[Blu-ray] Latest and Upcoming Releases 📀

[Admin (Sebastian)]

let’s gather some good reviews here,

here’s one that’s not ecstatic The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Blu-ray (Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo | 50th Anniversary Edition)

also worth reading

I don’t see the big deal here, the release looks just fine. Good picture quality and the original audio track for the theatrical cut. I guess there’s some differences in the cuts? Some marginally different scenes? That’s what I got from The Edit Room Floor review.

I’ll definitely be purchasing this edition, mainly just for the 4k presentation.

[Admin (Sebastian)]

@VanEyck

for the 4k presentation.

It’s not a 4K presentation, it’s a BluRay, so it can only be 2k (1920px horizontally), it’s just based on a 4K restoration process (which ideally should’ve made an UHD BluRay possible, but I think these are still a bi too expensive to produce)

[VanEyck (Nick)]

Sorry my mistake. I was always under the impression that 4k referred to something else, not pixels size.

But still, they ARE being produced And if I should bet on a spaghetti western getting a UHD release it would be this one. It has a massive audience. If they can release Savage Pampas on UHD in Germany, I’m sure they can find people buying a real 4K release of GBU there also.

Where can I buy this?

[Admin (Sebastian)]

this numbered hardbox isn’t sold on Amazon, you’d have to turn to specialty online stores like DTM etc.

Ofdb.de has it:

If it is this special release you want. There is also a mediabook-release for roughly the same amount of money.

Don’t know what the quality of the transfer is though on these releases.

@Dean

I don’t think any reviews have mentioned the fact Kino used the botched 1998 DVD cut as their ‘Theatrical cut’.

Here’s the full breakdown:

The G.B.U. Kino disc has arrived.

[Handman]

That’s disappointing, but not disastrous. The worst part is the re-editing of the Tuco henchmen scene.

What is the point in 88’s release of Django Kill?

I don’t understand that question? It would be the first BluRay release of that film in the UK… enough point

[Colt_Navy (Mark)]

Arrived! Been looking forward to this one.

[Farmer_J]

Give us a shout if it has English options. If not, I will be hysterically angry.

[AvatarDK]

It only seems to have the Italian and German dub and German subtitles.

Dammit

[AvatarDK]

It would be nice to hear from someone who actually have the release though. Koch Media have included ‘hidden’ English subs before as far as I remember.

[Phil_H]

Yes, Koch nearly always included English subs “secretly”. Not mentioned on the sleeve or menu but easily found with your remote.

[Grinder]

I can confirm this release includes english audio

[Farmer_J]

Really? Definite purchase from me in the near future.
