This is amazing to see after Twilight Time was always saying studios will never release these movies again and only selling 3,000 is the way to turn a profit. I guess the home video market is better than it was a few years ago? This is why I stopped supporting Twilight Time and their over priced releases

Or its a BD-R under the Choice Collection since it took nearly the full three year contract for the Twilight Time disc to sell out.

Then again it says Universal and well, Universal distributes for Sony in the UK, so this could be something else.

I am really hoping its a Choice Collection disc.

Saving money. Still have Japanese version and not worth double dipping yet.

Deleted scenes! Hopefully we will get a 4K remaster too.

It's good they are including the extras that were on the Twilight Time blu-ray but were missing from the first Sony blu-ray (the Nora Ephron audio commentary and theatrical trailer).

New for this anniversary edition are the deleted scenes. For those who feel cheated by Twiight Time's release, that disc has an exclusive isolated score that is not on this disc.

Sony to Twilight Time: "Screw you"

I didn't want it myself but I always thought it was weird that something so well known and talked about only got a limited edition release. Also nice that it's not a BD-R because that crap needs to be stopped.

InuYashaCrusade · 05-18-2018, 11:10 PM

I'll pick a copy up when it hits $10 bucks or less.

I was happy with my AUS release. I loved my TT reelase and I'm sure the Anniversary release will join it soon enough if there is anything new/better attached

I doubt it will be the same transfer. Sony has been creating new 4k masters for Anniversary editions and potential UHD discs.

It doesn't matter how Twilight Time feels, it's Sony's baby they can do what they want with it and how they want with it. Twilight Time has no say, it's a Sony product. It was always out of place with the limited to 3,000 copies model anyway this is a very popular movie as is "As Good As It Gets". Sony should have just released it themselves. Twilight Time got lucky they were able to release it briefly tbh.

On the one hand, I want to support special editions. On the other, it's BS that this isn't getting a 4k. I don't feel like spending the upgrade money on it.

rdodolak · 05-18-2018, 11:56 PM

This appears to be a MOD release, but it's not known at this time if it will be pressed or a BD-R like their previous MOD releases.

The official Blu-ray logo is on the packaging, which means this is pressed. BD-R releases can’t display it, so they usually just say “Blu-ray Disc” at the top.

I'm leaning more toward the pressed route given the current cover art (not sure where Amazon retrieved it from) and the lower price point ($24.99 vice $26.99). However, this would be the first pressed MOD Blu-ray disc from Sony through the Allied Vaughan Media On Demand program to my knowledge.

I want this but I’m unsure in case they push out a 4K later. I don’t understand the point of remastering a release in 4K and just putting it out in 1080p. It’s mind boggling.

As I understand it, remastering in 4k is done for a more source accurate 1080p release since each pixel is drawing information from four different pixels instead of one. Many films are shot at a higher resolution than their intended exhibition for the same reason.

Releasing a 1080p disc from a 4k master is no different from a DVD being released from a 1080p master back in the day.
