just in case you can't get these films in ntsc from amazon.com you can oder from amazon.co.uk (some release dates are earlier in the uk, and some films are just plain cheaper there). Can't beat the price or quality.
We know it is out of stock - but any multi region (Pal + NTSC system) player should do fine. You should not have to pay more than $100 for it (with shipping).
