Any updates on the replacement program?

John Galt

Yes, they’re in the original post.

The original, limited edition Akira UHD sets from Funimation were missing HDR. They had an exchange in place of some sorts, but the set is now out of print and they've stopped replacing it with the corrected disc. In the past month Funimation has issued a regular edition Akira UHD, which all have the corrected disc.

Has anyone requested a corrected Road Warrior disc and actually gotten a response? I sent an email a few weeks back and never heard anything.

If anyone was waiting for a Hard Target replacement UHD disc from Kino they are starting to ship now.

Anyone know if the copies for sell now still have these issues? I really want to get this, but I don't want to go through another replacement disc issue (I'm still waiting for Criterion to send me my updated Citizen Kane Blu-ray!).

John Galt

Their email to me said replacement discs would begin shipping in March, so I’d assume anything for sale right now is still the old disc.

I got an email from Criterion on January 21st with a tracking number for my Kane replacement disc, but when I check the number it still says the status is "Shipping Label Created, Awaiting Pickup."

Update: I got my Criterion Citizen Kane replacement Blu-ray TODAY. I also got an email saying that the corrected A Hard's Day Night won't be available for 1 to 2 months (and to check back with them). That means any copies you get prior to then will have a 4K disc that needs replaced. The $10 Coupon has NO expiration date, just FYI.

Mine showed up today too, one day after I posted about there being no shipping status.

Criterion announced Double Indemnity on 4K, but I feel like I have to wait for release now, considering they screw up about half their titles these days.

John Galt

Does anyone have the details for this replacement (Escape From LA)? I've emailed Paramount for instructions but it's been two weeks with no response. I know I've seen the instructions posted online, but can't find a good source at the moment.

Shannon Nutt

If anyone cares, I got a confirmation from Criterion that the Hard Days Night 4Ks on Criterion.com for sale are the corrected copies as of late March/early April. So anyone who gets theirs directly from Criterion now need not worry about getting the first pressing.

if you’ve gotten no response at all, I’d try again. I emailed them a few months ago and got an automated response shortly thereafter. Then I waited a month and tried again. I received the same automated response, but this time I also got an email asking for proof of purchase etc. a few weeks later I got my disc.

John Galt

Added 12 Monkeys. See this video for details.

Apparently, this was also an issue with the Arrow Blu-ray from a few years ago, but nobody noticed it until the 4K came out.

Toddarino

I watched it and didn’t even notice an issue. Then I looked up what time the error occurred and watched it three times until I noticed the issue.

John Galt

Looks like some errors with the audio on Rocky II and III. I'm going to read through a few dozen pages of bullshit on the other forum and see if I can get a synopsis.

Spiderbite

Was there ever anything official done for the Mad Max error? I never got around to emailing them. Guess I may need to wade through that "Other" forum as well to find out.

I still need to do the Psycho replacement disc as well. Damn.

Isn't there something wrong with the original 2001: A Space Odyssey release? The other site says: "recalled: w/ No fade error version" ...anyone know what that's about?

Shannon Nutt

There was a hard cut at around the 33-minute mark that was supposed to be a fade-out. It's the nit-pickiest of errors, but the original theatrical version has a fade out there, so people want it as it originally was.
