[MrClarke]

This is getting a 4K release from Turbine Media, released January 21, 2022. Three separate media book covers.

Cover 1

Cover 2

Cover 3

Not a great movie but, still fun. The bad CGI is what hurts the movie the most, and i'm sure it won't translate well on 4k. I still wouldn't mind having a physical copy of this though. I prefer cover 1 the most.

I honestly haven’t seen it since it first came out. Lol. I figured I’d revisit it though since it’s getting a release. I’ve been interested in rewatching it before but you can’t find it anywhere

I saw it at the theaters, and maybe 1 or 2 more times on cable.

What makes the CGI in Paris so much worse is that it doesn't remotely match what the prosthetic wolves look like. It should have been one or the other, not both.

Never seen this one. Obviously the original is a classic. Gonna check it out and see if it's worth it. For anyone else looking to watch it, it's streaming on PlutoTV & Tubi right now.

Good chance VinSyn will also be putting this out in the US since the 4k HDR was a joint venture with Turbine and Filmrise owns US distribution rights (which were previously with Disney/Hollywood Pictures but their rights had lapsed).

Agreed!

I sure hope VS puts it out. That would be an instant buy for me.

Ordered it with cover A, this will be a big upgrade over my old dvd. Not as good as London but I still like it.

I'm sure they will now that I've pulled the trigger on this.

Haven't seen this since theaters where I remember being pleasantly surprised. Excited to revisit.

I was amazed by how much I liked this movie after hearing it described as a war crime for years. It’s not London, but I’d be lying if “what if you had An American Werewolf In London but mixed in the DNA of Good Burger for shits and giggles” doesn’t already speak to me off rip.

To those who have the remastered BD and 4k, curious to know if it opens with ether a Hollywood Pictures logo (since Turbine got access to the OCN probably from Disney despite not owning it anymore) or a J&M indent (who were the international distributors). Turbine said they used an interneg for the credits and CG sections so I have a feeling they sourced them from one made for international markets.

Arrived in the mail today. 4K looks good so far and the Blu-ray included is not region B locked. Only briefly glanced at the extras which include a work print cut of the film along with the music video for Bush.

[Darmok1004]

The music during the end credits has been changed. The dvd I have ends with them going up the Statue of Liberty and then Mouth by Bush starts playing during the credits. New 4K has another song playing and plays Mouth later on during the credits.

Even though I hadn't seen this since theaters, I turned to my wife as the credits rolled and said, "where's Mouth?" It does play later in the credits, but I thought this was weird too. Glad someone else acknowledged it.

No logo at all... you click play and the movie starts without any studio logo.

I made a thread for this last year...

Considering there are no logos in this print, I wonder if it's an international print and the music change was due to the print.
Considering Disney and Hollywood aren't mentioned at all, that could help explain why its during the credits instead of being at the beginning of the credits.
