underrated steel, one of zavvis best if you ask me.

With Arrow Video releasing Withnail and I on blu ray with a new 2K scan from the original camera negative
with new extras in 2014

You can expect good extras and usual booklet
I wonder will they be releasing a steelbook version


I paid full price for Zavvi StudioCanal version when it came out
Fantastic looking steelbook but no extras and picture quality is not great
I will end up getting the arrow release as I know it will be better

The steelbook is fantastic but its contents is poor quality some of you may disagree but its only a slight improvement of the dvd and with no extras was poor blu ray release
It was Just was StudioCanal getting rid of there stock of Blu-ray and dvd copies
That might have been the reason why there was poor sales

I myself don't want steelbook releases that are just excuse for a distributor to offload there remaining stock and release poor quality blu-ray with no extras and also use the steelbook to get rid of dvd stock

It great when we get a great looking steelbook that contains a Blu-ray with best picture quality and includes all extras
That what I want from a steelbook release

^^ Bargain price that is.

I bought this on release day and i dont regret paying full price. If you dont have this in your collection you must buy it at this price.

Gorgeous steel.

 

[Jango]

steel collectors are crazy that this isnt sold out yet.

Finally

Finally I pulled the trigger on this - no idea what I was waiting for beforehand (oh yeah, probably for me to get it for less than 5€ using some points ). Very happy now!!

Classic film and you can't really argue at that price!

At £5 with my 10% voucher i think i got no option but to buy.

My favourite film. Shame on the world for not buying this up!

 

[frankfish44]

Perhaps the reason this hasn't sold out is because the film doesn't appeal to most out there. However wonderful a steel is, I am not going to purchase it if I have no interest in the movie. Even at this price, for me personally its a pass. We keep seeing these niche titles not selling out because I believe the buying pool is small.

I think it's great that more obscure or left field titles get the Steelbook treatment and I'd much rather watch a film like Withnail than all the mainstream, Michael Bay, Jerry Bruckheimer crud that gets released.

Will this work on Region A machines? (Region Free?)

 

[Jericho]

Will this work on Region A machines?

I'm fairly certain its region locked. Had to use the ole region free player.

Yep it is B locked.

 

[levi]

yeh, its a very british film. it doesnt attempt to appeal to a wider audience at all, which is what i think makes it so great.

 

[Towser]

Is this still the poor transfer previously reported or has it been done properly now?

This is the newer of the two poor transfers! Still worth picking up though, especially for £4.99!

Arrow Video are releasing it at some point this year with yet another new remaster, and if it's true to their current form then it should be the one to get (as well!).
