Demolition Man Blu on 8/16/11!!
 
Digitalbits is reporting:
Warner Home Video has announced more catalog Blu-ray releases for 8/16 (SRP $19.98), including Assassins, Cobra, Demolition Man and The Specialist. All star Sylvester Stallone.


AWESOME news. Hopefully the transfer and audio are stellar and not sub-par.

Yep, I'd be in for Assassins, Demolition Man and maybe The Specialist.

Crime is a disease, Stallone on blu is the cure....gonna have crappy transfers more than likely. Still, I guess if they're decent, I'll be getting them, except The Specialist. I can't go back to that one again.

Is it too much to hope for that these have some additional special features? The original release was rather bare bones...

Yes. I can almost guarantee it'll be bare bones or port over whatever features there were (I could've sworn Assassins had a commentary or something). I'm wondering if these, or a couple, will become Best Buy exclusives like The Long Kiss Goodnight.

Most of Warner's catalog transfers have been solid, AFAIK. Usually you get the best print they have, presented without tweaks.

FINNALLY!!!!! This is AWESOME NEWS!!!
I have been waiting for Demolition Man to hit blu for a while now.
Its been on Netflix streaming in HD for a while now and the transfer is pretty good, so i cant wait to see how much better the BD looks

SOLD on Demolition Man. I've been waiting for this for quite some time.

I'd kill for a Stallone commentary on DM

I just had Taco Bell tonight and I come home to see this news. Simply awesome.

I hope it's a 3-disc set with each disc having a seashell as its artwork.

Solid Snake 04-21-11 11:49 PM

Re: Demolition Man Blu on 8/16/11!!
 
lol.

Honestly out of all of those...DM is the one I really want. The action is solid. Kinda wonky dialogue wise but it's alright cuz for some reason it works for the story.

Re: Demolition Man Blu on 8/16/11!!
 
Surprised these aren't double feature releases, has WB given them up? I'll probably get Demolition Man, it's really the only half decent one, though they are all watchable. Went and saw Sly filming Assassins (he waived), too bad the movie didn't turn out better...

I love Demolition Man so I hope it gets a great transfer. :D

My dad is in Assassins so I need to get it. :)

I'll take Cobra if the AV is good.

Demolition Man and Cobra day one for sure! Been waiting for these.

Your dad is Antonio Banderas? That's badass.

Held off on getting the standard version so i'll be getting the bluray!

Love DM. I'll buy it.

Re: Demolition Man Blu on 8/16/11!!
 
I'd go for Demolition Man. Good action, and Sandra Bullock was quite appealing in this one. I can skip the others, though.

Hopefully the PQ won't be as bad as that list of carried over extras. So glad to hear this is finally happening though...let's just hope they don't frak it up >.>

I'm in for all 4. Get rid of those stupid flipper dvds and snapper cases

Solid Snake 04-23-11 09:19 AM

Re: Demolition Man Blu on 8/16/11!!
 
fuck...I'd really love for Sly to get a commentary in.

:lol:

No, my dad is not Antonio Banderas. He's too young for that. :p

Portions of this movie were shot in Puerto Rico. A production assistant was a friend of one of my dad's bandmates (he was in a group called Tepeu). Said PA convinced the producers to hire the band and my dad appears in the "festival of the dead" scene alongside Julianne Moore.

My dad did get to meet Banderas and told me he was a swell guy. He didn't like Stallone, though. Apparently he was very standoffish.

Demolition Man & Assassins are awesome films and definite buys for me. I'm a HUGE Stallone fan, but I'm just not that into Cobra or The Specialist.

Solid Snake 04-23-11 10:21 PM

Re: Demolition Man Blu on 8/16/11!!
 
...I dunno...Assassins just feels sooooo weak to me.

Cobra and Demolition Man... Stallone's guiltiest pleasures.

Demolition Man - #1 on my most wanted Blu list so YEE HAA and an immediate day one buy for me. One of Sandra Bullock's best films.

Agreed - if these were double feature discs, I'd buy both of them in a heartbeat. As it stands though, I'm only in for Demolition Man.
