The Official Arrow Films 4K/Blu-ray Discussion and Release Thread

Re: The Official Arrow Blu-ray Thread
Man. Fuck Arrow. They couldn't have released the American Donnie Darko set at the same time? Or at least announced it at the same time? I would straight up defraud their ass and buy the American one and send back the UK one on the same receipt if it wasn't for the fact that I already opened it. This is some bullshit.

I guess the Phantasm announcement has Well Go scrambling. They just listed their special edition on Amazon.

I'll wait until more specific details are posted, but looks like a good U.S. alternative than importing the Arrow set.

Re: The Official Arrow Blu-ray Thread
I was able to get the Donnie Darko UK blu for about $28 shipped amazon . Given the US release is the 4 disc limited edtition and list priced at $49.99, i doubt highly it'll get lower than 30 by release day.
and if you shelled out for the UK version, you probably have a region free player and can play the disc so whats to complain about,

Re: The Official Arrow Blu-ray Thread
ok so maybe I overreacted a little. But it would have been about 9 dollars cheaper from a retailer I go to in Canada. Also, I have a region free player, but I don't have a ton of stuff that isn't region 1 and I'd prefer to have as much region 1 stuff as possible so maybe when the day comes I won't have to buy 2 4k players. Also, yeah, the ratings sticker is somewhat aesthetically unpleasing, but not a dealbreaker by any means.
I dunno, it just seems like a dick move to announce these both a few months apart. Had I known, I would have still given them my business, but I would have bought the Region 1 version.

You assume that this was an intentional decision. It could be that they had trouble locking down the North American distribution rights.

Re: The Official Arrow Blu-ray Thread
I'm region free so it doesn't matter that I already bought it. I plan on selling my US release when it arrives. However, I find it hard to believe that they didn't know that they were going to be able to release it in the US before the UK version was actually released.

I want to say Fox still owns rights here as they released the last blu in 2009. Or maybe Arrow wanted to see how many copies they sold to US customers

Holy shit, are they doing Caltiki? It's not as good as having the Lucas Dark Skies commentary back, but it's goddamn close.

Re: The Official Arrow Blu-ray Thread
I imported the UK Darko in the stripped down version. I lose the nice book, but didn't want the two coasters that came with the Deluxe Edition. I haven't seen that version announced for the US, but it may yet be in the pipeline.
