Awesome. This movie just came out here today in the States, but I've already got it on pre-order from Amazon UK. Saw it last month at a preview, followed by a Q&A with Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. This is a very entertaining movie, and I'll be happy to see this DVD in the post!
nice extras, great covers.
I want the HD-DVD but I'll probably but this to tie me over.

This movie is out in theaters today! Those guys are brilliant!!
I gotta still go see this in theaters, but I hope R1 gets this sweet dvd (preferably with the 2nd cover).
Oh God I can't decide between the first two covers!
I prefer the second cover. I was gonna wait for this to come down in price, but a look at those extras means I will be getting it straight away! Great film, Really funny. Hope it does well in the US this weekend.
I also hoped that the extras would have the guys video diary form their US promo tour.

Cannot wait to watch this in a couple of hours!!!Loved Shaun of the Dead and English humor.Python 4 Life!I the first two designs.The last one is strange.
Just got back from seeing it. It is bloody, and I do mean bloody, brilliant. Right now I'm thinking it is equal do SHAUN OF THE DEAD, if not a little better. Wright/Pegg/Frost have come up a new kind of parody film...one which is aware of the conventions of a particular genre, one that gently mocks those conventions & beats but also one that can stand on its own as part of that genre. The movie is a big smile from start to finish and a who's who of Brit comedy although it should be noted Timothy Dalton walks off with the film every time he is onscreen. I'll be picking up the R2 when it comes out and I'll be seeing the movie again in a few days.
These covers will be retail exclusives
I know this because HMV will have an exclusive. Which one i dont know yet but its true i tell thee!

I love all the covers, but the second one is the best. Cant wait to see this as i loved Shaun of the Dead.
Loved this movie so much that I'm actually gonna pay the $35 to have it imported to the US from Amazon.uk. Does anyone know of a cheaper website where I can get it from the UK shipped to the US for lower than $35? If so please let me know. I have nothing but praise for this, but still not as good as Shaun.

Don't know much about those cheapest sites on the list; Amazon UK and Sendit.com are both great. (And remember that Amazon's listed price includes the VAT, which is removed in the checkout process.) Seeing this tomorrow, ordered it tonight... :-)

Thanks for that!
Packed as usual, I hope I can get it in a double-pack with Shaun of the Dead.
Argh I wanna see this. It just came out today in Canada and US.
Wonder if we will get on the "outtakes" section, as there was at least one amusing mishap caused by us during the filming of the Somerfield shootout.
It was a blast to be a part of, and who wouldn't want to get paid for throwing meat-cleavers at the police?

Wow, now this is how a DVD should be released!!!
I'm going to see this tomorrow in the theater, but if I like it (and I expect I will...) I'm ordering this!
Oh, and I like the second cover

I never got round to seeing this in the theatre (it was released a few months back) so will have to check out the DVD. I've yet to see Shaun of the Dead too, this appeals to me more.
Very good and recommend UK e-tailors are:
www.play.com - One of the best
www.cd-wow.us - More international than UK, .com is their UK site
www.dvd.co.uk
www.sendit.com - A bit pricey really
www.choicesuk.com
www.blahdvd.com
www.amazon.com - A bit pricey really
I don't know if they knock VAT off or ship to the USA though. CD-WOW offer free postage from and to anywhere in the world but some don't.
You'll have no troubles with any of that lot.
And the rest:
"Bensons World" can be good value but usually aren't and I've been messed around by them a couple of times so wouldn't recommend them. I hear "Foxy" are good but have never used them and the likes of:
Asda - Owned by Wallmart
Tesco - The British Wallmart, soon to be in the States
Sainsbury - Another supermarket
Woolworths - General store
Are also reliable but usually have pants prices. "HMV" is a music store like "Tower Records" and again reliable but again usually rubbish prices.
"101CD" are also reliable but again usually poor pricing.
The rest are very small companies and I've barely heard of them.
p.s - It's nice to see British films going down a storm in The States, a market not easy to break.

Great specs there... Although Simon Pegg did say that the region-1 dvd will include footage from the Us tour.
Ok I saw it.Best comedy of the year and definitly best cop/action film spoof.Cannot wait for it on Region 1.The second artwork is my fav."Yeah, motherf**ker!," that about sums it up.Loved all the movie references,especially the Woo ones.
Oh yeah I'll be picking this up for sure. The second cover is the best.

S**t, I knew I'd forget to look for you!

I was in Harry Potter if anyone cares.
True story.
True story.
No, nobody cares Nic.
...unless you've got a screen capture.
And Wilsons, I can picture you guys now, of course. There were just so many cameos and Spaced and Shaun of the Dead references I was overwhelmed.

I want to see this. It was in limited number of theaters in the USA (825 screens), but it still managed to come in at number 6. The extras sound cool. I love the first two covers. Hopefully Universal in the USA will use one cover as a slip cover and the other as jacket art.
Ah, the Wilson Brothers!! Nice to know...
Hot Fuzz has performed FAR better than they expected - Universal are probably kicking themselves that they didn't give it a wider release...

I guess you guys will be getting freebies of the DVD in advance?
