completely OT UK DVD's

[karenL]

I've been looking for the last movie to complete a collection
It's off the market, the estate refuses to allow any further release
I've found a new copy in England, I'm assuming this will not play in my American DVD player and American tv
am I correct?

If will play on an american tv but not an american DVD player.

There are a number of hacks you can find on line to allow your dvd player to play PAL and NTSC video's though.

it depends on the dvd player some play all region dvds

I buy BBC DVD's a lot and have no problems. On my computer though I always have to find new players and new codecs to get things to play but not regular DVDs.

If it were me and I wanted it real bad I'd buy it, and use a dvd copy program like dvd shrink and strip off all regional locks. then I'd copy and burn it.

the DVD is PAL, I guess I should check a few of my DVD players
or buy a new one
this copy costs about $60-70 less than the copy I passed on before I found out about the film being pulled of the market

What film is it? O)

 

[karenL]

Lech Kowalski's film Born to Lose
I'm sure I have almost all the footage but I do NOT have the movie
I'll make sure the kids will be at sleep overs when I get this movie

Kids on a sleepaway???? DVD comes in a plain paper wrapper??? lol

Johnny Thunders strikes again....

aiko-have you made out on that "hot front red velour seat in your new pimp mobile yet?"

back on OT. is your tv rather new and/or european made? if so, you can program it so that it excepts u.s. discs. i can call my cousins in spain on how to do it.

When you make a back up copy...upon rewriting the DVD you indicate USA version 1 on the burn. good to go then.

 

[karenL]

Thanks everyone
I'm going to order it
I'll attempt to rewrite it in the USA version
just the cover alone would be too cool
DeeDee Ramone is interviewed in it and he's just too much at that stage of his life, but I have that interview already
What I don't have is Stiv Bators
almost everyone in that film is dead
I'm hoping the fight between Spacley and Thunders is clear
I just have to see Thunders attack him with his Les Paul, and then see Thunders thrown across the stage with 1 hand
