USA Stand By Me (1986) (30th Anniversary) BB pre-order


Stand by Me Blu-ray



Knowing Sony, the date is probably wrong, but maybe it will happen this year. Here's hoping for a 4K remaster, though.

Stand By Me is one of my all-time favorite movies.

The existing Blu-ray, which is a 25th Anniversary release, is quite beautiful in terms of picture quality and it serves the purpose with regard to audio quality, so I'm not expecting anything different. I'll gladly double-dip if there is a 4K remaster, though.

The current Blu-ray is already derived from a recent 4K remaster, and it looks gorgeous. One of the best Blu-rays of an 80's film out there.

Probably a simple reissue to include a UV copy.

Can anyone confirm that the current release is sourced from a 4K scan? I can't find anything about it. Also, I just read a press release from the '11 and there isn't any mention of the 4K restoration.

But, yeah, if the current release is indeed sourced from a 4K scan, then it's suffice to say that this will be just a lazy re-issue. Maybe with a couple of new extras.

Were there any deleted scenes on this? There really is no reason for a re-release.

Yeah, I saw that. But I was pointing out that the source is the BB and that Sony is prone to delaying titles (Little Women, Crouching Tiger etc.).

As for the comment below, just a cheap shot by a malice guided pest, and my long time fan.

This is my all time favourite movie and my wife and kids know this. ..
Because I'm a man who has everything, I'm hard to buy for , so I have multiple copies of this in various formats.

I'm sure this new edition will be mine at my next father's day, birthday, anniversary. .lol..

I just keep my movie soundtracks in their own series of media towers...I would never want to separate them from the original packaging and liner notes.

I do stick DVD copies of movies in with the Blus if the DVDs have exclusive extras. Saves a lot of shelf space.
