I found it at Borders once. I would recommend Netflix if you just want to rent it.

Hmm, I'll have to check Borders out next time I go. As for Netflix, I don't have an account or anything so.... <_<

Yeah, I go to Best Buy all the time and that is the first store I checked. All they had was this super special edition that cost like 75 dollars.

What about a Kim's Video & Music shop, I went into two in New York years ago and they specialise in foreign film sections. Don't know if they are outside of New York though.

Never heard of that place; it might be confined to New York.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestions, I'll check out Borders and if all else fails I will order it online.

Some bad news:

Will Smith and Steven Spielberg are in talks to remake of the violent Korean drama Oldboy, says Variety.

The 2003 original follows a man who is incarcerated for 15 years without explanation. Upon his release, he goes on a revenge-fueled mission to seek out his captor. Oldboy is the second film in director Park Chan-wook's Vengeance trilogy, which includes Sympathy For Mr Vengeance and Sympathy For Lady Vengeance.

Spielberg, who has reportedly been looking for a project to make with Smith, is in the process of securing the remake rights for DreamWorks and hiring a writer for the project.

You know that Will Smith won't be chipping anyone's teeth out -.-

I don't see them keeping the twist in either.

dont hold your breath on that one. why remake a movie and completely change it? seems silly to me.

It's possible, they completely changed it for the Bollywood remake.

no they will change it, that was confusing on second glance there what i said. there's no way that they'll keep the twist in. i was just reflecting on how stupid it was to call it a remake and change it so drastically from the original and not keep the most important part.

Lame.

just read in a blog that Spielberg and Smith are planning to make a remake of "Old Boy"...

I haven't seen it yet in the original. But I will these days if I have time.

I just mentioned the Smith stuff above...

dont see him eating a live octopus either.

Well if it is based in America, then I don't see that happening anyway. 😛

whens the american one supposed to be coming out?

I don't think it's even started yet.

one disturbing movie.

Its been several years of seeing foreign movies, and this is still by far my favorite.

I bought this, it was ok....didn't like it as much as some of you did.
