The Blu-Ray Upcoming, News & Info Thread

No deleted scenes in the extras listing, too.

TFA had a 3D release later. Since 3D is included in the initial release this time, maybe Rogue One will have the 4K release later with deleted scenes.

 

[Khev]

No 4k?

No Disney titles are 4K yet.

 

[KitFisto]

No Disney titles are 4K yet.

Typical of Disney. Milk every cent and then re-release, re-release and re-release.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

Official Rogue One steel book art (confirmed with Zavvi, Best Buy may have the same):

Sweet. Glad I got it ordered

True but Lucas was the same way.

Right now it looks like I'll be picking up the Target set.

 

[jye4ever]

Interchangeable covers.

The fold out K2SO head.

 

[Khev]

Rogue One will actually be the first live-action SW film in the history of the saga to allow the full theatrical experience as an official HD home release.

No official blu-rays for theatrical OT or PT.

No IMAX aspect ratio for TFA.

Not even TPM 3D.

 

[jye4ever]

That is really nuts when you think about it.

What do they mean with "two bluray"?

 

[Prime Clone]

No IMAX aspect ratio for TFA.

This one's stretching it a bit, as many (if not most) didn't see it in IMAX.

 

[Khev]

It doesn't change the fact that the blu-ray is still pan & scan for the millions who did.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I like the 3D disc with Vader's silhouette.

I will pick up the Best Buy disc. No preorder needed. They always have way too many.

Then it gets down to what you define as a "theatrical release". But we all have our "certain point of view".

 

[Khev]

Prime you're going to find that many of the aspect ratios we cling to depend greatly on which auditorium screen we viewed.

[jye4ever]

So was the "two bluray" wording in that spec release referring to 1 3D bluray and 1 2D bluray?

Or are there 2 blurays plus the 3D bluray.

 

[Khev]

Looking at the Best Buy discs and labels posted on the previous page it looks like one 3D blu-ray + two 2D blu-rays (movie disc and special features disc) + one DVD (lol.)

 

[jye4ever]

Oh that's right special features.

Can we have this like now!

 

[rushmore223]

I hope BB's Steelbook looks different, not too crazy about both of their steel Star Wars offerings. But very happy 3D will be released at the same time, just wish this set looked as nice as the 3D TFA set.

I only saw TFA and RO in 3D IMAX.
