Hopefully so. I've always had a soft spot for this one, since my brother and I got to be extras in the "Boiler Room" scene.

James Flower posted on criterionforum.org that the next ShawScope set isn’t coming until next year.
Fingers crossed for Super Inframan (if Shout doesn’t get to it first).
Q. Sorry for going a bit off-topic, James(*), but are we going to see Shawscope Vol 3 this year, or is it happening next year instead? The Bruce Lee set must have taken a lot of time and resources for this year, so I figure Vol 3 might not happen in 2023.
A. Definitely next year. One massive HK set per year is all we can manage!

So that unexpectedly neat airing on FX several years back of an alternate cut of Blackhat will finally see the light of day on home video, cool.
I have a soft spot for this film, having seen the alternate FX Channel cut once, and the theatrical cut of this film. I would be down to watch it a third time, as I liked the cast and what few action scenes it has are pretty well staged set-pieces.
I forget where I read this on-line (maybe an AV Club article?), but I guess Michael Mann was recently a bit down on this film given that it gets a lot of shade thrown at it. However, he said that what is in the film is all technically accurate. Fair enough, but I would hope that the FBI or whatever, would not use such a simple to turn-off method (by going into an Android phones settings and simply toggling location services to off, lol) for tracking a person of interest.
Anyway, I have no problem admitting I enjoyed this film and if it was priced right and had some nice extras I would strongly think about picking up a copy when Arrow has a sale going on. Even EPK type interviews with the main cast would be fine as extras.

With the new Bruce Lee box set only the 4k disks are region free? I live in North America, will I be missing out on any content on the locked region Blu Rays that are included in this set?

I'd like to get the complete Bruce Lee set, not the individuals. But want to wait until there is a decent sale. The initial price is just too much for something that's been released so many times over the years even if it is 4K now. And I already own so many copies.
I did see one of the sets is apparently sold out. I think it's the Arrow exclusive limited artwork.

Surprised no one here has singled out the awesome looking Psycho set that is being released by Arrow UK on Monday. Region free 4K set.
I had to learn about it from a Diabolik email and that other forum...

The Shaw Scope Volume 2 set has dropped to $89.45
Lowest price for the set. I foolishly paid $129.99 for Volume 1. I think I'm going to bite on this price.
Edit: Order placed. That was the price range I was hoping for. The set has been out almost a year. I doubt it goes any lower. No more shopping. I have a trip to Japan to plan for now and need to save my money.
