No. 48fps 5K.

Wonder if they’ll release it in that format?
The only disc I know like that is Gemini Man.

It’s the same old story. Throw the half decent theatrical poster art in the bin and get the work experience kid to have a bash. Fortunately it seems work experience kid has wisely decided to forgo the popular blood splatter effect... oh hang on wait a minute, he’s only gone and replaced it with creamy spunk droplets instead. Lord give us strength!

Nope, they won't. 48fps is not compatible to 60fps, except via pulldown (which would make it rather ugly).

Looking at the steels, is it me or did they go for the Grand old Duke of York, he had ten thousand men, he marched them up to the top of the hill, and he marched them down again

Question is buy these soon, or wait to middle of next year and see what the ultimate collection is and obviously how much? Decisions...

Anyone know if WB use decent packaging for boxsets like this? Zavvi will probably just put it in a massive box (massive jiffy bag?) without any padding so I'm a bit wary of ordering from them!

 

[Miffed]

Does anyone know if using PayPal when warner bros takes payment? Is it straight away like I think HMV does or close to release?

Last time I used PayPal for a pre-order with them they took payment a couple of weeks before the release date.

Fairly sure WBshop do not accept PayPal payments for preorders anymore. In stock items only.

REDDIT has been working recently and there's the standard rcvip. Both for instock only, so may get them to work if you're quick!

Why is the MGM logo on these? They had nothing to do with these films... shoddy

(I know, I know, there’s no “save x amount” so it’s an error that’ll get adjusted. I know.)
