BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

dvdempire has them both up for pre-order...i'm sure an official announcement will soon follow.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

In for both, if transfers are acceptable.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Here's a review of the UK Blu-ray of Escape. Hopefully the upcoming release will be dual-layer.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Looking forward to both of these. :up:

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Likewise.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Blood Simple? Hell yes. :up:

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Extremely psyched for both of these!

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

MGM/Fox will also release Bull Durham and Kalifornia that day as well, according to the Digital Bits. All four titles sound worthy upgrades to me. :up:

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Escape From New York for me. I never liked Blood Simple.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Can finally get rid of my non-anamorphic Kalifornia dvd.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Only if Blood Simple is the real theatrical version.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Im down for replacing all my John Carpenter DVD's w/ blu's. :thumbsup:

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Great news on Blood Simple & Escape from NY.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Oh yeah. Ready for some Escape from New York.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Same here.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Finally! More old-school Carpenter. Now, if Uni would get on releasing their films of his...

Also, awesome news on Blood Simple.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

I'm in for both of these. Excellent news.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Count me in also, for Escape from New York eventually. It'll go nicely with my copy of The Thing.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

In for Escape. I'll keep my Blood DVD though- can't imagine the BD will look amazingly better.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

I hope that they do a better job with the extras!

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

I was thinking the same thing. I'll all for replacing Escape from New York on blu (it is my favorite movie of all time)...but if it don't match the features on the special edition, it's going to be a hard sell. Then again, I would probably be willing to make an exception like on my Daredevil stuff where I have kept both the special edition 2-disc dvd and the director's cut on Blu-Ray. We'll see.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

only if they get it right...one day..I'll get The Thing....

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

I just got the UK version two weeks ago. Ugh serves me right I guess.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

Saw Bull Durham Blu-ray/dvd combo in Best Buy today. Didnt see any other titles though.

Re: BLOOD SIMPLE and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK -- 8/3/10
 

I can add Bull Durham to the list.

Yeesh. Hopefully, they do a good job with EFNY. That movie is a classic.
