The Time Machine (1960) Blu-ray - Blu-ray Forum

Quote:

Here today, gone to tomorrow. When George (Rod Taylor) sits at the controls of his new creation, he has all the time in the world. He's invented a Time Machine that whisks him from 1899 to war ravaged moments of the 20th century and into 802701. In that far-off era, passive Eloi face a grim future as prey to the glowing subterranean Morlocks...unless the time-traveling stranger from the past intervenes.

At the controls of the movie H.G. Wells' classic The Time Machine is effects trailblazer George Pal, whose features and short films won a combined seven Oscars and Special Awards. One winner was this beloved adventure loaded with visual marvels, from the nuclear destruction of London (complete with lava eruption) to the colorful whirligig of time trave

IMDB - 7.6 ( 21,480 users )

Rotten Tomatoes - 76% ( 34 reviews counted )

Day one buy. One of my childhood favorites and other than some of the special effects, held up incredibly well when I watched it on Vudu recently (thank you D2D). I can't wait.

Every one of those late 50's early 60's sci-fi films are worth having on Blu-ray to me. Definitely going to get this one immediately.

Yes!!!

duggie walker · 11-29-2013, 12:32 PM

Good news. It would make sense to release TIME AFTER TIME alongside it.

HD Goofnut · 11-29-2013, 12:38 PM

About damn time. Maybe Rod Taylor could record a new commentary.

Sinbad75 · 11-29-2013, 02:28 PM

Fabulous news indeed! Made my day and my wish list! Now if we can just get Disney to release "20,000 Leagues" all four of my forever must have films will finally be out on Blu-ray! Merry Christmas!

dsman71 · 11-29-2013, 02:40 PM

Great news but it wont replace my collectors set - but I will gladly get this Day One

jvorhees · 11-29-2013, 03:10 PM

Great news and a day one purchase for me as well! One of my favourite films and books.

Pirate King · 11-29-2013, 03:14 PM

This will be fun. Gotta have this one!!

EricJ · 11-29-2013, 03:28 PM

Oh, well, nice to see the WAC let ONE of the George Pals out (and the Holy Grail we were most worried about...)
Does this mean we can start some hostage negotiations to free The Seven Faces of Dr. Lao?

The Great Owl · 11-29-2013, 03:48 PM

Outstanding!

This really is one of the Holy Grail films out there that I have been wanting to see upgraded to Blu-ray. I have a lifelong love for this one, and will be buying the Blu-ray on day one.

MEB · 11-29-2013, 04:22 PM

One more DVD in the collection that I can swap for Blu-ray! Yeah!

HeavyHitter · 11-29-2013, 05:51 PM

I've been waiting on this for a while, as well.

jws · 11-29-2013, 08:49 PM

I'm definitely going to buy this. I really hope that WAC/WB will release War of the Worlds sometime in the near future.
