Region coded Blu Ray disks

[Count Steer]

Anyone ever had such a thing? I'm pondering getting Justified - City Primeval and it ships from the US. (I know the DVD is regionally coded). I've never seen regionally coded Blu Rays but I understand they exist.

(I use a PS3 as a disk player and I'm sure I could frig it but not THAT bothered and would wait rather than shell out the £25).

I'm pretty sure they are region coded. And looking on Wikipedia I'm more than pretty sure:

Cheers.

Hmm. 70% of them aren't but probably not worth risking the £25/having to mess about with the player. I'm sure they weren't in the early days. Hey ho.

I must admit I didn't imagine a Justified / Elmore Leonard tie-in, but then I've only seen the first episode of season one, so maybe it makes perfect sense?

Justified - City Primeval

Not worth £25, a tenner of fifteen quid maybe, it was OK but not up to the original series

The first episode (Fire in the Hole) was very much Elmore Leonard and it set the tone - snappy dialogue etc - for the rest of it. It sagged a bit for a couple of seasons but picked up for the finale. Walton Goggins was whenever he appeared.

I'll give it another go some time. I've missed out on many a good series through mood/circumstance/first impression etc.

* Just looked up 'Fire in the Hole' and I don't recall anything at all from the synopsis beyond the opening scene. Will give it another go
