Thanks.

Leon is supposed to be released here sometime soon. It was mentioned in the announcements thread. I'll import it if it's the director's cut, region free, and the subtitles aren't forced.

In some cases I wonder if the subtitles are already forced on the print they are transferring from, meaning they will be "forced" no matter what.
If it plays in Region 1 and has an English track (and no American release in sight) I'll order that. Going to do the same for Gremlins and Goonies as well.

Alain Corneau's remake of Melville's classic LE DEUXIEME SOUFFLE a.k.a Second Wind (2006) is set to be released on Blu-ray in France/Monaco on November 27th. Nominated for 3 Cesars. Preliminary specs indicate lack of English subs (similar to the SDVD)
