We don't know what a "verion" is.

I got mine from Canadian Amazon (amazon.ca)

This one looks like the same one they're selling, but I can't be sure. I can tell you that it's not the dreaded shitty Brazilian one, though.

I think it's the Canadian version, so I would say yes, buy it.

That is the good version, by Network, essentially the same as the Canadian Atlantic Alliance release (ie good sound, widescreen) That one is in Pal,which is generally the format used in Europe, the Canadian in NTSC, used throughout the USA. So make sure you get one your dvd player can play.

The difference between the formats is complicated - but I think the gist is that NTSC plays closer to the correct speed of the cinema version but is slightly lower resolution, Pal is higher res but plays slightly faster so that the audio has a slightly squeakier sound quality. Or something like that.
