Hmm. Do I need this?

Better than the steelbook set I have to be honest

Better than the steelbook set I have to be honest

Which one? The zavvi one with variant 2 steelbook, the debossed one. Was awesome.

 

[Flloydo]

Was really looking forward to this but that’s pretty boring

You’re joking right?

I like this better. That grey slipcase and grey steelbook started to bug me. The steel debossing on the gun is great but it needed the red slipcase. I didn't click with either of those, except the excellent red slipcase.
I picked up the older blu ray steel of Inglorious Basterds too, which in my opinion is the best of the lot.
Next to Manta. Which I'm not paying for.

I got rid of the Zavvi 4k set a while back. I'll happily pick up this and keep the old blu ray steel.

 

[TheWildEye]

You’re joking right?

Nope
That set is dull man. Except the red slip and the debossing on the gun.
The grey slip is weak.

 

[TheWildEye]

The older Blu Ray steel is in my opinion the best steel. I don't have the 4k steel anymore, moved it on, so I'm happy to grab this.

 

[JinxyKatte]

I'd be more tempted if we got an arrow release for all Tarantino. Would be reall nice to have a matching set.

Kill bills and Jackie brown seem to be rumoured atm too. But not arrow.

@paulboland do you know if this is a new 4k transfer over the older one?

I believe Arrow did a new one for Waterworld and Silence of the lambs and they were both significantly better.

Same 4K transfer with brand new audio commentary but as usual arrow do their own disc encoding

The Blu-ray extras disc also has new extras that was not on Universal release

Just read a post on reddit saying it's gonna be a new transfer. If it is I might be inclined to get it now.
