Total Recall: 20th Anniversary Special Edition - Blu-ray Forum

uk-guy · 02-26-2010, 12:31 PM

up for pre-order on 14/06/10 @play.com £17.99

i wonder what's so special about this version

reworked video?
more extras?
steelbook?

hopefully all of the above.

I'd like to believe that they've used a new master or have reworked the transfer, but I supect it will be nothing a rehashed set of extras and fancy packaging. If that is the case Play's price of £17.99 doesn't look too clever...

...and just noticed it has a DD 5.1, which can't be right.

Much as I'd love to see the unrated cut I suspect it'll just have the extras bumped up to those of the double disc DVD

I will wait and see if any information on a new master pops up.

An example of two titles from the same studio:
Stargate 15th Anniversary got a new master.
Terminator 2 skynet edition did not get a new master just had the old one tweaked.

It can go either way realy.

This is intriguing;

Looks like they're releasing a steelbook version of Total Recall in Germany in June, which also purports to be remastered. We can only hope that the edition in Play.com has the same transfer...

the steelbook alone wouldn't prompt me to buy it but. I am really hoping for a new master but if both were to happen then I am sold and its mine
