So if it’s not utilizing the 4k restoration, then will there be a future release that does utilize it? Or will it be one of those 27’ Napoleon ordeals where it’s only to be shown in theater’s and unavailable for home viewing?
Yeah, Vonetta and Frank definitely dubbed their characters in the film.
It’s seems really strange to me that after a long wait for this to be released on Blu-ray, a company decides to release a version not based on the new 4K restoration. Don’t they realize that as a niche product, most consumers are going to be in-the-know and will therefore probably wait for the inevitable release of the restored 4K version rather than buy this release? Or maybe they have done the numbers and I’m wrong…
I also wonder what the aspect ratio will be since it has apparently been incorrect on most DVD releases.
1,85:1 as far as we know now.
All new releases are 1,85:1, the trailer on the old Kinowelt disc also, and Mike Siegel possesses a hard matted 35 mm copy in that aspect ratio.
The aspect ratio of about 1,56:1 on the older disc was pretty strange anyway.
So I took some time to look around on the database and I didn’t notice that any of these releases were listed, it seems a Japanese company has been releasing some Spaghetti Westerns on Blu Ray. There’s five total that I think they’ve put out, which I’ll list below:
I think this is Un Dollaro Tra I Denti’s first blu ray release. I can add these into the database… but I’ll be honest I can’t read Japanese and Google Translate isn’t really working for this… But these look really fucking good.
It isn’t, I just updated it, the other is from 2013, this new one is from 2017. But unclear what the image transfer is, if they just re-used that one, then it remains shit of course
Oh man, the Sartana blu-ray has been pushed back…bummer. Then again I have been waiting years for a decent release so what is another couple months. I mean from a 4K scan, in its correct aspect ratio and uncut, man that will be a prize in my collection.
