7/21/09 Blus? - Blu-ray Forum

JasonSB · 07-30-2009, 03:27 AM

What's different about all the Blus that were released on 7/21 that had previously been released?

Payback, Truman Show, etc. They've all been released b4. No discernible diiference that I can see.

Uncle Leo · 07-30-2009, 03:57 AM

Those are not re releases, What country are you in?

JasonSB · 07-30-2009, 04:01 AM

United States. Check out Best Buy or Walmart. There's 2 of them.

Amazon has a lot of blus listed as having come out on 07/21/09 as well as a second entry of the same blus listed as having come out on their original release. I noticed it too, but just chalked it up to weird thing amazon does from time to time. I would like to know if there is actually a difference though.

The Truman Show

Payback

The Truman Show

Payback

Probably just a price cut.

JasonSB · 07-30-2009, 04:36 AM

Both show a list price of $29.99.

jasonicus · 07-30-2009, 01:31 PM

They just look like re-releases to me. I can't see a difference either.

Nope. The July 21, 2009 releases have an MSRP of $22.98

As far as Nacho Libre goes, Listed on Amazon: the new release has a 2.35:1 aspect ratio compared to the version I have which is a 1.85:1 aspect ratio.

Does anyone have the new release of this title? I was wanting to find out if this is a different transfer on the new release.

Nacho Libre · 07-30-2009, 08:23 PM

2 different versions on Amazon for Nacho Libre 7/21/2009.

Paramount is repackaging a handful of Blu-ray Discs to include MovieCash for G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.

The Blu-ray Discs are exactly the same ones as available before, Nothing changed, altered, or added.

Amazon is usually wrong on the aspect ratios about 85% of the time

Nacho Libre · 07-31-2009, 01:01 PM

Thanks! I'll stick with the copy I have then.

When release sites lists things that have been previously released, if now a specific re-release, usually its just more stock. A lot of those sites get their lists in the form of shipping lists, or in other words, what they are going to get in the boxes they get shipped from the warehouse that week.
