It's awesome. Srsly.

Fun, campy, great set design.

nf0603 · 01-19-2012, 02:52 AM

Excited. Hopefully we'll also see Cat Ballou and 9 To 5 on Blu for Jane Fonda movies.

Batmon77 · 01-19-2012, 02:57 AM

I was wondering if this would get an "upgrade".

Great visuals.

Imagine Flash Gordon campy with the 60s psychedelica.

Classic.

Mondo Bizarro · 01-19-2012, 03:03 AM

Hell effin yeah!!! Been waiting for this one.

Femmeslover · 01-19-2012, 03:26 AM

This is one of my most-wanted titles on Blu-ray, especially since the DVD has been out-of-print for a while now and I never got around to buying it

PowellPressburger · 01-19-2012, 04:13 AM

Yeah, Danger Diabolik would be a great same day release for Barbarella.

It's best known and best loved scene is the opening title sequence, so you don't have long to wait .... the rest is a 60's kitch/psych/camp classic

I just hope the cover art is based on the iconic movie poster from the 60's

Day one for me

The film that gave the band DURAN DURAN its name

PRO-630HD · 01-19-2012, 08:43 AM

Great news and I hope they have some great extras!

The scene that kills the picture and slows it way down is the scene with Doug Hemmings as Dildano! It isn't funny and goes on forever and quite frankly he sucks! I would highly prefer the original scene of Fonda nude doing the hand touch lovemaking with the Italian actor instead as shown below. There was a lesbian scene that was cut out as well.

Great band, useless well known fact.

This movie's numerous optical special effects shots are some of the worst I've ever seen - they're all scratchy, dark, and blurry. It will be interesting to see what they look like in the full glory of hi-def.
