Just announced at Comic Con

If it’s not a new 4K scan, I’m not sure it will get anyone to double dip. Both leads are dead so I’m not sure what kind of extras they can do.

erixon20 · 07-21-2019, 03:45 AM

I like and own the BR-curious to see what they do with this.

Maybe they’ll include the other 12 film versions, since it’s one of the most re-made film in history.

I’d love to see the Fatty Arbuckle version but I think it’s still lost.

I have the old blu of this, it’s average looking but perfectly watchable , they’ll need something special for a double dip

B-52 Bass · 07-21-2019, 10:06 AM

I can't wait for Bustin' Loose on Blu

robtadrian · 07-21-2019, 10:22 AM

One of the most abrupt endings of a film...hope there's an alternate cut! Maybe a Walter Hill commentary?

jmspls72 · 07-21-2019, 01:21 PM

I clicked the link in this thread

Unfortunately Brewster millions is a select Blu ray edition so don’t expect much if any additional special feature.

What a bummer think I will pass

DenOfEarth · 07-21-2019, 11:18 PM

Can't wait to get this since it has extras.

Saw this at the movies when i was 4 in a dollar theater and been one of my fave comedies.

Weird I’ve seen it loads of times and never thought it abrupt

The Geek · 07-22-2019, 01:01 AM

Yeah I've seen this movie quite a few times and the ending never felt abrupt.

As much as I love this one I probably won't double dip.

DanTheMan · 07-22-2019, 01:38 AM

I was just thinking about this film the other day too and how I was interested in revisiting it. Guess now I can look forward to owning it.

gates70 · 07-22-2019, 03:26 AM

Never bought the original BD so I'll get this.

DVD Josh · 07-22-2019, 04:13 AM

I found my BD copy at 7-11. One of my favorite movies of all time.

SpaceBlackKnight · 07-22-2019, 04:16 AM

Isn't the current Blu based on a recent 2k master by Universal? It look unusually natural and lacks the extreme grain scrubbing and EE that plagues others like Uni's Weird Science and The Wizard.

NeMo_ET · 07-23-2019, 11:35 AM

Great movie, but not sure what they could add to justify their pricing. It seems like the previous release is readily available too.

borjis · 07-23-2019, 05:21 PM

I remember seeing this at the theater on the last day of school growing up.
Always like this one.

It was on cable this past sunday morning. Watched it, looked good.

Starman22 · 08-07-2019, 12:31 AM

About time! I still don't have Universal Blu-ray yet and One day for me. Both late Richard Pryor and John Candy are my favorite actor and sadly to see no longer with us
