Which Blu-ray announcement of 2020 surprised you the most? - Blu-ray Forum

zw94 · 12-02-2020, 02:15 AM

2020 was a crazy year filled with some amazing catalogue titles. 3 of my most wanted titles were announced this year, along with some others that I kinda wanted as well. Paramount is my winner for Blu-ray this year, and Sony my winner for 4K.

The most surprising was a release of Thomas and the Magic Railroad, which I never thought would happen, and it also included an hour of deleted scenes, the likes of which I definitely thought impossible.

Also, Imprint and Paramount Presents have been a real treat.

What about everyone else?

"Fade to Black", the "Elephant Man"/"Crash" Criterions and the "Tremors" Arrow set for me.

My favorite surprises this year:

lilboyblu · 12-02-2020, 03:47 AM

I never thought any of these would make it to Blu-ray.

LMFAObros · 12-02-2020, 03:50 AM

Hard Eight, War of the Worlds, Roman Holiday, Ordinary People are films I never thought would get aussie BD releases.

BluProofie · 12-02-2020, 03:53 AM

The Tenant from Scream.

DanTheMan · 12-02-2020, 04:00 AM

Followed closely by Just One of the Guys.

If I can only choose one, then it's Warner's CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN with a 4K remaster, 2 disc set! I really thought that would be stuck in limbo for an even longer time.

hasslein · 12-02-2020, 04:18 AM

Never thought it would be released with Kansas Carry on Wayward Son, first time ever

Original Ending

Theatrical cut never released on home video before

captainsolo · 12-02-2020, 04:21 AM

I thought Paramount starting up releasing again would be it...then Warner Archive released the restored Mystery of the Wax Museum which finally resolved the awful color issues of the dvd. I thought that film would never be fixed.

Then came the 4k scan of the woefully neglected Libeled Lady...and now Shop Around the Corner and Curse of Frankenstein.

WAC wins again.

Gerby · 12-02-2020, 04:34 AM

Fun City's release of...
