I love the beginning part when him and de Niro are watching the gun promos; "when you absolutely, positively have to kill every mother f---er in the room."

I couldn't wait and splurged on Pulp Fiction BD from Denmark, a big improvement over my SE DVD.

I just watched Jackie Brown again the other day. Great movie, great soundtrack. I probably won't bite on the BD right away, but I will someday.

Septemberish now. Disney has been disappointing on Blu-ray all year.

Im another who found it to be his weakest film so far but will still pick it up because its far from horrible but not as entertaining for me as his other films. Wish they would hurry up with his films on blu including KB.

re: Jackie Brown -August 4, 2016

For what it's worth, the Dutch release is fantastic and I think region-free.

Sorry man.
The weird thing is for some reason I remember seeing this and Pulp Fiction Blu-Ray's being on sale at Best Buy a while back, I even remember looking for them on the shelf that week.

re: Jackie Brown -August 4, 2016

For the Dutch version try http://www.axelmusic.dk/

Last year I bought Pulp Fiction BD there so they probably have Jackie Brown too. They provided me with a good price and pretty fast shipping. If I remember right I got Pulp Fiction in a week and a half or so.

The PQ and audio on Pulp is very good, but no extras at all.

That's where I got mine, as well as a bare-bones release of Se7en, last year.

re: Jackie Brown -August 4, 2016

Checked out the Jackie Brown DVD on my blu/upconverting player on a nice plasma 42 incher, and the DVD hasn't aged well. The PQ is pretty awful. Considering some other DVD's look beautiful on the same setup (Chinatown, for one), this film is beyond ripe for a Blu release.

That said, don't hold your breath. At this point, Miramax consists of a janitor, an intern, maybe a telephone and some dust bunnies. Disney has been unable to sell the name and library to anyone because they're asking for an exhorbitant price in a bad economy. You know they're being crazy when the Weinsteins (who have an emotional attachment to the name) offer up 650 million and still can't get a deal done.

Don't think there will be any movement on this or Pulp until someone buys Miramax.

Re: Jackie Brown -August 4, 2016

Just got this in the mail. While the BD picture quality is vastly superior to the SD, it's by no means a great image. As always with the older titles, the close up shots look the best. There are some noticeable dirt and film specs here and there. If you're thinking about order this import, I'd wait.
