Play.com dont even have it listed, and amazon.co.uk have it slated for the 27th of feb!

but why the delay? by nit making it a UK XMAS release, its going to hurt sales here.

anyone know why the delay, when the US get in in 3 days time?

We have Firefly already! Surely you mean Serenity!? I can wait as much time as I need to, just so long as I get it eventually I'm happy.

You'd be better off waiting until then Aussie edition comes out which is a 2 disc version with extras that neither the UK or US edition will have. Why do they do this to us? More money I suppose!

We almost always get DVDs months after the USA get them. What's your point? We were damn lucky to get the movie in cinemas just a week after the Americans, I think we can wait a little for the DVD (and more features yay!).

As you seem to have missed my point, ill say it again.

It only going to hurt sales, and since the film was only a week after the USA, as you have pointed out, I would have expected the DVD to be the same. I was just a little disapointed to see its going to be 3 months after.

hopefully that clears things up abit.....

Of course, now Serenity won't be competing with SWIII and other blockbuster DVDs for Xmas. Hopefully February is a slow month in the UK for DVDs and Serenity gets the shelfspace it deserves.

Ah, but there is the "I'm in the United States and I've got to get one of those UK versions" sales factor. And look the Australia version has a Collectors tin.

Does the UK version have a collectors tin?

Also will I be able to play the UK and Australia version on my DVD player? Read stuff about Region DVDs.

Wonder when the everything from every different version Serenity DVDs will come out.

Hmmm, I suppose they could come out with DVDs with a different actor on each cover. Like the comic book. 9 versions.

So how many versions are there going to be?

I think Gossi wrote somewhere that someone at Universal said they will only make a Serenity 2 if Serenity becomes an International DVD Best Seller. I guess Universal is trying!

Bingo.

It's worth noting Australia is getting the DVD in February - but they were the first country in the world to open the movie.

The UK are getting some extra content the US isn't getting.
