Important — region codes

Most DVDs listed here are Region 1 (US & Canada compatible). Always check the product listing before buying — some imported box sets are Region 2 (UK) and require a multi-region player. Look for "Region 1" or "All Regions" in the product details. When in doubt, check the reviews.
