In 1971 a team of explorers and soldiers travel to an uncharted island in the Pacific, unaware that they are crossing into the domain of monsters, including the mythic Kong.

Preorder up at JB.

Beautiful artwork. I cant wait to see this at the drive-in on Friday night

jedidaniel · 03-21-2017, 03:55 AM

Day one buy for me. Love that artwork

StrayButler91 · 03-21-2017, 04:01 AM

I'm gonna be all over this like a fattie at a restaurant buffet. Will no doubt be 4K demo material!

BenjaminG · 03-21-2017, 05:42 AM

Was an excellent film. Day one for me too.

Davidian · 03-21-2017, 09:49 AM

Hmmm... Not seeing any local 3D release....

It had a 2K digital intermediate, so it won't be up there with the likes of The Revenant.

JB have now mentioned July 12th as the release date for Australia.

adamclark83 · 04-26-2017, 04:58 AM

I'll be buying it from the UK.

Is this because of your dislike for Roadshow?

Nice. Not too long of a wait. I didn't catch this at the cinema, even though I would have liked to.. I'm sure the BD+UHD release is going to be worth it.

Yes it is. Ever since the merging, all my WB titles are purchased from overseas.

I'd already seen the steelbook art from the best buy US thread, but I wish they'd used the 4K/3D art for the steel.

JB Hi-Fi have updated their listing mentioning the release date is now 19/07/17

They've also updated that if you pre-order, you get a paracord bracelet.

I'm not sure if I'd ever use one of these or not. It looks like it'll be branded so might look nice in the display cabinet with my other Blu-ray exclusive collectibles.

That may just be the laziest most boring preorder incentive I can remember.
