This should be a Best Buy exclusive. No 100% proof yet, but just something I heard. Hope this is a $10 Deal of the Day like Drawn Together and Anchorman was.

Any reviews for The Magnificent Seven? I'm hoping it isn't subpar like the Leones.

I'm so excited for this! Pre-ordered, love the cover art.

I never even heard of that movie before... So this was made when Nicole Kidman was just a kid? I didn't realize she started acting so early in life.

It was directed by the great Brian Trenchard-Smith, who made such films as Dead End Drive In and Escape 2000 (Turkey Shoot) - I remember renting in on VHS under the name Short Wave when I was younger. It was released in 1983 so she was 16 or 17 I'd say, she started acting at 14....

That's a very Transformers-esque font.

i take it you're not a child of the 80's that had hbo

then it was replaced by Airborne in the early-mid 90's as the go to afternoon flick.

*apparently Kidman was 15 in the movie. If we get Escape 2000, Dead End Drive In, or The Siege of Firebase Gloria on blu-ray, I will die happy.

The Ten Commandments (1956) - 3/29

A BD/DVD Gift-set will include the original 1923 version. I'm thinking the combo pack means the original won't be in HD.

It will. Specs on the 1923 version, from Blu-ray.com --

Sweet!

I'm tempted to get this for nostaglia's sake but I never watched the SE DVD I got several years ago.

I never did either. I bought it and tucked it away on a shelf never to be seen again.

I have the 2-disc set from many years ago, and for some reason, Amazon is willing to buy it from me for $7.75 in store credit and pay for me to mail it to them. Easy upgrade!

This is the version I had:

Universal France did an interview and mentioned that Scarface, Jurassic Park Trilogy, more Hitchcock are on the way in 2011. Likely means the US will get these same titles.

I wonder if more Hitchcock just means the previously mentioned The Birds, or if we'll also see Rear Window and/or Vertigo this year.

also mentioned:

Per The Digital Bits:

"While we're talking Rumor Mill-worthy developments, our sources are also telling us that 20th Century Fox and MGM are preparing new Blu-ray versions of Platoon and Midnight Cowboy. Platoon is currently slated for release in the U.K. on 5/16, with Midnight Cowboy due on 5/2. Expect U.S. street dates to be announced soon for a similar release timeframe."

Awesome news!

Nice news on Winchester 73. Hopefully more Mann will be on the way.

You guessed correctly! I was born in the 80's though.

Well... that certainly answered my question. That's obviously not Nicole Kidman. So, I guess she never was a child actor after all!

Would love to get Mag7 as a single BD.

Did Firebase Gloria even come out on DVD?

Just saw The Ten Commandments pics on highdefdigest..... what are the chances of getting a release with all the bonus feature of the gift set, without all the fluff (stone tablets, bloated 'gift' packaging)?

I want all the discs, but not all the bullshit.

^ I'd be willing to bet Target or Wal-Mart will get a BD sans bullshit.

01/30/11 - "Almost Famous: The Bootleg Cut" (Best Buy Exclusive)



By the look of it, it only includes the one cut, which is unfortunate. No word on special features.
