Alien 4K UHD (1979) (40th Anniversary Edition) - Page 31 - Blu-ray Forum

Oh. That explains it.

This book should be apart of the packaging for the UHD disc.

But hey, we'll still probably get an Aliens 4K before we get True Lies or The Abyss on Blu.

Common sense.. If people show interest when Alien 4k is released, then they will release Aliens.

I’ll have that book day one. I have all the OT Star Wars books he did and they are great. It’s too bad his Force Awakens book was buried by Lucasfilm. Hopefully it will see the light of day sometime.

I'm still wanting to get Giger's Alien Diaries book:

It's a near three pound, 650+ page book featuring personal notes, sketches, and photos from Giger himself.

But it comes with a hefty price of over $100.

One of these days it'll be mine.

Geoff D · 12-30-2018, 02:05 PM

If I'd known about that ^ earlier I'd have gladly spunked a ton on that rather than the Taschen Star Wars Trilogy book. (My point being they'd cost me about the same but in hindsight I know which one I'd rather have)

koberulz · 12-30-2018, 02:23 PM

I'm guessing I'd probably prefer the Star Wars book as 99% chance that doesn't have a spine that's going to piss me off.

TOP TO BOTTOM, PEOPLE!!!

Geoff D · 12-30-2018, 02:39 PM

Surprised you can see it from that far away

$85 (if anyone’s interested).

No, you have to buy Alien 4k first then they'll release the rest.

I brought the Matrix then they come out with a box

Sucks so, I brought the single 4k versions, Smh….Whatever!!

I had to learn this lesson too. I'm still waiting for the prices on the Matrix sequels to drop down before I buy them.

UberMensch · 12-30-2018, 11:40 PM

I’d be happy if they released them separately to be honest.

Me too, because I would just want to upgrade Alien & Aliens.

So just Aliens then.

hairlesswookiee · 12-31-2018, 01:45 AM

I'd probably get the first 3 if they released them individually.

I honestly wouldn't mind if they threw in Prometheus and Covenant as part of the set. Throw in that meaty special features disc for Prometheus as well.

zw94 · 12-31-2018, 05:42 AM

I want everything in 4K except for Resurrection, AVP, AVPR, and Covenant.

Covenant is a good movie.
Saw yesterday in 4K and the image is great with good hdr

nekromantik · 12-31-2018, 11:25 AM

Covenant looks stunning in UHD.
It was a let down but it was far from worse in franchise.
My list would be:

Alien/Aliens
Alien 3 Assembly Cut
Prometheus
Covenant
Alien Resurrection
