One of my favorite movies. Will definitely get this. Just checked and I don't see a blu ray of this in my collection. I thought for sure I already had it.

Assuming this one will include the remastered disc instead?

That’s what I’m thinking. Not sure I would really need to get it as I already have the Mondo steel with the remastered disc in it.

That's the only way I will get it. Otherwise it is useless.

It might just be the overstock Target couldn't get rid off.

But it would be a perfect chance to make it a 4K/w Newest remasrtered BD Disc combo.

But, that would make too much sense.

re-issue? There can only be one.

Could they or even should they attempt a 4K of older movies? Would it make it look better or worse? I don't know enough about the subject, but I'm not sure how an older movie would look with a 4K treatment.

Because traditional film has a significantly higher resolution than the digital format and if scanned and restored at 4K or more can easily benefit from the 4K format even more so than a lot of modern films that are generally finished at only 2 or 3k and the 4K release tends to be an upconvert which is controversial with some people. Highlander was restored and remastered at 4K probably with a future 4K release in mind.

I was just about to order this on eBay, so glad I waited.

mitthrawnuruondo · 10-16-2017, 04:35 PM

Awesome news if it comes with the re-mastered disk. I was going to buy the re-master on amazon last weekend but really wanted the steel. this may be just the ticket for me

HanShotFirst · 10-22-2017, 04:42 PM

It's a re-issue, and shows release date of Dec 01, 2015 now...$19.99 available to add to your cart for those who haven't picked up yet...

They actually have a 4K trailer of the new restoration on YouTube... And it looks *GORGEOUS* on a 4K TV. Lionsgate may be one of the stronger companies when it comes to catalog titles on 4K, but not so much films before 2000... That seems to be Sony's wheelhouse. Here's hoping that'll change eventually. But I may still grab this steelbook

hockeyshark91 · 10-22-2017, 05:10 PM

Missed out on the first release of this so I'll grab it now. If it's not the re-mastered, I can always get that at a later time and swap out the discs.

Heapashifter · 10-22-2017, 09:15 PM

When it was a Target exclusive in late 2015 it was $14.99 in store. They shouldn't charge more now. Bad decision.

Placed an order then changed it to in store pickup to drop it down to $13.99.
Couldn't pass it up for that price.

jimjimmyjones85 · 11-06-2017, 01:50 PM

So not re-mastered right?

Why does the Kurgan look like he's wearing lipstick and eye shadow?
