Great stuff!

One of Scorsese's and De Niro's best. I imagine quite a few people haven't seen this one and if you haven't, you are in for a treat. This isn't like one of those recent De Niro "comedies" trust me!

Hopefully we'll have After Hours soon too - that's another minor Scorsese gem.

It's nice that this finally has a date - it's one of my favourite Scorsese films and it should look terrific, coming from a recent 4K restoration. Hopefully Sony releases their recent restoration of The Age of Innocence soon.

Watched this one yesterday, really really good stuff.

I'll probably pick it up eventually sometime down the line.

Finally

Mizu_Ger · 01-15-2014, 04:08 PM

Great, but I hope that price comes down.

rapta · 01-15-2014, 04:40 PM

Nice! Never saw all of this in the past so now is the time. Was sad Paramount cancelled Peter Weir's Witness but this makes up for it! Thanks Fox!

I'm 90% sure it's likely to be in the Amazon or HMV offers soon after release though - don't be fooled into pre-ordering it at the current price! Wait a month or so and you can get it for £8 or under...

mattyl149 · 01-15-2014, 05:24 PM

I was beginning to think we'd never see this released

This will probably end up in a 3 for £20 offer soon after release

rjf78 · 01-16-2014, 03:02 PM

great news.

rapta · 01-18-2014, 09:01 PM

If anyone's impatient for it to end up in an offer and wants it on release...

Scratch that, NEAR release. Like, week one.

Chad Plainview · 01-19-2014, 08:48 AM

One of Scorsese's greatest films. Bout time it hit bluray.

theprestige85 · 01-19-2014, 09:23 AM

It's definitely one of Scorsese's better films from the 80's. I'd like to revisit it again myself. DeNiro is properly creepy in it, lol.

Ill_Be_Back · 01-19-2014, 03:03 PM

Great film, should have been released a long tome ago.

I don't know, I haven't pre-ordered from them before. Anyway, I'm gonna wait this one out it's bound to be cheap at either Amazon or HMV much like New York New York or any of their other recent cheap titles have been. Wondering if The Darjeeling Limited will be the same though, as a few of their titles hover at £10-ish for some time...

Trigger89 · 01-20-2014, 06:48 PM

I am ashamed to say that I have never seen this and I'm a huge fan of De Niro and Scorsese! I'll definitely be picking this one up!

At least youre honest! There will be quite a few here getting all excited about this despite never seeing it...

ycbbh · 01-21-2014, 09:49 AM

I've already got the DVD so I don't need to upgrade, I mean you can't tell the difference anyway especially with these older films that weren't even shot in HD
