Probably grabbing this, Close Encounter, and Aladdin. Crazy movie

 

[ihategiantspiders]

Damn this addiction, already own the U.S. digipack but that gloss is too tempting. Pre-ordered!

 

[Cookster1]

Who said collecting SB's is addictive ?,my bank account has never looked this bad

 

[demon666]

How can I NOT order this??? this is a beautiful looking steel

 

[townterrier]

£50 code didn't work for me, but the £40 code did, thanks!

 

[manfromdelmonte]

got the us digibook but have ordered this as well

 

[Hep]

Wow, this will look incredible!!!

 

[Outlaw1986]

Is this likely to be region free?

 

[Bluprint]

I know this is one I will be blown away buy even more in person!

 

[RuthlessViper]

This is definitely going to be a stunning steelbook. I've had this on preorder since the day I saw it went live.

 

[Blu Nick]

Is this likely to be region free?

Yes, it's a Sony back catalogue title so it'll be Region Free.

The previous releases were Region Free too.

 

[Scarface]

yep this has the potential to be one of the best of the year imo, classic movie with a premium finish.

 

[TakingYoSteelz]

it doesn't really look white to me but I would get a order in quick once it goes live cuz I doubt these will be about for long, plus the sunglasses are embossed which is nice.

The concept art in this post looks really great, but the actual Zavvi picture looks dull. I've pre-ordered but will cancel if it doesn't end up looking like the concept photos when we see actual pictures!

+1 Zavvi's version is much greyer and darker as compared to the pic in the OP? Hopefully it'll come through alright?

 

[Slinchafi]

I'm still on the fence about this one. While I enjoyed the movie, I don't think I'd want to watch it again anytime soon.

Any ideas whether this will contain the new "mastered from 4k" transfer or the existing one?

 

[Ricker]

Is this movie any good? A lot of great actors.

On Zavvi's page under the description, it says this " film is presented on Blu-ray for the first time following an extensive 4K digital restoration and remastering," so I assume it is the 4k transfer.

They say the same about the 2011 amaray release.
