You're right! Where's Bebe's Kids in UHD, Kino?

• My pre-order hasn't shipped yet
• Delivery service x sucks
• I didn't get a slipcover
• This movie is amazing/sucks
• To really appreciate this disc you need x equipment
• Where does the code redeem
• Is there/why isn't there a remastered bluray
• The artwork would be much better if they used this instead
• Why is/isnt their grain

Oh geez, the slipcovers-- nothing is worse than checking in on a thread and it's just a bunch of posts about the damn slipcover. "Did anybody still get theirs with the slipcover?" "I couldn't find any at Best Buy with the slipcover." "Mine arrived with the slipcover!" "My slipcover got bent in the mail! "

Etc, etc....

You missed the first person to receive it never has time to view it and the 20 people who post a photo to prove that they have received it.

I'm certainly guilty of both of those, too Along with being the "has anybody actually watched this yet" guy.

Not to derail but I'd be all over a Blu-ray or UHD of Bebe's Kids, who do not die but in fact multiply.

Haha me too. I watched that movie like a hundred times on VHS when I was a kid, and have the movie on DVD. They just better remember to remaster and include The Itsy Bitsy Spider short when they do.

No sir! I didn't see you playing with your dolls again!

Good!

Absolute must buy.

You forgot the does anyone else’s disc freeze @ such & such moment?

Watch it end up looking better than the original Star Wars films on 4k.

[milo bloom]

Hot damn I am down for this. This film has been a mainstay of our household for decades now and I will own it in the best possible format.

[DenOfEarth]

ABOUT TIME! this should look good on UHD 4K.

One of my fave comedies, sci-fi movies and spoofs since i was 6 years old when i saw it twice in theaters.

Yeah a lot of the more serious films he produced but without credit. He didn't want people to think they were comedies and that's understandable. Comedies or dramas though, they were perfect.


Incidentally, is it possible that those low-pitched audio tracks are the ones that replaced the Van Halen song with a different one? Also to note, the famed Wihelm scream is also missing.

PS. e-mailing Kino about this as we speak.

The 2005 DVD had the low pitched audio but had the Van Halen song.

[NYorker]

Passed on the DVD...passed on the blu ray...I guess I knew what I was doing, LOL!
I wonder if it will include a version in ludicrous speed...?

[weberrygt]

... Ah buckle this!

Ludicrous speed, GO!

[AdmiralNoodles]

Nice announcement!

[Geoff D]

Great news. Love this flick, MGM have been sitting on the DV remaster for some time, makes perfect sense for Kino even though it's not some "important" title. MOAR PLS

You're 1st post made me wonder too. Im not a fan of vague statements. You said "they could have picked another movie." Please elaborate. What title would you like to see from them?
Now you say "be thankful". So why aren't you?
I'm happy to see the release. I'll even buy it. 4k lives matter.
