Memento R1 - RCE?

Horribly_Mauled (Competent) posted this on Wednesday, 29th August 2001, 10:02

Just curious... I know its not out til next week officially, but www.play247.com have it in stock now, and I`m wondering whether anyone knows whether this disc DOES carry RCE... have any of the more recent Warner`s carried it, or just the discs that first featured it (like the patriot) and then its fizzled out and web shops have to put the warning up `in case`.

By the way, I have a Wharfie 750 (with DTS logo, so I know it SHOULD be ok)

In anyone`s opinion, with that info, is it safe to go ahead and buy the film? Cos I really don`t want to wait til January for it if I can help it!

Dunno, but apparently the French R2 version has the option to watch the film "the other way round" - I think Westy posted about this a while ago, but I haven`t seen it confirmed on a site anywhere.

I preordered Memento a while ago from play247, and although it`s not released until 04 September (next Monday), it arrived this morning (Friday 31 August).

However, the DVD they`ve sent me is the Canadian release, which does have the watch-the-movie-in-chronologial-order feature, but none of the other features which the US disc is supposed to have (the US disc doesn`t have the chronological order feature though!).

Can`t help with the RCE thing, as mine plays RCE discs anyway, but the packaging doesn`t state RCE, but the US one is supposed to be RCE....

I`d probably wait until January and get the UK one with all the features if I were you! (I`m not sure whether to keep my Canadian one, or swap it for a US one. Anybody any ideas?)

Nightfilght - why don`t you ask Play if they can replace it with the US one? Comparing features on DV-Depot, which list both Canadian and US, it looks like Play are advertising the US version (same feature list and subtitle languages).
Personally, I don`t think the features look up to much, so I`m looking for a good price on a Canadian one - think I`ll email DVDImport and see whether they have the Canadian, as their price looks the best.

I thought about asking Play to replace it (the disc they`re now showing _is_ the US one, though technically I only ordered a Region 1 disc (not country-specific) and as that`s what I got they might not change it anyway....) but as the US feature seem a little iffy, and as I`ve been unable to find any other sites selling the Canadian version (all the Canadian sites I could find seemed to only have the US one, and even the company`s website as advertised on the packaging doesn`t even mention Memento anywhere), I`ve come to the conclusion that maybe I should hold onto it as a collectors` item....
