl over FRS if you're ordering more than one disc. Vanleest has a shipping cap, FRS doesn't.

Avoid bol.com like the plague. They have a flat rate shipping to the US, around 20 euro as I recall, but they say the reserve the right to cancel orders with over 4 item for that flat rate shipping. One guy did a group buy for around 40 disc for HD DVDs and they honored it, but it took almost 2 months to arrive. And I did an order from their German site - dol.de - and it took 6 weeks from shipment to arrival. I didn't think they still had surface mail service from Europe to the US, but they found one.

Thanks. vanleest.nl shows both discs as "pre-order" and they show the Canadian Alliance version in the screenshot for 'Se7en'. Probably a mistake, but looks like I should wait a little.

[Sky_Captain]

The Se7en disc is safe as well, same specs as Blade.
My copy of Blade just shipped today from Freerecordshop, so so much for having it for the weekend.
