Re: Amazon.com Discounts and Deals on Blu-ray
Some good deals here. I finally upgraded my VHS Natural Born Killers and was waiting on a good price for Across the Universe so I bit. Threw in Rambo for the Super saver shipping. Not bad for $30.
Thanks for the heads up! |
Re: Amazon.com Discounts and Deals on Blu-ray
Ooh, nice. I've been waiting for 3 years for Letters from Iwo Jima to drop to something reasonable.
Edit: F that. Best Buy has it for $7.99 this week. Woohoo! |
Re: Amazon.com Discounts and Deals on Blu-ray
Hey man...it takes a lot for me to upgrade a DVD to BD. I want it cheap if all I'm getting are pretty much the same features...now Apocalypse Now (TC and Redux) on BD W/ Hearts of Darkness....$41.99 + it's OAR...well worth the tag.

...both cuts of Apocalypse Now will be presented in the original theatrical aspect ratio of 2.35:1. The framing of Apocalypse Now has been the object of a long controversy. The film was shot on Super Technovision (anamorphic 35mm), which has a projected aspect ratio of 2.35:1 (actually, 2.39:1). However, all of the DVD releases of the movie have been in a modified aspect ratio of 2.00:1. Back in 1999, two of the producers of the movie confirmed that it was cinematographer Vittorio Storaro's decision that "for home video + broadcast, he would transfer the film with a slightly modified framing: 2.0:1." Hence, this BD release of Apocalypse Now is the first release (including the LaserDisc) to sport the original theatrical aspect ratio. |
Re: Amazon.com Discounts and Deals on Blu-ray
.......AN is being released in it's OAR....both of them.
via AlwaysOAR in the AN HD forum..but originally from The Digital Bits Now then... IGN has confirmed our news from a few days ago, that Lionsgate's Apocalypse Now will be coming to Blu-ray Disc on 10/19. There will be two versions - a 3-disc Full Discolsure Edition (SRP $59.99) and a 2-disc Two Film Set (SRP $39.99). Both the 1979 Theatrical Cut and the Redux version will be included, and here's the great news: Both will presented at their original 2.35:1 aspect ratio, with DTS-HD 5.1 Master Audio. (We've confirmed this - it's no joke. None of this reframed 2.1 "Univisium" crap of previous home video releases. You'll get the CORRECT original theatrical aspect ratio.) More than 9 hours of bonus material will be available. Both versions will include A Conversation with Martin Sheen (interview by Francis Ford Coppola), An Interview with John Milius (interview by Francis Ford Coppola), the Complete Francis Ford Coppola interview with Roger Ebert at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival, the Monkey Sampan "lost scene", additional scenes, the "Destruction of the Kurtz Compound" end credits with audio commentary by Francis Ford Coppola, The Hollow Men (video of Marlon Brando reading T.S. Eliot's poem), 8 featurettes (The Birth of 5.1 Sound, A Million Feet of Film: The Editing of Apocalypse Now, The Music of Apocalypse Now, Heard Any Good Movies Lately? The Sound Design of Apocalypse Now, The Final Mix, Apocalypse Then and Now, The Color Palette of Apocalypse Now and PBR Streetgang), the Ghost Helicopter Flyover sound effects demonstration and The Synthesizer Soundtrack article by music synthesizer inventor Bob Moog. To this, the 3-disc Full Discolsure Edition will add a 48-page collectible printed booklet (with special note from Francis Ford Coppola, never-before-seen archives from the set, behind the scenes photos and more), a John Milius script excerpt with Francis Ford Coppola notes, a Storyboard Gallery, a Photo Gallery (with images from photographer Mary Ellen Mark), a Marketing Archive (of trailers, TV spots and promotional artwork)... AND the acclaimed Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse documentary (including optional audio commentary with Eleanor and Francis Ford Coppola). And here's something that hasn't been revealed anywhere yet but we've officially confirmed it here at The Bits: Hearts of Darkness, which was originally filmed in 16mm, has been scanned in HD and will be presented in full 1080p on Blu-ray! (Look for it to appear in its original 1.33 aspect ratio.) The Full Disclosure Edition will also be packaged in a keepsake case featuring archival poster images designed by Japanese artist Eiko Ishioka. |
