That is awesome! Guaranteed no extras, but I can live with that.

Yep another good day for Bronson fans.

Yeah I wish there was more information on the Happinet blu, I am tempted to import but it is mighty expensive.

And from what I read about it, there is only a Japanese and French track...... the English track is missing.

Well that would make it an instant no go for me.

Same here, the English language version on the StudioCanal UK DVD is nice.

This has probably been asked but hard to search for. The Death Wish 3-pack is the same 3 discs as the standalone Death Wish 2-4, right?

Correct!

My Bronson Blu-ray(1080p) collection is nearly complete.

I have the German blu-rays of "Assassination, Cabo Blanco, Red Sun, From Noon till Three" and they´re nearly all very very good. Picture quality is fine with the exception of "Cabo Blanco"(could be much better).

I have the ITunes 1080p versions of "Rider on the Rain"(the picture quality is as great as on the Japanese blu-ray), The Stone Killer, Breakout, Chato´s Land", Murphy´s Law, Messenger of Death. All in 1080p and all with an excellent picture quality.

I´ve got also the ITunes 1080p version of "Telefon". You can find the movie in HD on the French ITunes Store but the picture quality is not as good as the titles above but still better as the lousy US-DVD.

I have the Italian blu-ray of "Violent City" and I have the Japanese blu-ray of "The Valachi Papers".

I´ve got the French blu-ray of "Chino" and the picture quality is great.

"Kinjite" will be released in the US by Olive films in October.

So there´re not many Bronson blu-rays I´m waiting for in the future because either I´ve already got them in 1080p or they won´t get released.

I´m convinced they´re no plans within the next 2 years that there will release: The Evil that Men Do, Love and Bullets, Borderline.

The reason for that is because the labels like Shout Factory(Borderline, Love and Bullets") and Hen´s Tooth Films(The Evil that Men Do)don´t like Bronson, otherwise they would release those films.

Shout Factory! told me on facebook, that there´re no plans to release "Love and Bullets" and "Borderline". They even released those movies in 1,33:1 Fullscreen on blu-ray
Do I have to say more?

Hen´s Tooth Films who own the rights on "The Evil that Men Do" told me on blu-ray there also no plans to release that film on blu-ray


Therefore there´re only 4 titles who hopefully will be released in the next 2 years:

St.Ives(in the US), Cold Sweat and Someone behind the door, Adieu L`Ami(hopefully in France).

I´m quite sure Bronson´s collaboration with Tony Curtis"You can´t win `em all" won´t get a release either because that movie is not so known in the world.

Is the German Red Sun Region Free?

Been over a year and I cannot find it for less than $13. 😕 I would have grabbed it on release day if there were some extras, but not for a "40th anniversary" release that only has the movie.....

You can't afford the difference?

I don´t know because the single release of "Red Sun" will be released in mid November in Germany:

http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B011...f_rd_i=Desktop

It was released in Germany a couple of months ago in a box with two other films and the box was Code B.

But if you´re interested in that title, I read that it will also be released in the UK in a couple of weeks

Maybe even codefree but I don´t know.....

thanks! I'll keep an eye out for it. I recently watched it on YouTube (yeah I know) and loved it. Really really want to own it on Blu.

Woah, what region is Rider on the Rain available in? I'd love to see it in HD but it's not on US iTunes...

We need a US release of Rider on the Rain sourced from the same print as the Japanese transfer.

As I wrote it, you can find "Rider on the Rain" on ITunes France in 1080p. The picture quality is as great as the Japanese blu-ray because the guy who burnt the disc for me did a comparison between the Japanese blu-ray and the ITunes France 1080p version and the picture looked the same.

I've posted this y-day in the TT thread, but I'll share it here too.

During the recent KillerPOV podcast, Nick Redman has revealed that TT will be releasing Murphy's Law. No word on release date, yet.

I read your post yesterday. Great news though I already have the 1080p ITunes version.

I love it that Twilight likes Bronson so much. It´s a pity they don´t have the rights to release "The Evil that Men Do" though.

[Hard Times Chaney]

Murphy's Law? Awesome!

seagal, will you buy it anyway?
