Children of Men (Region-3)
#26
DVD Talk Hero
I've already seen this three times in the theater (the 3rd time being an exceptionally clean print, making the movie look even better), so I can wait for the proper R1 dvd, which I'm assuming will have way more extras the this R2/3 - not to mention, better cover art...

BTW: plug for Tony at xploitedcinema. I placed my order on Friday....within 90 minutes it was boxed and shipped via USPS priority mail with tracking. That's pretty awesome service.

Yes, it's no secret that xploited is one of the best dvd vendors on the web - and while they don't necessarily have the lowest prices, they're never a rip-off.

When it comes to US vendors that provide a wide variety of titles and top-notch service Tony is the only game in town. There isn't another cult-vendor that can beat him.
As far as pricng goes sometimes he may be 2-3$ more but when you add in shipping (for example German, Italian, or Spanish product) he is 99% of the time cheaper. Add to that his OUTSTANDING service (and the fact that you would never get a "floater") and it is a pretty simple decision where to shop for imports.
As to the cover fiasco above: I don't find it funny at all, or picky for that matter, that people complain. I am also one of them guys: if the cover is poor and the design awful I look elsewhere. Even the Japanese cover above looks terrible.
As far as I am concerned it is ALWAYS worth it to pay a few extra $ and get a stylish classy release. I've said it for years.
Ciao,
Pro-B

When I cancelled my order on this same item they were very quick about it, it only took 2-3 days to clear in my account.

I am very pleased with the Sound and PQ of the R2 release. Loved the film....my wife was less impressed than I was. With only one 15 min doc as an extra...one would assume a big SE is planned down the road. Hopefully, it comes with the HD-DVD release mentioned by Universal. I will definately double dip with the HD release.
