Woo Hoo!

It never came to the cinema in Holland, video store clerks just look at me strangely (but then most Cloggies do anyway) so I gave up and sulked.  No results searching on Kazaa.......not very popular I suppose.

Now a mate of mine has managed to find a copy!  Downloading it from him now, it's 692Mb and I'm getting it at 3kps.....gonna take about 3 days.


Anyone want a copy when I'm done?

See now, that would also require buying a DVD player and then finding a European distributer that sells the English version of the film or getting the player set to region free and ordering the DVD from the US.

I'm sure I'll get around to buying a DVD player at some point and when I do I'll prolly buy the film anyway, but right now this is the best option.

I bought the dvd.. you will like it. A very good size portion of the film is in English BTW so its light on the subtitles.

You guys don't even have a DVD player in your puter?  Dang dudes.. they cost about as much as a DVD.

The thought of someone watching that film in AVI is sad.

Well tell Wall Mart to open a branch in Holland then.  Dutch retailers havn't got the hang of customer service, ask a Cloggie store clerk if he can order the firmware disk to derestrict a region 2 player and he'll just lie to you to get you to go away and not make his life complicated.  

And if I'm gonna buy a DVD player it's GOTTA be region free so I can play US DVDs that are 1/2 the price of European ones.

EDIT:  Cheapest PC DVD player I can find is a Pioneer 106S at $57 (euro).  No mention of region codes but the Pioneer website doesnt seem to have a link to firmware downloads anyway so if it isnt region free there's no point.  Also tried searching DVD.com and a couple of European sites for DBW and got zero results.  Golly-geen I wish I lived in the US......

I bought the DVD to watch it as well.  It wasn't that great - slow moving, the characters weren't especially well developed or compelling, the plot was boring as hell and to top it off there weren't many flying scenes.  The ones they had were generally pretty uninteresting.
