Punch-Drunk Love
 

Apparently Paul Thomas Anderson's supervising the transfer of PDL on Blu-Ray. I haven't heard any release announcement on this title, but I guess we'll be hearing about it soon enough.

This will be in my collection, and I'll be waiting for his remaining 3 films to get the Blu-Ray treatment.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

I would really like a Sandler/PTA commentary on this. I know PTA stopped doing them at some point because people started taking the things he said in the commentary verbatim but I still think they could have an interesting discussion about the movie.

Has it listed as coming July 14th.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Oh cool... this was the first I've heard of this release. Usually I find out from posts on these forums, but I've never seen any mention until today.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Can't wait to pick up Punch Drunk Love if that date holds.

I'll be thrilled if I get all 3 of the "tentative" July titles that I want:

Chasing Amy
Go
Silverado

Other tentatives from later in the year I'd like would be:

Braveheart
Contact
Heat

I'd also be very disappointed if we don't get a Rounders release this year.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Yay.

I want all of PTA's films.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Me too. Including Hard Eight.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

I mentioned it a month or so ago. Hope Magnolia is soon!

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

i can not wait to pick this up, Adam Sandlers best acting performance, such a shame that like jim carrey before him in the truman show, that the academy was to shortsighted to nominate him for such an incredible performance.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

This is my second favorite PTA film after TWBB. I liked Hard Eight, didn't like Boogie Nights and utterly loathed Magnolia. PDL was a breath of fresh air after the 3 hours of misery that was Magnolia.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

I really want all of PTA's films on BD as well, but most have such nice packaging that I hate to give them up for generic blue cases. Still, pq is paramount, so I'll definitely upgrade.

Now, please, get on a Boogie Nights BD already!

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Oh come on, you know you loved

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Boogie Nights is up in my top five films of all times.

Please, please bring it to Blu-Ray!

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

So I guess PDL Blu-Ray fell off the face of the earth.

I've heard July... and then I've heard September.

Sony's site made no mention of it in their upcoming releases and Amazon has it listed with no date assigned to it.

I guess it's not happening now.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Looks that way. Tues came and went and I've heard nothing. Although I'd much rather see Boogie Nights this year (and even that is looking less and less likely) I really hope they re-announce this soon. PTA's films scream for hi-def.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Um, yeah, what the heck happened? This is one of my most anticipated Blu-ray releases. They really need to put this out along with Boogie Nights and Magnolia.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

We should be hearing something soon (I've heard Mid November for PDL)...also Boogie Nights and a Magnolia director's cut are coming to blu-ray soon..

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Any word on whether Magnolia will contain the theatrical cut also?

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

The theatrical cut of Magnolia WAS THE DIRECTOR'S CUT. PTA had Final Cut approval on that film.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Well, I'm presuming it's a scenario more like Blood Simple. It's been ten years and perhaps PTA just wants to tweak it.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Interesting. I don't see how he could make Magnolia better, but as long as both cuts are included I'm in.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

I can't remember the source but PTA stated he thinks Magnolia is a bit too long in parts and could understand the criticism directed at the film.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

I would prefer if they cut out Julianne Moore's storyline. That's my only criticism of the movie.

Re: Punch-Drunk Love
 

Cut out about an hour and a half.
