Turtles Forever to be released UNCUT in the UK - Page 5

isny · 04-06-2011, 10:46 PM

Longtime lurker here, extremely looking forward to this release. (Already pre-ordered it!)

I thought I'd register to clear up the confusion regarding UK and Region 2 DVD's. (Which will give more of you the chance to import this!)

As a previous poster mentioned, most DVD players will play Region 2 DVD's, or they have an unlock code available online that you can find by googling your players model number.

In regards to PC DVD drives, they do indeed have region locks on them, but you can get around this by watching your DVD's with VLC. VLC is a free program, like Windows Media Player, that can play almost any video format. Just pop any region DVD into your DVD player, open up VLC, and you'll be able to play it without having to change the region code on your PC drive.

Hopefully this helps a few of you with your decisions, and if you have any questions, please feel free to ask =)

That's a heckuva screwup you made there.

Yeah, ain't it?! I went back and re-read that, and you are right; I did misspell that. And is my face RED!

(as red as the shirt that I'm currently wearing, in fact!

Thankies for pointing that out for me, though. I shall go correct that immediately.

*goes to do do so, blushing mightlily the whole time*

EDIT: There. Mistake corrected. And thanks again for pointing out to me, gobo; guys.

Note to self: NEXT time, preview the post I'm about to make, and RE-read it to catch such silly mistakes in spelling.

Mine shipped today

(or it "dispatched" as those crazy Brits say

)

*CyberCubed* · 04-16-2011, 10:40 PM

I'm going to hold off buying this just in case a U.S. region 1 version gets announced by Nick soon.

I've double dipped on TMNT DVDs so many times now I don't want to get burned again.

With 4kids filling for bankruptcy protection I doubt it will be seen in North America any time soon.

Mine also dispatched today =D

4Kids no longer has a stake in anything TMNT. Though I equally doubt that it will be released here in the near future, if ever.

I was in Holland the other day, and I noticed they had the turtles forever DVD! It's not the new version, but the old one: it even has the same (crappy) dvd cover. I never new that turtles forever was released as Region 2 in Europe.

Just order it, its only one dvd. I thought about this too but we could be waiting forever, back then i thought 4Kids or Nick would release the season sets but that didn't happen so i had to shell out a lot of case for the Aussie releases. Since this is just one dvd, its definitely worth it.

Volvagia · 04-17-2011, 09:17 AM

I decided to just order it and Zavvi has free shipping on it too.

Why, if ever? The first DVD was probably too far into production for Nick to change it.

The fact that they actually are having the movie re-released in another country through a different company shows they know their is a complete version.

*gobo* · 04-17-2011, 11:06 AM

And, that different company being a non-profit organization rather than the UK branch of Paramount (who normally handles all of Nick's releases in the UK) suggests that this release is wrapped in red tape.

*TheSkeletonMan939* · 04-17-2011, 11:18 AM

Tomorrow it comes out!

I assume no one's recieved theirs early yet...?

k_lala · 04-17-2011, 12:15 PM

I believe it takes about a week to ship from UK to US.

Could also be the Region 1 DVD. When I visited Holland I found out that they mostly sell Region free DVD Players and also have many Region 1 DVDs in their Shops. So I wouldn't coun't on it being a Region 2 Release.

Btw. Ordered the UK DVD should be here any day now

(Thought it would be nice if someone who gets this posts a pic of the disk-face for is, once they've got their copy. Hint, hint, hint.

Here you go:

That is a cool DVD insert. Love it!

rufus · 04-18-2011, 11:28 AM

The disc art is awesome. so is the image inside the DVD case. Nice to know that some companies still put artwork on their discs. It's a pet peeve of mine when studios just use grey discs or the clearish ones with just a title.
