Friday the 13th: 8-Movie Collection (1980-1989)

[gunnerg]

Paramount makes such lovely 4k uhd disc releases + they paid their Dolby Vision dues! Jeez, I hope this is a glimmer of hope for this to happen to Friday the 13th. At least 1-4! They would sell so much better than this "what the ?" set will. A much larger percentage of live buyers who already bought the Scream Factory collection. It's simple. They must have blocked Scream Factory from 4k rights for a reason. Must be coming...

The small print on Amazon says it will only have the theater cut of part 1. Since the uncut was on a separate disc in the Scream box, I believe this. Unless they are making new discs, you should get the real 3D for 3 as it's just one disc in the box, and the newly found footage from part 2 at least.

I saw this posted by DVD News Flash on Facebook page earlier and already re-release from Paramount again! Weird!... And I see come with Digital code too

This is NOT bad new cover at all. I don't like 2018 cover of Friday the 13th Collection from Paramount.

Yikes, no way. Krasinsky's an awful director.

They could easily strip the 3D out of the disc re-authoring one in 2D only and i have a feeling that is what they are going to do.

Seems likely as wouldn't Paramount have to create new discs to remove all the Scream Factory logos anyways? I'm pretty sure that's what Miramax did with the Producer's Cut of Halloween VI, which I'm pretty sure Scream Factory released first for their Halloween set.

I guess Paramount did the 4K scans and provided them to Shout? I wonder if Shout was more or equally-not-involved with the 3D restoration as well. Not that I think Paramount would necessarily include it here if they did restore it all themselves.

[Jar Jar Stinks]

Last fall, I paid $13.99 for this one.



At $76 for the new Paramount set, the Shout Factory set makes a lot more sense at only $40 more... unless you're desperate for the digital copies.

Welll this new one has an MSRP price of $76 just like the one you payed $14 for, and is usually set firm at $25, has an MSRP of $40.

I still guess this isn't going to launch higher than $60 and will probably be quick to settle at $50 for a while.

Too many numbers, I'm feeling dizzy.

Yeah I know, a huge price increase. Must be for the red case...

Shout improved the color timing of Part 6 in their set, didn't they? I wonder which version will be in Paramount's set. Probably the old color timing with the murky greens.

Yep.

Probably the old double feature disc.

The prices are always high when something is first announced. The closer it gets to release date it will drop in price.

Yeah, but it doesn't always drop as much as you hope.

Digging this new re-release.

Single-disc version of F13 also coming:

So it appears that this disc will contain ONLY the theatrical version on disc (albeit with the new 4K transfer) while containing a digital code for the unrated version (same for the 8-film set).

Very easy pass in that case.

It’s cool they’re using the original poster for the artwork.

[Han Solo 1977]

I wonder why Paramount never uses any of the original poster or VHS style artwork for any of its Friday blu ray releases. You know, the artwork that was such an integral part of the series identity. Instead it’s always this really lazy blood red photoshopped crap that looks like it was cut and pasted in 2 minutes tops.
