no probs
the US 35th was same as UK 35th

only the later released US Boxset got the mono,

apparently the Spanish release also has orig mono too

yeh I noticed some at till in Glasgow HMV for £4.99 with any purchase
picked it up and thought should I get for the slip, could maybe put on my SB, but decided not to bother
have US UHD ordered so that will do for me

Yes, it's this one and it's a cracking disc.

mmm tempting, but not for me
no HDR and I prefer the 7.1 track anyway.......

SymbioticFunction · 09-25-2018, 03:27 PM

I'm happy with my cheap purchase of this re-issue but it's nice that there is a region b option for the folks who require original mono.

Out of curiosity, is this a BD-R or a pressed disc? I'd prefer a licensed release instead of this Resen bootleg...

Proper pressed BD50.

It's not. It's a plain bootleg, so pressed.

Mithrandir-Grey · 09-25-2018, 07:35 PM

Just in case anyone doesn’t know, you don’t have to purchase anything else to get it for 4.99 in store at least. It goes for anything else in that offer as well despite what it says. I picked it up for 4.99 yesterday. It just scans at that price.

No, it's literally the same video encode as the Shout disc I think.

DTSBOY · 09-30-2018, 05:33 PM

I could swear that I seen this on sale in Sainsburys for a fiver. I should've bought it. I wasn't paying that much attention I'll admit.

jimdigriz. · 09-30-2018, 08:46 PM

I got the US 4k disc the other day. Looks pretty good but as with most UHD whether the upgrade is worth it will be down to personal preference. But it was under £15 from Wow. They opted to include the old Bluray edition which I think was to ensure you got all the extras. The 90 minute documentary is on the Bluray but the UHD also has a one hour Jamie Lee Curtis thing about her attending conventions.
I'm going to watch it this week in an attempt to watch the entire series by the time the day arrives. I've had the US 15 disc set for a long time so it deserves to be viewed at last

Hi 8m now confused with this Amazon say it 40TH Anniversary but on menu on disc it says 35TH Anniversary.so this not 40Th Anniversary with new Transfer ? So I'm guessing Lionsgated used the old 35Th Transfer ?

Graphic_Delusions · 10-01-2018, 12:46 PM

Great looking set from Amazon today. Not sure if other retailers include the lobby cards.

Yep, it's an exact clone of the 35th anniversary disc.

noice

think artcards are 4k/BD UK exclusive, not retailer as available at HMV too
but the US 4k/BD didn't get them or the UK BD

matthew218 · 10-01-2018, 12:55 PM

Does anyone know if the UK 4K release comes with the 2007 BD or the 35th/40th anniversary disc? Thanks
