Still no info about a release date (only Australian)? Somebody else has some info maybe?

I contacted Splendid here in Germany, but no true reply, unless you count an automatic one. :rolleyes:

I also contacted Splendid (in Holland). They told me that they really want to buy Absolution because they released every Seagal movie of the last 5 years. But there still is no deal with the licensor. They will keep me informed.

Strange that he's clean-shaven on the cover....Oh well? :)

Is the UK getting a Blu-Ray release?

I doubt that whoever makes these covers even bother watching the movies, heck, I wouldn't be surprised if the distributors even won't watch them.

"What is it, a Steven Seagal movie? Just put him on the cover holding a gun and photoshop some exploding helicopters in the background and we're good to go."

IMO that is not a good cover at all. That is a very unflattering picture of Seagal as well.

The UK distributors of these DTV movies usually put out the best covers, but not this time unfortunately.

I don't mind the cover, if only the background were a different colour (as it's pretty much the same colour as Seagal's face) So (the casual punter) mightn't actually notice it on the DVD shelves?

For a brief spell, the UK were getting the Seagal releases earlier than most countries and on both formats (DVD/Blu-Ray) but of recent, the distributors (Studiocanal) have been a bit hit and miss regarding dual formats. The last few TRUE JUSTICE mini-movies and A GOOD MAN have been denied BD releases :(

I can't remember, but is Absolution a Voltage Picture production? If so, it's about time that they update their website...:rolleyes:
