Great news. Thanks Bruce

Sweet. Great news. Really can't wait to upgrade this one.

Hoping Media Blasters/Tokyo Shock gives us more of previously released films on blu.

Back up and kickin', O ye of little faith.

I know, right? Could have been an unmarked slot we could pop open for this.

I have plenty of open slots since I sold off the DVDs from my combo set.

I'm so happy this is coming out!! I was really bummed that it wasn't part of the Criterion set; figured it would be lost for good if they couldn't acquire it.

This was my introduction to the whole series. Had a foreign exchange student hip me to this in the summer of '92 or '93 I think... This and Predator were in the VCR a LOT that summer! Shout out to Yoshi

I know, wish I could have grabbed that but couldn't rustle up the funds until the Blu only re-release.

Still glad to own it though.

Glad people are excited about this one. It's my second favorite Zatoichi film. Hopefully Tokyo Shock gives a good transfer on this one, as they are pretty hit or miss.

Hopefully since the previous 25 movies got the Criterion treatment, they know that fans of the series expect something as good.

Just pre-ordered it. Hopefully Tokyo Shock, doesn't pull a Tokyo Shock and it actually comes out on time. Love this film.

Almost time

. I finished watched the Criterion set a couple of weeks ago and will be watching the Lone Wolf and Cub movies this weekend...you can say I am hyped for the upcoming release

Excited and nervous about this release. Excited, that it's coming out. Nervous if it will actually release anytime soon and the quality of the release.

I have not seen many Zatoichi films. Is this the quintessential one?

Not surprised. Tokyo Shock has a long track record of not releasing anything on release date.
