I'm not sure what a Blue Ray player or HD is so I suppose the DVD would be OK, does this have Paint it Black on it?

it came out in North America in july. the european release date is sometime in october.
if your dvd player isn't region-encoded ordering the US version should work.

Vilhelm honey, someone else posted that the North American dvd is coded for region 1
and that salespeople are even saying it has some sort of "super regional encoding"
which is either BS or not super enough to stop it from playing on region-free players.

my question here is, is the sal in blue ray truly hi def. some older dvd's have been re-released in blue ray but are not true hi def. it has to be filmed with a hi def camera to my understanding, not just redone in blue ray.

I have a Blue Ray player as I have a Playstation 3, but haven't bothered with buying films etc as of yet. There seems to be a lack of choice and they're quite expensive.
I'll be buying it on DVD.

1. Yes, SAL in Blue Ray is indeed TRUE hi def. It looks and sounds exactly like it did in the theater.
2. A film does NOT have to be filmed on an HD digital camera in order to be hi definition. Take for example Led Zeppelin's The Song Remains The Same. Its a classic movie shot on FILM, not a digital medium. When it is produced on VHS or DVD, it is dumbed down from its original resolution. It has to be reduced in order to fit on the medium. With HD, the film looks as crisp, if not more detailed with better color and better sound than it did when originally released in the theater.

Blu-ray is nothing but a marketing scam as far as I'm concerned. Every few years they come out with something that has "higher resolution." I mean seriously, how high can the resolution get, and at what point does the higher resolution become undetectable to human eyes and ears? I can see and hear the DVDs I have now just fine, thank you very much.
