About time! One of the best from the 80s. Should be a major upgrade from the Blu. This film never fails to entertain.

I like this and Commando almost equally.

A Christmas Adjacent Classic!

This one needs to get a rigid case.

I actually prefer this, I wish Arrow would continue releasing all their limited editions like this: compact, no wasted space, and most importantly, uniform on the shelves.

To me, the perfect release from any label is something like this:

Slip (original artwork), Scanavo Case, Reversible Artwork (original/new artwork), Booklet, Poster, Disc(s).

Angel of the City!

My face just exploded.

I can't believe it's finally here. This is a huge get, and has been very high on my wants list since the 4k format kicked off.

If you had told me 30 years ago that we'd get so many editions of such shitty, reviled movies, there's no way I would have believed you. I can't help but feel like the market is getting oversaturated with re-releases.

Nick de Semlyen commentary should be good. His book, Last Action Heroes, was a lot of fun!

great constructive post

I'm in! Great entertaining 80s action flick, not to be taken too serioulsly. Recently watched the standard blu which is actualy very good quality but Arrow 4K is always welcome.

The one you don't want to have.

I shared my concerns about the flood of films getting re-released. Cobra, a film that only works in a drinking game sort of way, getting no less than three releases in the U.S. alone, leaves me concerned that the market is getting oversaturated with the same films over and over again. But with that, I still think the commentary by Nick de Semlyen would be a good listen.

So instead of saying something constructive or replying with your thoughts on the matter, you replied with a glib two-word response that's not even fit for Twitter.

The two hour cut would've been the release of the year, but I'm still excited.

Yeah, kind of a "wait for the right time" kind of buy without the new cut.

No Sly interview. Which, I don't blame the labels. Would it kill these people to actually speak about their films?

Does the 30 extra minutes of footage still exist?

Yeah! This is the announcement of the month for me! Probably my favorite Stallone film of all time!

Instant pre-order at ORBIT!

Yeah... I was hoping for that long lost legendary extended cut.

But I'll take the 4K UHD of the original for sure!

In this case... I'm REALLY hoping the inner sleeve is reversible with the OG art... because that new art is ATROCIOUS.

Show yourself out. Don't let the door hit you. On second thought...

I'll take "crappy Cobra" over most of what gets passed off as legit good movies today.
