I just want the film at a fair price. If I actually really wanted a soundtrack, I'd just buy it seperately. Edit: I also find it very difficult to get too excited about a cheap foldout poster reprint.

La La Land put out a soundtrack several years ago. It's still in print and available on their website. https://lalalandrecords.com/magic-limited-edition/

What happened to this, did it get canned? Can’t find it for sale anywhere

Got mine a couple of days ago direct from Second Sight too. Great release.

SymbioticFunction · 04-19-2020, 11:57 PM

I got mine from base.com. It arrived a few days before release day and I enjoyed watching it. Oddly it's not available there now. I also just looked at two price comparison sites and they weren't listing any sellers. Quite odd.

I guess buying direct from Second Sight is the only current option.

Probably due to Covid-19, noticed quite a few things suddenly disappear from Amazon over the past month.

Anyone seen this?

Will be released in February by a French boutique label I haven't heard of before (Rimini Editions).

This is the edition I own, it's the same transfer as the US and UK. Really enjoy this movie.

Dickieduvet · 02-07-2024, 01:04 PM

Watched this again recently, such a great film. Needs a 4K release.

Wintermute · 08-21-2025, 04:16 AM

Does anyone know if the Panasonic top-menu trick can get around the Region-B lock on this Second Sight disc?

Maybe I should just hold out for a 4K, anyway.

Firstly, because of the better PQ & AQ on the Second Sight release, as detailed in this review:

Secondly, because the best price I see for the U.S release is $19 from a 3rd-party seller on Amazon (including $4 shipping), whereas the Second Sight disc is available from Orbit for only 4 bucks more than that.

For years I have seen it going for $8CAD:

Same thing with Dark Sky's Dan Curtis' Dracule.
