I received an email saying that the Donnie Darko UHD replacement disc is ready and they will be sending them out as early as next week.

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

Was it just 4K messed up or Blu-ray too? What was messed up?

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

Just UHD.

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

Eh, I wouldn’t watch TE anyway, but good to have I suppose.

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

TE is the preferred version for most people. So it's a pretty big deal.

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

Did I say anything different? Just said it wasn’t for ME. That’s all. Never said not a big deal for those that care.

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

I got my replacement Donnie Darko in yesterday.

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

Wow! True Romance looks fantastic! Like when I saw in theater. One of the greatest Hans Zimmer soundtracks imo. I bought digital soundtrack and love it. The songs too. John Waite, more. So much apart of movie. Like the romantic heros theme or something. Such an amazing film. And such an incredible cast! Too bad this didn’t do anything at BO. Such an underrated classic imo. And should really go down in the anthem of Tarantino gems. Even though Tony Scott directed, this is QT through and through.

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

If there’s one negative. Image a little soft, but I certainly don’t know any other technical terms, what have you, but not as crisp or dark as better transfers. Minor though. Still looks and it sounds great. Booming. It’s 5.1 DTS on Blu and I keep it 2 to 3 notches lower than most blus. Thus is booming. Clear dialogue even during loud scenes with techno. Damn fine, so deserved release. Should be a US.

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

No updates on Dune getting that doc or anything? I think I’m gonna pass on this. Doesn’t seem worth it with such a choice extra missing. Never a fanboy and barely remember seeing just one time.

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

Arrow is not getting the documentary. From what I've heard, the Koch release in Germany is still scheduled to have it.

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

same new transfer and all same extras? Link?

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

is this the Koch one that has the docu? am i missing out on that 7-disc UE from Koch? thx.

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

I've pre-ordered it through Amazon Germany(which is easy enough to cancel). I just took a shot, but so far it's a little lean on the details.

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

You got the 7 disc or 3? What’s on 7 anyway?

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

Didn't you ask that enough times in the Dune thread?

https://forum.dvdtalk.com/hd-talk/65...=#post13939396

How many times do we need to answer the same question for you?

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

I got the Dune limited edition today. Hoping to give it a view in the next day or two.

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

Where did you order from?

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

I'm a gold backer from when they did their little US expansion so I get all of their releases directly from MVD. I got the 4k and blu limited editions yesterday but I haven't received the Steelbook yet.

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

Arrow generally does standard releases after the Limited Editions, right? Meaning... Theoretically, we should eventually see a standard 4K True Romance?

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

Yup.

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

Yeah, and looking at Tremors and Gamera, anyway, it looks like they tend to show up 4 months after the LE is released.

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

^ That's the kind of timeline I can handle. Thanks! I'll order the standard edition of TR when I can... I really wanted the LE but realized I didn't want the stuff... just the damn movie. :)

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

I'm in the same boat.

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

I pre-ordered the Shaw-scope box-set from Diabolik...

https://www.diabolikdvd.com/wp-conte..._US-scaled.jpg

Pretty excited for it! One of only 2 or 3 blu purchases for me this entire year.

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

The Shaw Bros. set went down to $129.99 on Amazon. That's good enough for me, so I pulled the trigger.

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

I was just about to buy this at Diabolik at the same price, but this eliminates any shipping cost. Thanks.

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

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

Battle Royale will be fun to revisit.

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

I'm sure I'll end up buying Hills, but I'm also a bit surprised at its upgrade. The source material doesn't seem like it's screaming that it needs to be in 4k. Battle Royale will be a nice upgrade.

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

Nice to see another lesser-known (in the west) but highly influential Japanese film being given the boutique treatment. The only subbed version of SAILOR SUIT in the DVD era was part of the Kadokawa series released by IVL in Hong Kong. That line had a strong selection of essential pictures from the studio, including several key ones with idol star Hiroko Yakushimaru from this film (she was a top earner for the entire decade). But those are long OOP. I don’t think Kadokawa films have been overly well represented in the west, so hopefully the Arrow release might inspire other labels to see the value of their catalog in defining the era of the 70’s and 80’s in Japanese cinema. There’s a lot of good stuff there.

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

Mill of the Stone Women looks interesting, any thoughts?

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

I got that big Arrow set from UK from awhile ago. Any difference in this except the 4K?

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

I don't know. Look it up and let us all know.

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

Of what? The Hills Have Eyes? Battle Royale?

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

Check the closet photos, Adam. Jeez, do we have to figure everything out for you now?

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

I have the DVD but I remember being a little disappointed in it when I watched it years ago. It was a blind buy.

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

sorry BR.

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

This edition has a whole lot less. Doesn’t have the sequel or soundtrack CD, so it’s two discs instead of five.

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

Oh, I saw the sequel. It’s dreadful. No desire, whatsoever, to see that pos again. Not even short candle to first and I’m sure I’ll never listen to cd. I think this is good enough for the incredible 1st. 2 cuts and special features, (so 3 discs actually) are what I love and that sf disc is packed.
