Absolutely loving the color and artwork on this.

Never even seen or heard of the film but I might have to get it anyway.

Now we need Monty Python and The Holy Grail, Brazil and 12 Monkeys to come out aswell

Terrific, I absolutly loved this Movie when I was young. Great that I did not buy any previous releases.

I already have the film on Blu Ray and and I was really dissapointed with it. The film itself is still good fun after all these years and well worth a place in my collection, but the transfer to Blu Ray was shocking for all the wrong reasons, so if there was ever a film crying out for a restoration then this is it.

So, I have a dilemma... Do I stick with my old version and imagine I still have a VHS player every time I watch it, or do pay again for a film I already own in the hope the restoration is to a standard to justify the cost?

Hmmm... That's interesting. I'm one step closer to clicking the "pre-order" button now, but still not 100% sold on the idea yet. Time will tell!

Thanks for the info.
