Might have to import this...somehow I doubt it will see a U.S. release soon...

Am I reading that right? They're changing the title? What on earth for?

JonBidinger · 10-19-2009, 10:35 PM

I have been wanting to see this one for a while. Maybe this will get Lionsgate to pop it out stateside. Maybe they will see fit to include it in their next catalog wave. You know, speaking of Lionsgate I wonder why they are releasing Hamburger Hill on BD in the UK and not in the US. Hopefully, they release the Studio Canal Highlander release over here soon as well. Ha, throw these three flicks together and they have half a catalog wave ready to go.

This is an unconfirmed (according to IMDb) foreign title for the film, however, at least in the UK it has always been shown as Jacob's Ladder.

2.0 IS "Dolby Surround" for this Movie. but it will have English 5.1 also. (2.0 is original Mix)

The only release that is wort holding on to is the Japanese one. It has the highest bitstream, but the disc is too expensive at this point. I hope to god that Koch is doing justice for the movie with their compression because I'm pretty sure that the source is the same old master that has been used with all the previous releases from the movie. Anyway, I'm heading to Koch with this one, definitely.

russelsheim · 07-08-2020, 02:22 PM

So how is the Koch release?

Same old master as the Lionsgate, but Koch's has a different encode.

Odd that the outside case does not have UHD on it when there is a UHD disc inside.
