Biodom sent in some links for various French online retailers of movies, each still
featuring the Blu-Ray edition of Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters 2, and all still posting an October 8th release. Not much should be read into this, since the release of films in North America is completely separate from their release overseas – their system of distribution pre-dates the Internet, so you were never supposed to be able to compare plans for release in one country to plans for release in another. Which is to say, Sony appears to be setting up 2009 as a big year for Ghostbusters, but its distribution partners abroad are still proceeding as planned (as is their right.)
Those of you that hate the green slime motif of the previous DVDs, get ready – not only does it persist in the French edition of the Blu-Ray, but they even come with extra slime!
[UPDATE] For those wondering about the North American release, to clarify, since Comic Con it has looked like Sony was opting to hold back the Blu-Ray release until next year, to maximize exposure alongside sales of the video game. No official word on when that will be, though Summer dates have started to pop up for the video game.
Does anyone know when the GB blu-ray is comeing to the US? I thought it was near the end of October, but I can’t find it for pre-order on websites.
Any language track details? It may be worth importing…
Well, english and french track will be on this release so…Perhaps there will have german track, like on the french DVD…
Brandon – have patience. Save your cash.
I do hate the slime and the extra slime….Egon here´s your…….jaja
It’s seems there will also have some cards, like the Venkman’s one in the first movie…
BOOOOO to green slime. Is anyone out there from sony listening?? Make it black!!!
