Stop spending my money!

Pre-ordered so fast I think I time travelled. It's Tuesday, right?

BunyipPouch · 10-01-2021, 02:34 PM

I have the bluray release of this but it's BD-R so I may be upgrading this...

sandman slim · 10-01-2021, 03:54 PM

Yep, got that same BD-R. Easy double dip, great film.

ShadeRF · 10-01-2021, 04:00 PM

Ordered this so fast. Love this movie and the soundtrack especially.

BluProofie · 10-01-2021, 04:19 PM

Really hope they do a pressed BD or 4K of Her Smell. That’s another Gunpowder and Sky title that got a BD-R.

"Her Smell" is terrific. That would be a nice choice. Also, I think "Below Her Mouth" and "Tragedy Girls" would make great 4k UHD blu rays.

Spooked · 10-01-2021, 04:30 PM

Oh god, I caved. That BD-R was bugging me...

GeoffOliver · 10-01-2021, 04:31 PM

Hopefully they release a standard edition without the special packaging sometime in the future. I haven’t seen it, but it looks cool, kinda like Stranger Things. At first I thought this was Summer of 85, which is a VERY DIFFERENT kind of movie. LOL

If Vinegar Syndrome has a deal with Gunpowder & Sky, I wonder if they’ll release Tragedy Girls.

They do have a regular edition up, but it's $32.99 instead of $37.99. I just went all-in. It's only $5.00, right?

Snicket · 10-01-2021, 04:52 PM

YES!

Gunpowder and Sky are doing some really amazing UHD work.

Great movie that will take you to places you don't expect. Speaking of expectations, it's not like Stranger Things. The main characters are young teenagers but they aren't nerdy, and other than it taking place in the '80s it doesn't rely on nostalgia. Stranger Things is a great show, but Summer of 84 isn't similar to that show at all.

The G&S limited editions are available, I’m sure VS can sometimes sell out quick.

TM2-Megatron · 10-02-2021, 06:18 AM

I've got the pressed German blu, but I'll definitely be upgrading. Wish I'd known Gunpoweder & Sky was going to partner with VS back then. Their 4K releases are really solid.

phobicsquirrel · 10-02-2021, 09:20 AM

Does it have reversible og cover art?

JackSkellington · 10-02-2021, 06:02 PM

Pre-ordered! Can't wait for this. Love the artwork.
