Make your DVD Player Region Free

Here is a link you can check to see if your DVD player is region free!

Or you can get yourself a multiregion DVD player if you are in the US.

Here are some other options thanks to Kat :))

There is the option of buying a DVD player that you can change the code on....the one I bought was about $70 or $80 at Best Buy and the guys at the store told which one to buy. There is the option to buy one off of Amazon for about $50 + shipping and I think there are ones that you have to change the code on and others you don't.

There is also the option to download a free software on your computer called VLC. You would d/l it and set it as your default media player. http://www.videolan.org/ It *should* work and it should allow you to watch movies as often as you want. I would recommend people d/l it first and try a dvd they already have to make sure it plays (some computers may have codec or driver issues...you never know) If putting the DVD in and it doesnt start up right away...try opening VLC first and then the opening DVD....
I have never had an issue with it (watched BMH on it)

From MaryAnn:

From Tina:

here is a link to a software that lets you get rid of the region code on your DVD. Then you make a copy for your DVD player

There is a free 21 day trial period.

    my niece from London brought me "The Haunted Airman" on their visit few days ago.
    He was an top A-actor in that film. He is just good, excellent actor. Any director who'll watch that film would see a really great actor in the making, huge huge talent in Robert Pattinson.

    Thanks for posting.

    My mate ordered Twilight for me from amazon and it was not shipped because they were waiting to send her a bunch of stuff together.

    Has this happened to anyone else?

    PattyCullen:
    if you have any of the major credit cards, amazon (Uk or Us) accepts them - - you can only directly via internet.
    amazon is very reliable.

    Yeah, when I ordered Twilight, I ordered a bunch of old DVD's and I had to wait for them a few month's becouse they shipped everything in one box.. I had to wait becouse of Twilight.. It's cheaper.

    So, If you order Hot To Be and Little Ashes in one package, you'll have to wait till august.. :) Or pay a bit more if you are not in UK ;)
    ..as far as I know..

    just a little perspective on how an intelligent person Robert Pattinson is.
    I was watching with my bf this ridiculous movie "The Punisher - the melt zone" or something like that (being a supported gf, i sat through the whole miserable guy-thing movie), but the whole time I was thinking "what horrible actors in a horrible movie! Geez, Robert Pattinson was looking for an acting job before Twi and I bet you he would not even consider auditioning for this type of movies no matter how hungry he is"
    His very few films so far are very intelligent choices.

    I can't wait to see How To Be. I think Rob is the CUTEST with his long hair and little indie rocker clothes. Can't wait!

    My DVD wont run those here in Brasil... Rats! I am still waiting for the "local" amazon... Things are always too slow down here.

    Hey, Rob, lover, I really want to get all your movies, but, in the meantime, you COULD come "down here" and do your thing... couldn´t you? Come on, man, come here and do "your thing"!! For us?
