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.

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!

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

Fortunately no must haves for me although 48 hours and The Firm would be eventual purchases

They told us Blu-ray would be faster, and more efficient, and have better connection to the Internet!

I wonder if Paramount will actually produce some special features for South Park BLU. The DVD was barebones and we never got a Special Edition.

It would be nice if they did! I doubt they will though... :sad:

I'd really like to hear a Matt & Trey audio commentary, even if they didn't do a full length one....like the mini-commentaries for the season releases...if they provided enough good info and stories in only 25-30 minutes then I'd be happy...though I imagine they probably do have enough stuff to talk about for the whole running length of this one....

The only delays in DVDs were from Criterion. That's all I can remember.

Blu-ray.com said that there would be a commentary, a music video and three trailers (all in HD).

Warner has announced a trio of children's animated titled for release on Blu-ray on October 6: 'A Charlie Brown Christmas', 'Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who!' and 'Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas' (not to be mistaken with the theatrical feature-length movies). All three titles will be released as "Deluxe Editions".

'A Charlie Brown Christmas' will include a bonus Peanuts TV special.

'Horton Hears a Who!' will include the feature-length documentary "In Search of Dr. Seuss", the singalong music video "You Can Heart Horton, Horton Can Hear You!", and two more animated stories based on Dr. Seuss' work: "Dr. Seuss' Butter Battle Book", and "Daisy-Head Mayzie." Apparently missing is a third segment included in the DVD, "Horton Hatches the Egg."

Extras for 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas' are still unconfirmed.
Nice to see some classic animation on Blu-ray, but Deluxe has me scared these will be priced a bit too high. And how long are these films anyway?

Re: Blu-ray release announcements - Part IV
 
This is what the fourth release of A Charlie Brown Christmas(3 on DVD, 1 Blu)? :rolleyes: Just give us the 60's collection with the Deluxe features first time out already.

A certain David Fincher film has been announced for 10/13. But the first rule is I'm not supposed to talk about it...

Don't be silly. It's obviously a collection of his Paula Abdul videos.

Nah, it's probably gonna be Alien 3. It's not that Copper Blue can't talk about it, it's just that he doesn't want to.

If it's what I think, :up: to Fox for finally getting around to it.

TDB reported four Trek films, The Wrath of Khan, The Voyage Home, The Undiscovered Country and First Contact will be available separately 9/22.

LOL. Put them in a boxset called "Trek - Just the Evens".

I know, right?

Then there can be The Odds and Ends Edition with all the others.

In addition to "Heat" and "Logan's Run", "The Negotiator" also arrives on November 3rd.

I love The Negotiator but I'll wait for reviews before I decide if I'm upgrading or not.

I'll probably get it, but I'll wait until it's $15. I'm sure it's going to look much better than the dvd, which was released waaaay back in 1998.

Zen Peckinpah 07-20-09 10:11 PM

Re: Blu-ray release announcements - Part IV
 
Yeah, Negotiator is one of the titles I've had for the longest. Will probably grab when the price is right.

Heat on the other hand is a must-buy. Surprised it's not a digi-book. Wonder if Public Enemies streets the same day too.

Negotiator was an enjoyable movie. I'll be picking this one up.

I always liked this movie too, I just remember the trailer ruining the movie for me back in the day.
