Finally!

But seriously, what's with these horrible UK covers nowadays?

RDA · 11-04-2011, 08:08 PM

I don't care about the artwork. Not when a masterpiece is being released on blu-ray by a company who knows how to release their back catalogue, and a film that will have undergone a spectacular restoration. This is supreme news! Bring on the pre-order!

joliefan · 11-04-2011, 08:27 PM

yes yes yes

i love this masterpiece but i have only one question will it be split onto two disks?

Exact date TBC, however it will be released in 2012, most likely the early part.

Artwork above is not final, however clearly indicates it will be part of the Sony Collector's Edition series.

Will update the thread whenever more info or an exact release day is confirmed.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! My 2nd favourite movie of all time finally finally finally

pauljeremiah · 11-05-2011, 12:13 AM

I hope the film is on one disc and not spread over 2.

SolidBlu · 11-05-2011, 12:26 AM

yes!

hope it will be more earlier, say first week of January 2012

Hmmm, you know, I wouldn't mind so much. I guess for me, with a film as visually stunning as Lawrence, I'd rather not sacrifice the bitrate for the convenience of a single disc.

And really, it has a perfect break, at the intermission of course. And given that part 1 is much longer than part 2, it might work nicely to have part 1 all to itself on disc 1, then part 2 on disc two along with any bonus features.

I tell you one thing for sure, I bet the US gets a huge collectors box set like Bridge On The River Kwai. I dont mind I imported that over the UK amaray.

I rather like that image. Hope they keep it!

Keeping my fingers crossed for a collectors set.

That'll probably happen like it always does. The studios probably think we're not interested in packaging like that or whatever.

I've heard nothing but good things about this film, cant wait to see it. 2 out of the already 9 released from this sony collection have been two discs. On a different note - How many releases are there going to be in this specific collection

prolificfilmfan · 11-05-2011, 12:25 PM

OMG!! Go to the Lawrence of Arabia wikipedia page, scroll down to home media and it says Lawrence of Arabia is currently undergoing an 8K FULL RESTORATION for the 2012 blu-ray release !!
