Anybody knows something about a Blu Ray release coming someday?


That would be so great.

Yeah, you're talking about the french release, right? ;-) But of course i meant a US release! If anybody knows something, it would be much appreciated.

I'm not sure, I have English audio sooo... and I got it from Amazon.com.

??? Seriously? Because when i search amazon (or google btw), i can't find any trace of a US-BLU RAY release.. Are you sure we're talking about the same movie? Haha..

Look at the cover of your Blu Ray, is it written all in english, or is it "Ghost Dog: Le voie du Samourai"?

Okay I just checked and it's the French BR release but the thing is it has English 5.1 Audio so id doesn't matter does it? I mean you can get it on Amazon and all so I don't think there's a big difference between the french release or a US release.

Sorry if I got your hopes up and then disappointed you :(

Ah ok, well i guess i have to go with the french release for the moment.. i like my whole collection to be in US format only.. Still, better than no Blu Ray at all i guess ;-) thanks anyway!

The French release is awful:

-forced French subtitles when you select the English audio track
-1080i50 transfer
-image quality is average at best for a blu-ray

For me, the deal breaker was the 50Hz transfer, which means all of the excellent music in the movie is playing 4% too fast. No thanks.
