The Blu-Ray Upcoming, News & Info Thread

Just responding to my own post I think I seriously undervalued how incredible and important Basil Poledouris’ score is to Conan. It’s an opera in and of itself. The film wouldn’t be even a quarter good without it. I can’t think of another film where the music elevates the film to masterpiece.
The 4K is impressive too.

Escape From New York in my opinion is seriously overrated. Iconic sure. Music is great. But I have it to be a Carpenter completist. Again the 4K really belies how average the film is.

Witness is a masterpiece of subtly. I miss Weir. The 4K looks great but subdued. It looks film like. This is very common the small low budget eighties films can somehow look better in 4K than many top tier titles.

EFNY super weak movie with great aesthetics.

I prefer EFLA.

I kinda agree but KR as Snake makes it a classic

Yep. That shot is the worst thing I have ever seen in theaters. From the bad FX to the stupid idea of it all. Just and awful shot.

That scene rules. I freaking love that the VFX artists probably came to John and said "look it's not that we don't have the budget for this, but the technology doesn't even exist to make this look real no matter how much money we get" and Carpenter said, "so? the scene is in the script, we're doing it."

When or will “they” release the new FX series, “Shogun” on Blu-ray!?! That’s my biggest want.

The new release of Repo Man is fun to see. I get Criterion updates and was pleased to see this. It was a wonderfully fun movie back then.

I am in love with Ana Sawai.
