Best way to know about a re-release? - Blu-ray Forum

Often when I'm browsing the upcoming releases I find titles that have already been released. When I click on them I can't find any information on why it is being released again. Am I missing something on the site or is there a good place to find out why a particular movie is being released on Blu again?

An example is The Muppets which is releasing on 1/17.

It's almost always a repackaging. If there is a new transfer it will usually be discussed on the weekly release blog or more often than not there will be a lively discussion about said release on the forums.

I keep a list of superior re-releases for the U.S. if that helps: https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=232493
