Interesting.

FNAC is a Import listing

 

[samdavies]

It's a import listing, not a french release.

 

[samdavies]

Now it's popped up on Amazon UK. Not live. Might end up being one of amazon's false listings from other regions/retailers. Have to wait and see.

It probably won't be a new transfer.

Of course it'll be a new transfer.. given there is no previous 4K HDR transfer. If you mean it'll be from the same scan used for the 2012 remaster, possibly not, assuming that was a 4K scan (I can't find any evidence to say it was).

WB are very good at providing fresh 4K DIs for films that have not had one previously, assuming they did not have a 2K DI.

Apparently James Camron is working on a new 4k transfer.

My mistake. I didn't pay enough attention to the title of the thread. I was thinking it was another Terminator 2 SteelBook.

So can we expect another waxy release to divide everybody?

Live with zavvi now. No artwork.

 

[Flloydo]

A lot of no artwork no release date pre orders at the moment for catalogue re releases. Sort it out

I can’t see it being as bad as the current T2 disc, but if Cameron has had a hand in this, I'm sure it'll urk some people.

Terminator remaster probably be like

I was also thinking about the recent releases of True Lies, Aliens and The Abyss.

I know that not everybody is happy with those.

Yeah not a fan of these PO's without knowing the art

I get most places don't charge until dispatch so no harm in putting orders in but if the artwork isn't ready just don't announce anything imo

Yeah it’s not the end of the world like you say everything is charged on dispatch but there seems to be a lot more lately. Inception, interstellar, nightmare on elm street etc
