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.

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

Just UHD.

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

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

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.

I got my replacement Donnie Darko in yesterday.

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.

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.

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.

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

same new transfer and all same extras? Link?

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

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.

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

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

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

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

Where did you order from?

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.

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

Yup.

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

^ 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.

I'm in the same boat.

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



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