Moulin Rouge?

[Blade Runner]

Which version of Moulin Rouge will be the best in terms of extras?

I know the R4 comes out earlier but don't know if the features will be the same as the R1 5-star edition.

Anyone...

[Hendrik]

...ahh... well, apparently the R1 two-disc release will feature English and Spanish subtitles, whereas the Australian two-disc set will have no subtitles in any language, but will have a dts soundtrack, which the R1 set doesn't offer...

I've decided on the Region 4 cos it's a bit cheaper and I want to support the Australian economy so their $ doesn't drop further :D

The cheapest on Region 4 seems to be the Forums' sponsor www.fbo.com.au at around £15inc -with 3-4 day guaranteed shipping.

For the Region 1 it's www.absound.ca again at around £15 delivered.

It's a cracking soundtrrack CD so I hope the film's as good.

R4 is cheaper at devoted.com.au

I don't know about this one, I think I may get it but I think I will wait to closer to the time of the R1 release.

[Blade Runner]

Thanks everyone!

:)

Everywhere I look the R1 is listed as 1.85:1 and the R4 is listed as 2.35:1 :confused: Which is the correct version and why do they differ?

[Hendrik]

...well... "everywhere" may be dead wrong about that... the IMDb says the movie was filmed using ANAMORPHIC lenses, which definitely indicates AR 2.35:1...

Could it just be an error on the case of the R1 specification then. :confused:

I was under the impression that the R1 did have a DTS soundtrack. Anybody care to confirm?

Yes, perhaps image entertainment. See above ;)
