Default Amazon - Sin City - From Dusk Till Dawn?

Why does AMAZON still list SIN CITY and FROM DUSK TILL DAWN as coming out on Dec 2nd and 9th?

Remember, I was the one that thought FROM DUSK was still coming out on Oct 21st because it read so in here at HIGHDEFDIGEST.com up until the last day - it was never changed here. So everybody in these message boards got on me, saying things like, "Always check at Amazon the week before"

So, now I am checking at Amazon and it lists SIN CITY and FROM DUSK TILL DAWN as still coming out on 12/2 and 12/9.

Its not a foreign "Amazon.ca" either. Its American Amazon.

So whats the deal with those 2 titles?

How do the less informed know that those are imports theat they are selling?
Say someone just got a Bluray player, or is getting someone a Bluray player for a Christmas gift..etc wont they see those 2 titles and assume they're officially avail in America?

Ahh.. ok.. but, whew.. Thats all the way down at the bottom:

Product Description
Import Blu-ray/Region A pressing. The acclaimed hit from director Robert Rodriguez delivers explosive stories straight from the pages of Frank Miller's hip series of Sin City graphic novels


Most people might simply read that its "REGION 1 usa / canada and NTSC" and think that its official, right? I mean, it does read "USA and CANADA".

How would one know that there will eventually be another USA / CANADA version.. especially when Amazon is pairing SIN CITY up with WANTED and BATMAN DARK KNIGHT, which will be genuine domestic releases?
