Paramount Presents

Sorry but To Catch a Thief needs a UHD release at this point, not another bluray reissue, even a nice one like this.

[1924]

This is nice but where are the UHD’s? What

[Cremildo]

Wake me up when they announce Ordinary People and Hud.

I'd say it's a given. The other two (Fatal Attraction and King Creole) have 4K DCPs and were made available in 4K digitally within the last month.

If I had to make a wildly uneducated guess, all of these will use 4K restorations and will be made available in 4K digitally. As far as the likely titles, I think the titles listed with 4K DCPs at Park Circus are a good starting point:

I’m also glad “Airplane!” is getting a remaster. I re-watched the Paramount disc recently and it’s decent for an older master but there’s room for improvement. I wonder if a remastered “Ferris’s Bueller’s Day Off” will appear in the line and the supposed Criterion that John Kapelos let slip years ago got canned.

I'm very excited to see how this turns out. I never picked up To Catch a Thief or Airplane, so I am in for those. I'm certainly ready to upgrade my DVDs of Pretty in Pink and The Golden Child as well.

Good - that means we won't have to wait years.

I'm fairly excited about this new line. It'll probably be mostly double dips but if we get fresh scans it'll be worth it.

Besides what's already been mentioned (C'mon Roman Holiday!), I'd like to throw in a mention for The Shootist and Paint Your Wagon.

The Shootist because it's a good film, Paint Your Wagon because it's not. But both should be available on Blu.

Fantastic news. Much better announcement than their recent "BD-R reissue" line...

[Ant1010]

Heres hoping for Summer School, Bad News Bears, Snow Day, Good Burger, A Night at the Roxbury, Necessary Roughness and Orange County

[HD Goofnut]

Paramount?! You listening?!

[MechaGodzilla]

This makes me a very happy boy.

[abudgell]

Keeping my fingers crossed for Blu-rays derived from the 4K scans of A Place in the Sun and Romeo and Juliet (1968) (there are existing DCPs), as well as Roman Holiday.

[tangerinewolf]

Wow, didn't see this coming! So now we have Scream Factory with a Paramount deal; Imprint Australia with a Paramount deal; and now Paramount is going to release their own product as well?

It's going to be a another guessing game for us consumers as to who is going to release what. But another quality entity is always welcome.

[Luke Dodge748]

I'd say Friday the 13th is "culturally important"... I'd rather see Scream Factory do something with it but this could make it to the Paramount Presents line.

They've been hinting at this since late last year. I guess this line is what they meant.

The Tenant and American Beauty, please.

The blu-ray took the extras from the Centennial Collection release, but they dropped a previously available commentary with Peter Bogdanovich and Laurent Bouzereau.
