MY BLOODY VALENTINE (1981) (Collector’s Edition)(toivottavasti Arrow ilmoittaa pian julkaisevan tämän myös),PET SEMATARY II (1992) (Collector’s Edition) ja SILVER BULLET (1985) (Collector’s Edition) tulee varmasti hankittua. Silver Bulletista omistan Saksan julkaisun, mutta lisä ekstrat kiinnostavat ja mahdollinen kuvallinen parannus. Aussi versiota en ole hankkinut. Fly Collection kiinnostaa, mikäli tarjolla on parannusta Fly 1986 kuvan laatuun. Hienoa on se, että Shout on saanut Paramountin leffoja julkaisuun.
Paljon odotetun jenkkijulkaisun, juuri edesmenneen Rutger Hauer -klassikosta SPLIT SECOND - Saalistaja (1992) noussee ? oletusarvoisesti toiseen potenssiin suhteessa aiempaan Saksa painokseen, sillä julkaisija on vihdoin vahvistanut masterin perustuvan uuteen 4K skanniin, joskaan itse lähdemateriaalista ei ole mainittu mitään vielä tätä kirjoittaessa. "The MVD Rewind Collection confirmed today that it is finalizing a brand new 4K remaster of Tony Maylam's cult futuristic action thriller Split Second (1992), starring Rutger Hauer, Kim Cattrall, Alastair Duncan, Michael J. Pollard, and Alun Armstrong. A Blu-ray release is expected to be announced later this year, but the label has not yet revealed a preliminary street date." "Synopsis: In a futuristic London, the rising sea levels mean that large areas are under feet of water. Hauer plays a cop who previously lost his partner to some strange creature. Now the creature is back and is after him. Soundtrack by Stephen Parsons and Francis Haines."
Olis vähän Godzilla-leffoja tulossa... Godzilla: The Showa-Era Films, 1954–1975 En oo näitä ikinä katsellut, onko näistä mihinkään? Rahantuhlaus kiinnostaa aina
Ensimmäinen on mielestäni loistava. Muita en ole nähnyt. Kunhan amazon pudottaa vielä vähän normihintaa (kuten kävi Bergman boxin kanssa) niin painan tilausnappia. Tätä boxia olenkin toivonut ja annan rahat mielellään.
^^Jippii Ihmisusi lontoossa Arrow:lta, viimein saanee arvoisena julkaisun! Description One of the greatest directors of the 1980s, John Landis (The Blues Brothers, Trading Places), expertly combines macabre horror with dark humor in the lycanthropic classic, An American Werewolf in London. American tourists David (David Naughton) and Jack (Griffin Dunne) are savaged by an unidentified vicious animal whilst hiking on the Yorkshire Moors. David awakes in a London hospital to find his friend dead and his life in disarray. Retiring to the home of a beautiful nurse (Jenny Agutter, Walkabout) to recuperate, he soon experiences disturbing changes to his mind and body, undergoing a full-moon transformation that will unleash terror on the streets of the capital… An American Werewolf in London had audiences howling with laughter and recoiling in terror upon its cinema release. Landis’ film has gone on to become one of the most important horror films of its decade, rightly lauded for its masterful set-pieces, uniquely unsettling atmosphere and Rick Bakers’ truly ground-breaking, Oscar-winning special makeup effects.

Tämä menee taas ostoon. Toivottavasti ne saa old-school John Woo leffat samanlaisessa pakettissa kanssa ulos ja pian.
Tuo menee ehdottomasti tilaukseen. Myin eteenpäin vasta äskettäin ostamani 88 Filmsin To Kill With Intrigue-blurayn, koska ei kuulu Chanin parhaimmistoon ja saan sen tossa boksissa takaisin, eikä jää ku vitonen välirahaa. Killer Meteors, Magnificent Bodyguards ja Shaolin Wooden Men puuttuvat kokoelmastani kokonaan, Aiemmin hankitut Snake and Cranen ja Hand Of Deathin brittijulkaisut säilytän ekstrojen ja kiinankielisten ääniraitojen takia.
Mun täytyy kyllä katsastaa enemmän noita Jackie Chan leffoja boksi #2:sta koska muutama #1 boksin leffoista rupesi tökkimään. Tosin muutamat olivat loistavia elokuvina mielestäni..
V: The Original Mini-Series Blu-ray ensimmäisiä arvosteluja: https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/V-The-Original-Mini-Series-Blu-ray/134530/#Review
Jackiella on se 100+ leffaa. Siihen mahtuu just noita My lucky stars- teoksia sekaan. Saisivat tosiaan katsoa vähän mitä noihin kokoelmiin laittavat
Ekassa boksissa ei kyllä ollut ensimmäistäkään Lucky Starsia. Tässä toisessa taas on seuraavat: Ainakin tuossa Hand Of Deathissa Jackie on vain sivuosassa, vaikka kyseessä toki onkin John Woon varhainen ohjaustyö.
Ensin katsoin että Second Sight ja mietin vähän vaikka on heillä laatujulkaisuja toki ollutkin (en niin tiedäkään muista heidän julkaisuistaan).. Mutta että David MacKenzie on enkoodaamassa! - > Lienee pakko-hankinta.
Vähän aina riippuu myös siitä keiden kanssa SS tekee yhteistyötä, mitä tulee lähdemateriaalin skannaukseen, masterointiin ja lopputuotannossa aivan erityisesti tietenkin kuvanpakkaukseen, josta David M. vastasi mm. heidän mainiolla The Changeling - Vaihdokas (1980) -julkaisullaan, näin vain yhtenä esimerkkinä. Davidin osallisuus tulevan Dawn of the Dead -klassikon tiimoilta on toki ollut yleisesti hyvin tiedossa jo alusta alkaen, mikä ainakin allekirjoittaneelle jo tässä vaiheessa edustaa tiettyä oletusarvoa lopputuloksen ylivertaisuudesta suhteessa elokuvan muihin kanssajulkaisuihin sekä konkreettista syytä julkaisun hankintaa ajatellen.
