You can order a copy and use DVDshrink to remove the region code. DVDshrink.org is the place to go get it.

Cool going to buy it soon!! U can use DVD43 program and watch it on your computer. It will take off the region4. What I'll do is make a backup and watch copy (region free) on home TV. I like to keep my originals untouched as much as I can.

# A Filmmakers Journey - Journey with Joss from Script to Screen (exclusive to Australian DVD)
# Joss Whedon Q&A Session - Filmed at Fox Studios in Sydney (exclusive to Australian DVD)
# Extended Scenes (exclusive to Australian DVD)
# Take a Walk on Serenity - Cast and Crew take us on a special tour of the Serenity ship (exclusive to Australian DVD)
# The Green Clan - Expose on Cinematographer Jack Green and his team (exclusive to Australian DVD)

Strangely enough, it is claimed that the German Special Edition will have those as well which seems to be highly unlikely (unless the term "exclusive" is somewhat stretched).

Funny, I was just thinking the opposite: there isn't a God because I'm living in the Netherlands, and God apparently loves the aussies the best. :)

I got my Special Tin on Pre-Order with EzyDVD.

If the Special features are Australian Exclusives they might not be released in any other country.

They could jsut be to make up for the huge lag time to the release in Australia.

EzyDVD is also offering a Competetion to win a signed(By Joss) Serenity poster. Now that would look Shiny in my room.

Thanks, mate! I ordered it. And I'll buy a new DVD player, if I have to. :)

you can use AnyDVD and/or DVD Shrink to just recode it and burn it onto a blank with your region code of choice.

Taken from http://www.serenitystuff.com

There’s also a limited edition German version of the Australian 2-disc set, which includes all of the previous plus Question & Answer Session, Extended Scenes, Take a walk on Serenity, and The Green Clan.

So, the Australian exclusive content seems to be not-so-exclusive after all. Still no details at Amazon.de though.

Italian Browncoat here.
In Italy we'll be having the same DVD version as our UK friends.
Only difference I think is in the cover art, it'll be reddish instead of blue.
I already have the US DVD but want to grab the Australian DVD.
Now I read about the German limited edition containing all extras as the Australian one...
I'm a bit confused, which one is the most complete?

Whoa...there's new stuff on the Australia DVD? Waahhh, no fair!

So, if I get the Australian dvd, will it play in my computer? I don't want to get a special DVD player just to play one dvd.

Okay, let's see...

(in order from least to most extras as far as I know)

- initial USA release
- UK release (= standard European release) (=standard Australian release)
- European Special 2 disc edition
- Australian Special 2 disc edition with tinbox etc.

In the case of Italy the "best" one should be the "European 2 disc special edition" (if you don't need that shiny lunchbox

)

Thanks for the explanation.
I tend for the Australian Special Edition, would like to grab the one with that shiny slipcase with the Serenity logo...
And shipping to Italy is usually very quick!
The special 2 disc edition in Europe is only for Germany right?

I don't know. I tried to look it up at Amazon Italy - but there is no Amazon Italy

(I don't know what other online shops you have over there)

No, there's no Amazon Italy.
The DVD will be released here on Feb. 22 and I've read in an article posted on an Italian Firefly Forum that our extras are the same as the UK DVD.
I highly doubt we'll get a 2 disc release later.
Serenity, sad to say, stayed in movie theaters only one week here. It was screened only in multiplex out of town (I live in Milano and the city is big and filled with movie theaters!None showed it!!!)
The Italian dubbing of the movie was awful, so for sure it's my interest to grab a V. O. edition.
I'll probably go for the Australian one.

Well, the email said:

"This delivery service generally varies between 5 and 14 business days."

Just got the same mail, see? :)

Shiny new discs!
