Gremlins

[nuttyhotspurs]

From what i understand there are now 3 versions of this in the UK. am i right?
(1) The original white cover release (2) The Christmas style cover release (3) the new white cover release that came out this year

Is there any difference between the discs? extras? i really don't trust website descriptions anymore, they just copy and paste information from previous releases

Discs are the same as far as i know, just the covers that have changed

I think they're all the same disc. The latest one has UV if I remember correctly. There's a fourth release and that's a Steelbook™.

All these re-releases, yet no Gremlins 2 in sight grr. Same thing is happening with Ghostbusters, with the sequel being a no show.

who own the right to Gremlins 2: The New Batch in the UK,
Warner already release it in the US, so have to wander what the hold up is

update never mind
just checked and saw Warner put out the UK DVD,

[Stu123]

It's Warner and region free so i don't understand why you'd wait and wait when you can own it now.

I am tempted by the steelbook of both from France but its a jumbo steely so huge and got french writing

I was hoping the UK would get a double movie steel like the French one, only in a single width steel, like we got with the recent Zavvi Kill Bill release - both movies in an excellent, standard size steel

i doubt that will happen seeing as though zavvi is releasing the first gremlins as a steelbook in october.

It's ugly and the back is covered in writing

Looks like another one is on its way. 30th anniversary edition, maybe?

Let's hope so! (And that it includes the sequel)

[Blu MacReady]

And at £24.99 it's another preorder bargain that'll have people rushing to order. At that price I hope it doesn't sell out

[Buddy Ackerman]

Come on, we all know the price is going to fall very, very soon. It's just the RRP - the 'proper' price will be along soon

The US are getting a 30th Anniversary Edition so it's safe to assume this is the same - which is fantastic news. Shame they're not putting Gremlins 2 out at the same time (though there's obviously still a chance they might) but I would highly recommend the current US disc for those who are happy tp import - it's a very good release.

[Wes Blu-ray]

A 30th Anniversary Edition of Gremlins would be fantastic.

And then next year, a 25th Anniversary Edition of Gremlins 2: The New Batch.

[HuggyBear73]

So it sounds like the US version will be 2-discs but the UK version over at Amazon says 1 disc.

Given amazon.co.uk seem to have nothing except a release date so far, I imagine they just don't have the specs yet. I wouldn't worry just yet - I'm not saying it won't happen but if we're getting the release I imagine it'll just be a straight port. No point re-releasing it and taking away the point of the re-release, it's not like the UK is lacking in different versions of the original release.
