True Lies - Blu-ray Forum

buckeye1 · 09-27-2011, 02:35 AM

Does anyone know when or if True Lies will be officaly released on Bluray? I have not found any information on it. I would say its one of Arnold Schwarzenegger best work outside of T2. This deserves Bluray treatment.

It will be eventually, I'm guessing 2012 this should be available on BD

i agree, i'd love to see this on blu... and jamie lee curtis was still hot in this one

This is one I'd really like to see, even if it doesn't get much effort put into it. I'm pretty sure all of the DVDs have been 2.35:1 and non-anamorphic (which doesn't look too great!)

That's why I never upgraded my Laserdisc...

As much as I love Bill Paxton as "Chet", he is a lot of fun to watch in True Lies.

buckeye1 · 09-27-2011, 03:17 AM

Even if they don't release True Lies (which I'm sure they will) they could always make it a double feature...True Lies/Eraser. Which is another Arnold film I love. He has so many that needs to be blurayed.....<-----

Not really....sorry

Downloaded the 'HD'

version from the PSN last night. Ugh! What a horrible, murky, barely-above-DVD transfer it was.

Don't bother with this one, and if they use the same transfer for the BD, don't bother with that either. It boggles the mind that the only release this has had in the past 14 years is a non-anamorphic laserdisc-port in the US and a censored DVD in the UK.

There is polish DVD edition which is 2.35:1 and anamorphic. Looks quite good.

TheOneWithThePrize · 12-04-2011, 08:47 AM

I can only recommend the Japanese DVD of True Lies, it is anamorphic, has DTS 5.1 in at least one of its editions and you won't have to deal with any PAL speed-up issues like the above mentioned rare uncut UK DVD or the Polish DVD.

Lehnhart · 01-23-2012, 07:23 PM

I want this on blu-ray. One of Arnold's better films...Terminator, T2, Predator, Commando are my favorites. I would definitely pick this one up.

avexhype · 01-24-2012, 07:26 PM

yup.

Where did you get the Japanese DTS 5.1 version from...I'm tired of waiting. This is one reason I primarily went "region free". I'm tired of all these games with different aspect ratios from different regions.

For instance, I own "stand and deliver" on DVD from Australia, and it seems to be the only version that's 1.85:1 widescreen that I'm aware of.

Also, now it looks as if the studios are coming out with "widescreen" DVD box set's, of previous released titles that had non-anamorphic or Full screen transfers, that can only be acquired via these newer box sets.

formula72 · 01-24-2016, 12:47 AM

Grabbed the Japanese version....Very nice picture and sound.......about time!!!!

For those waiting on the Bluray, if you can find the Japanese DVD, I recommend it to hold you over ((( as long as you have a region free DVD player )))
