Recently revisited my DVD thinking this was never getting to Blu ray..anyway very nice.

DNSK · 07-09-2021, 02:52 AM

Yes! Keep the 80’s classics coming!

SpaceBlackKnight · 07-09-2021, 06:20 AM

I believe Warner did a new 2k scan for this, so it would look infinitely better than that jagged HD master on digital now.

Finally!

This looks like a movie I would enjoy. 80s fun?

It is quintessentially 80's.

The music, Bobcat Goldthwait, a love triangle between a 5 and two 10's...

I know it’s pre-boob job, but I don’t think it’s fair to call Demi Moore a 5.

No jaggies on the Itunes HD version. Looks great. But most services like Vudu still only have it in SD which is probably what you are referring to.

They must be on a newer transfer then, and yes it's still SD at most other places. The version I saw on Prime Video a few years ago was in HD, but looked just as bad as the original Lethal Weapon 1&2 BDs.

Funny enough, Amazon now has The Awakening in HD and uses a completely different HD transfer than the old Warner DVD and the new SF Blu. There was a TCM 1080i HDTV out there that used the transfer made for the Warner DVD, but that was riddled with aliasing and analog video noise, suggesting a possible upscale of some sort.

Both are so good it's hard for me to say which I prefer. I've seen Better Off Dead way more, especially in recent years as it's been on blu ray forever.

But I saw One Crazy Summer first, and wore out my taped VHS copy. (I still get that old HBO intro music in my head from time to time.)

They're easily my two favorite 80's movies, anyway.

meremortal · 07-09-2021, 06:52 AM

Not sure if I've seen this one, but it looks fun.

Been waiting for this forever. Bought the digital ages ago as it was the only way to see it in HD. Looking forward to this, which will hopefully look better.

dobyblue · 07-09-2021, 11:00 AM

Finally get to add this to my shelf beside Better Off Dead, sweet.

I love "Better Off Dead", this one is okay. It would be nice if we could get a John Cusack blu-ray collection.
