^ wonder what the bluray version will be: 'film burn out' or 'channel flipping' ? oh wait, was that for 'Gremlins 2' ? Oh Warner's just release both.

I wonder if the new release will be just the theatrical version or if it will include both versions? I'm kinda pissed off about it, really, but I love the film so I won't complain too much.

I gathered it didnt' do that well theatrically (here in the states), but I'd give it a rent.

So happy about a Blu-Ray release of Grace

Caught the film at the San Francisco Film Fest this year and loved it.

Good to see that the disc will have (what looks to be) all of the extras that Paul Solet mentioned at Fangoria L.A this year. He said that he pretty much documented the entire process of filming Grace to be used for extras for the DVD/BD later.

Stop Making Sense! I hope they include both 5.1 mixes in lossless (though just the theatrical mix would be acceptable to me).

I was just wondering when we'd get some state-of-the-art CGI animation.

That Kong cover looks horrible and absolutely hilarious. Wow.

Same here. That's one of the first things I noticed.

I'm still wondering how Kong survived such a long fall from atop the Empire State Building.

...

and look, Aslan has a cameo

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York --> October 6th

Good news for those who've been waiting years for a reissue of this in 16:9, now getting bypassed straight to a Blu-ray release!

Haven't seen this in YEARS, I have to say the first one is one of very few films I enjoyed when I was younger that still holds up. John Hughes' last good movie too. I like it, a lot more mean spirited than the first but still good.

Thats awesome news, is it really not getting a new dvd release? I would rather buy it on dvd since I already own the SE of the first one on dvd. Hopefully there will be some new extras and another commentary from chris columbus and Macualy culkin.

GizmoDVD · 07-13-09, 10:54 AM

Found out about these 2 weeks ago but didn't want to post until we have 'confirmation' as not to upset some people with my 'zomg you hate Blu-ray and you lie'.

These have been delayed/postponed:
48hrs
Escape from la
The firm
The score
k-19

Thanks, Paramount!

KillerCannibal · 07-13-09, 01:49 PM

Shit. I was looking forward to both 48 Hrs. and EFLA.
