BlacKkKlansman 4K UHD (2018)

[Pieter V]

The extras are boring:

• A Spike Lee Joint (4m 55s)
• BlacKkKlansman Extended Trailer Featuring Prince's "Mary Don't You Weep" ( 4m 10s)

Too bad they didnt include the original film this one is a remake of, that would have been a great extra.

Is it a remake of something? From everything I've read it is an adaptation of a 2014 memoir.

It's the sequel to American History X.

American History X is the sequel to this, but BlackkKlansman is the sequel to Mississippi Burnin’

Yup. Not 100% clone but pretty close:

The Black Klansman (1966)

Code Red put a DVD of the original film out in 2011:

umm reading about it over there it doesn't even sound close!
plus how in the world could it? That film came out in '66 and this new movie is based on real events that happened in the '70s!

Press release/announcement should be up today. Dolby Atmos (which seems to be the case) and Dolby Vision would be nice.

[SlaughterX]

Missed this in theaters so this will be a day one blind buy for me most likely.

Side note... I thought the main character was Eddie Griffith. Now I find out it's Denzel Washington's son. Lol.

Great film + DV = Sold.

From the press release. Obviously the sound specs are wrong. It says Dolby Atmos on the back cover, but press release is press release.

Is there much action in this, or is it mainly a talky/investigative film?

The climax gets pretty intense with some action. There are a handful of drama action scenes throughout, but it is a lot of drama talk. It's still encapsulating if you ask me and way funnier than I ever expected it to be.

This movie flew by, and to me, that's the sign of a good movie.

I never once felt bored or thought to check my phone. The credits were rolling just as the movie seemed to start. Kept my attention the entire time.

Good to know!

Zodiac comes to mind as a movie that I thought was pretty good, but it was a little too slow for my liking. It dragged a lot at times in my opinion.

Trying to decide if I should get this early, or just wait for a price drop. Thanks for the replies so far!
