Escape from L.A., Candyman, and Lifeforce coming to 4K disc from Shout in May.

There must have been a reason why I had heretofore resisted buying Lifeforce, and I suppose 4k was it.

Escape from New York

Damn I was about to blow my top. I just got the faulty Escape From LA disc.

Mathilda May in 4K! I don't know if my eyes can take it!

Lawrence of Arabia and Bridge on River Kwai are getting 4K disc steelbooks from Sony in June.

I haven't been able to own a good version of LoA since the old laserdisc version. I might watch out for this one.

Finally. June 7th.

Lawrence of Arabia Restored Version 4K UHD

Same 4k disc as before, right?

Yes on LOA and new Dolby Vision and Mono for Kwai.

Future Boy Conan – Part 1

Finally, we close out the month of March with a title we announced a while ago, and now we’re ready to give you a first look at it… and prepare to pre-order the world’s first anime TV series to get a 4K UHD Blu-ray release!



That’s right, the first half of Future Boy Conan is coming to Collector’s Edition on May 23rd, with Part 1 comprising of the first half of the series on both 4K UHD Blu-ray (in an SDR presentation across two discs) alongside two traditional Blu-rays.

These discs sit within an Amaray case, which itself fits inside a rigid slipcase designed to house parts one and two of the series – don’t forget, the second half of the series also comes with a full-blown, comprehensive book penned by Jonathan Clements and Andrew Osmond detailing the series and its production, so look forward to more on that over the coming months.

Future Boy Conan wouldn't have been my first choice for UHD but it's definitely an interesting selection.

Don't know how official this is, but this Twitter feed is reporting Studio Canal is releasing Manhunter in 4K

Twitter

Kino Lorber in the U.S. previously denied they were releasing it here.

TheDiscFather is a rebranded GeekGab.

Yup, fanmade mockups and all.

I skipped the Blu-ray since I have a trio of DVDs to cover the different versions. I could see grabbing this depending on which cut they use.

Meaning their "news" is probably fake?

It seems like a mix of "unannounced but relatively safe bets" (like, a re-release of a movie that's getting a sequel or a remake), "foreign retailer listings", and "complete shots in the dark", with mocked up cover art to add an undeserved sense of legitimacy, and they delete whatever doesn't pan out so that anyone who scrolls through their social media feeds will think they're in the know. They're not always wrong, but they're not worth listening to.

Was this posted already?

Each movie is getting its own separate release.

I hope this does not stay around $34-$36 or higher

Maybe $20 or less is more desirable
