Yep several times and they generally get shipped before release and arrive in a week. Whilst the sales tax shows on ordering they don't normally charge it. Incredibles 2 just shipped without tax but if you want to be sure if you order the Rambo films in separate orders they are within the limits and no sales tax shows on the order and they are customs friendly.

Cheers for that. When you say customs friendly? Anything over £15 is charged customs, is that still so? Was looking at other titles, but some are just over the £15 threshold and would get stung with customs.

Fox takes care of their stuff at least and that's why they often have multiple audio options on their catalog material.

How many channels again?

Will the UHD versions be rentable on Vudu at any point?

Yes £15 is the max and I believe anything over that will be taxed. Order individually.

After Die Hard, Halloween and Uncle Drew this I my most anticipated release of the year. These will be on heavy rotation.

Fendergopher · 11-06-2018, 09:12 PM

Would be nice with a review that actually talks about the encoding and such.

I didn’t know you were anticipating Uncle Drew so much - my man!

Waiting to get my family together to watch it (maybe Thanksgiving)!

Most of my friends take American Thanksgiving giving off to watch football. I think I’ll watch First Blood if it arrives on time. Gotta get up early though on BF to pick up some cheap 4K’s.

That would be preposterous.

I'm confused, it didn't mention Dolby Vision once.

SpaceBlackKnight · 11-06-2018, 11:12 PM

Are these 4k remasters brand new SC restorations ala The Fog and others? Or are they based upon the older 4k masters used in this BD set https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Rambo...lu-ray/157428/

ROSS.T.G. · 11-06-2018, 11:24 PM

Yeah I thought these feature DV.

jess1581 · 11-07-2018, 12:40 AM

There better be some upgraded blu-rays coming out. Current ones are dated as hell.
