A 2046 Correction
Whoops ... a bit of a retraction here ... I posted a day or so ago that the listing for 2046 had disappeared from YesAsia and concluded from this that they'd been hit with a cease and desist order from the North American rights holders. Well, before you go cursing Fox Searchlight for going all Miramax I should tell you that I was a mite premature. The listing's back, they're accepting orders now, and they're cheaper than Layoyo. English subtitles are looking increasingly unlikely, though, as both the Layoyo listing and this one state that the film will only include Chinese subs ... if someone has heard otherwise from someone close to the source I'd appreciate hearing it ...
Anyway, the YesAsia 2046 Page is here. And, while you're at it, they're also taking preorders for Yesterday Once More - the latest from Johnny To - here.
**** UPDATE ****
A kind soul has just written in to say that Sensasian has just added the Hong Kong 2046 disc to their site and they say yes, there are english subs. Thanks Aaron!

i read something yesterday than i think was a reply to an email on the subject... it suggested that after the massive fuss over the listings showing no english subtitles that mei ah had rushed to get a subtitle track to include on the disc...

Either way, it'll be subbed, like it should have been in the first place. I don't know what Mei Ah was thinking.

koreandvds.com also says that the dvd will include english subtitles.

it's great to see that most sites, including yesasia, have started listing english subs for this dvd. my question: what's the difference between the regular and 2-disc editions? is it just a bunch of un-subbed extras, or is there anything on that second disc worth mentioning?
