Does "Heat" deserve the Wizard of oz treatment? - Blu-ray Forum

richieb1971 · 10-12-2009, 11:28 PM

Ok, Heat isn't as well known as WOO, but its a modern classic. Its one of Warners most respected titles.

I think it deserves the WOO treatment myself, but there is this little devil whispering in my ear saying "its as bad as interview with a vampire"

I don't know how much exposure these threads get.. But if Warner is out there looking in. This title must be given respect. Please Warner.. don't screw us over on this one.

regards,

Richie.

Hopefully it's better than the DVD release. I have it and it's a bit too dark imo.

Yes,

1st disc

trailers

2nd disc

basically keep all the features from special edition dvd, add how this movie & michael mann influenced other movies & directors, actors etc

3 disc

"L.A. Takedown"
Michael Mann commentary

etc

Exactly what Stringer says, and in a double thickness plastic Blu-ray case without all of the OZ packaging nonsense.

L.A. Takedown is really terrible though. I have a copy and it's tough to get through, because you can really see how different interpretations can ruin a movie.

All of Michael Mann's movies have that dark bluish tint to them. I assume thats what you're talking about.

One of my favorite movies, I hope the blu release will be reference material.

jamesdevil · 10-13-2009, 12:18 AM

1st BD I can think of where I cared more how the film will sound than how it will look.

Are you trying to tell me Interview with a Vampire is a bad movie?

nathanp · 10-13-2009, 03:01 AM

Heat doesn't deserve the Wizard of Oz/Casablanca treatment, but a title that definitely does and hopefully gets it in 2010 is Lawrence of Arabia.

I thought you were wondering if Heat should be turned into a musical....

Kevin Holly · 08-23-2013, 07:35 PM

What exactly is "The Wizard of Oz" treatment? Because if it's good, Heat deserves it.

I'll go so far as to say Heat's the better film, or at least the one I'm more liable to be watching at any given time.

Abdrewes · 08-23-2013, 08:21 PM

Hell. Yes.
