For those interested, the HTF has a picture of the digibook art for this. It will be a BD and a DVD with the DVD containing a documentary called "Stanley Kubrick's Boxes." I looked this up and it apparently runs about 50 minutes. It doesn't say what's included on the BD other than the movie so I'm guessing it's the same disc currently available.

EDIT: Just found further info at blu-ray.com.

The Grapes of Wrath (1940) and Zorba the Greek (1964) -- April 3 from Screen Archives

NOTE: These are NOT Twilight Time releases and are not limited pressings. They do, however, carry a TT-like price tag of $29.95. Hopefully they will go into general release later.

How many releases does this make on Blu-ray now?

Soon Warner's going to just start celebrating the anniversaries of the anniversary editions of Full Metal Jacket with more anniversary editions.

The certainties of life: death, taxes, and Warner releasing Kubrick films over and over and over and...

Only the 3rd.

Although, since the Boxes doc is on a separate disc, the mastering of the first disc could be the same as the 2007 version (which was the 2nd). I guess we'll be able to tell by the soundtrack; if it's PCM again instead of DTS-HD MA, it's almost certainly the same as before.

Nice to see Mean Streets getting a R1 release. I'd love to upgrade the rest of the Scorsese box too.

Mean Streets - beautiful!

Agreed.

Thrilled about Mean Streets. A great film. Scorsese at the top of his game...can't wait!

There's a Norwegian BD website that has a June 13 release date for Lawrence of Arabia. Hopefully the US date is close to that, assuming it's accurate.

7/10/17 is also bringing us:

Altered States
Brainstorm
Spawn: DC
Coma
Frequency
The Astronaut's Wife

In for Mean Streets and Frequency
Sadly the wait for After Hours continues

Been waiting for this one.

Hope my speakers survive the presumably lossless soundtrack. This one will wake the neighbors for sure.

Fucking five year wait

Some pretty random ones there - is there really much of a market for Coma or Brainstorm?

About damn time. Yes, it could have been a lot better, but I did enjoy it and really want to see it come to blu-ray. Too bad the cartoon really wouldn't be too enhanced by high definition or I would suggest a blu release of that too. Besides, I really don't want to get rid of my steelbook anyway.
