I had added that to my "saved for later" cart section at the end of March. The price was 19,95 then. Maybe they've caught onto the overall scarcity of the title.

Great movie. Freaking hillarious, IMO. Picked it up from Tony @ Xploited awhile back. I have both the Bu and Red version. Red version blows away the blu one.

How does the audio compare? I have it on Blu, never have been impressed with the mpeg2 PQ; I'm sure the VC-1 does look a lot better. But the PCM 6.1 rocked, how does the DTS-HD compare?

I couldn't compare between the VC-1 and MPEG-2 pictures, however I read that the VC-1 is slightly better. But "slightly" is relative.

As for PQ and AQ of the German release, it's one of the best discs I own; of nearly 150 titles.

My expectations for this movie were very low so I don't know if I enjoyed it because it was better than expected. It was sort of like Payback on fast forward.

Can't rate audio I'm afraid as my sound goes thru the TV. I'm not equipped yet for the other stuff. Disc 2 (the "Fuck You" disc) with the extras IS PAL but you can always run it on your PC or strip the region coding easily and burn it to another disc.

Is the TV B&W or colour system?
Possibly with a honking great mono speaker!

Nice, I just checked and my 9 EUR backordered copy is getting prepared to ship. Finally, the order I placed 2/29 is complete.

Too bad they cancelled my 9 EUR copy of Fantastic Four 2 a couple of weeks ago though.
