Barmy film, absolutely brilliant. I actually said "****ing hell" at one point during the movie, because i was so tense. Bloody brilliant.

 

[Gaveecho]

Blind buy for me, heard so many good things about it I couldn't pass on it.

Hope this one use not the same transfer as US release. US transfer is horrible

To be honest, I don't see why it wouldn't be. Sony aren't known (as far as I'm aware) for releasing new titles with poor transfers.
If it was filmed in a low budget manner, then the transfer will match this. Not much that Sony (or in the UK case, Momentum) can do, but to replicate the way in which it was filmed.

Have you seen Blade Runner the final cut there is plenty they can do, in this day and age transfers 30+ years old can be improved they just can't be bothered. How do we know what the transfer will be like, is anyone on the inside track? Awesome steelbook and awesome movie, so i'm happy.

 

[cooey]

Not really too bothered *how bad* the transfer is, I just can't wait to see it!

Having just watched the Hunger Games, this is my most anticipated release of the year.
