Collateral -Michael Mann, come on! June - Blu-ray Forum

The Driver · 01-27-2010, 03:56 PM

14 June. Love this film and Cruise's best for a very long time. Mann obviously actually directed him.

I know this got a mention a week ago but it got lost with mention of some crappy children's cartoon.

One of the few Blurays I'll watch the day I get it. 1080p all the way!

Dwight Schrute · 01-27-2010, 05:39 PM

Yep, I can't wait either! This is my favourite performance from Tom Cruise. He fits the role so well.

Why is HMV's a "special edition"?

The Driver · 01-28-2010, 04:51 AM

It's not in HMV's "Exlusive" section so I'm guessing it's a bit of a slip. Just a DVD SE makeover.

Excellent. Another Mann off the list.

birdztudio · 01-28-2010, 10:51 AM

I just hate the cover...

Shanester · 01-28-2010, 11:55 AM

This is Mann's second best film imo after the epic HEAT of course

The Driver · 01-28-2010, 02:48 PM

Mann's best film -and in my greatest films of the last century- is Manhunter.

Then Heat (which I love dearly) and then Collateral. Not forgetting the groundbreaking -IMO- Thief and the very enjoyable The Insider. And then Miami Vice. Can't help myself as I just love the style of it

Yes, I'm a bit of a Mann fan.

I just wish the distibutor would pry Manhunter from that disgusting comedic Bluray set as I'd buy it.

Mr. Brightside · 01-30-2010, 07:04 AM

Don't suppose for a moment that The Keep will become available anytime soon. Would love to see this on Blu.

I think there was a lot of problems with Mann and the studio with The Keep, so I would not even start thinking about that one just yet lol, it will be a long time im guessing... since its not even on DVD.

blackbrains · 02-17-2010, 01:13 PM

This ones totally top of my list

, been anticipating it since long before it was announced, it should, without doubt, be excellent.

Stephan.klose · 02-18-2010, 01:15 PM

Why not order in the US where it will be released on March 30th and has a way better cover?

Pretty much the same cover and they both look terrible! The best is the 2 disc DVD release:

I agree with you there Dwight, is there any reason thats still shrink wrapped? Mine is still wrapped too, I dont even remember when I got it, but I decided I would rather wait till it come out on Blu so its just sat on the shelf

markbr · 05-31-2010, 08:47 AM

I imported my copy from the US. Could not wait cracking film cruise is awesome in this. Totally agree about cover art, could of been much better.

McClane29 · 05-31-2010, 10:13 AM

That 2 disc DVD edition would have made a much better cover for the blu release. Still, two weeks today until release!

I wish they had used the original DVD cover, looks way better.

samdaman94 · 05-31-2010, 11:03 AM

I have that 2 disc dvd in the slip and rarely watch that, so won't pick up the blu for a while. However, I have no problem at all with the artwork

That was the eBay picture from the seller I bought it from. Watched it too many times to count now! Love this film. Only a couple of weeks away

RuLeX · 05-31-2010, 10:30 PM

Ah right! Have to agree I do like this film, think im either gonna have to buy the blu or open my own!

As an afterthought would you have needed approval from the original photographer to publish that?!
