The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Hey Neworder!

No news as such on Europe's release of #11. I can imagine the release dates will be pretty much the same as last year. The UK's arrival will be likely to be around mid-September time (DVD region 2) and I'm sure the rest of Europe will be anything up to a month afterwards (Region 3). That's the way it normally works out. I have a few links I'm tapping into but no leads yet...might need a little while longer for them to update their resources.

If I find out anything...I'll let you know.  ;)

No probs Neworder!

Erm...in actual fact you're right about the DVD regions! My bad on that one! :rolleyes: Europe is now Region 2 as is Japan, Egypt and South Africa but still, coz of the format translations, the rest of Europe tend to get US released articles, DVDs etc a couple of week after the UK. This may have changed also in recent times but that's how the previous few launches worked.

Here a link to Amazon that shows the different DVD regions. Might be helpful for future reference

I got LBT  11 from USA. I couldn't be bothered to wait again for almost 9 months for LBT 11. it is sooooo annoying they take so long to let it be put in other regions while other films it another story...

OK...got info from Play.com that the European release of LBT 11: Invasion of the Tinysauruses has been announced for the 19th of Sept '05. This is region 2 I'm talking about but I'm not sure if that is just for the UK coz play.com is a UK based site for Movies, Games and Videos etc.

Pencil it into your diaries LBT fans ;)

With most people opting to get region free players these days, I'd say the companies that sell only the region 2 dvd lose more money because of such a long waiting period when it's remarkably simple to just buy another region and watch it nine months sooner..
