I hope that gets a nice release one day... It's such a great time to be a fan of classic movies and physical media in general right now. It may not be the case but it feels like we are getting more good stuff these days than in recent years.

Maybe that'll come out a few weeks earlier.

There have been several occasions over the last few years where I was so close to buying the BD, but for some reason didn't it. Will definitely be picking this up.

This is great news. Always excited to pick up a new UHD that features my hometown.

Yep, has to be Shout Factory since the SKU is in their typical format. Puzzling thing is it only lists the 2.0 tracks as dubs and onoy English 5.1. HD source were probably provided or copyfied audio specs from the MGM BD.

Also, most studios release BD/UHD combo packs with digital codes and label releases rarely include them (unless its a smaller independent they also own digital rights to).

Weird that a December title would go up before their October / November titles?

Starman22 · 07-23-2022, 11:06 PM

Glad to heard coming to 4K UHD from Shout Factory and happy to add this in my collection and this is great movie. I'll be retire of my MGM Blu-ray (with a slipcover and a poster inside)

I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess they’re talking about the 4K’s coming out the same year not the theatrical release of the movies.

Oh right! Gotcha!

Have to admit The current Blu ray of this that you can pick up for cheap looks damn good

pnaschy · 07-24-2022, 08:42 AM

Can we have Young Sherlock Holmes on 4k next please.

Considering it’s never even come to 1080p Blu-ray (Spanish bootleg excepted), you might wanna bet on a different horse (though I share your enthusiasm for the film).

bergman864 · 07-24-2022, 03:02 PM

Shout! could give us a bunch of new extras, given that most of those involved are still around and kicking. But I do wonder about some issues popping up, this being SF and all.

A cursory glance at the studios involved has me believing they're likely the ones to release this.

By_His_Strypes · 07-24-2022, 03:12 PM

I think if it is Shout (it sure looks that way) it may get a release similar to that of Red Dawn...

Yeah, most likely a Shout Select title. Fargo 4K will be the same. The BB listing may be a premature listing of a BB exclusive Steelbook version, since it's the only title that leaked, rather than a whole slate (which is usually the case with retailer leaks).
