Paramount is on fire with all of these great prices on top rated 4K releases over at Amazon!
"Sleepy Hollow" and "Sweeney Todd" are both still $14.49!
"Once Upon a time in the West" and "Chinatown" were both $14.49 yesterday.
"The ZAZ Collection"! (Airplane / Naked Gun / Top Secret) dropped to $28.49 this morning (already off sale).

Wouldn't you know I needed every one of these titles!

That's Amazon matching the current Barnes & Noble sale on Paramount, which is still active.

Amazon Sleepy Hollow 4K was a slip-less reseal so by with caution.

Good to know info! Got slips for both "Sweeney Todd" and "Chinatown" so far. "Sleepy Hollow" and the ZAZ! Collection arrive tomorrow from Amazon.

Not sure why Paramount can't discount older films like "The Nutty Professor" (1962) and "Terms of Endearment" on 4K closer to the $15 price point and not $21.99 (which they are currently)!

Received mine today, was slipless too. How do you tell the re-seal ? DC missing ?

The shrink wrap was the re-seal style and was partially torn open. I didn’t bother to investigate further and just returned it. No big deal, just didn’t want people to get too excited.

Thanks. Inspected mine closely and see the 'Disc made in Germany' seal on the back, feel assured.

Received from Amazon the ZAZ! Collection in perfectly fine condition! However, as warned--the "Sleepy Hollow" was indeed the re-shrink wrapped, slip sleeve deprived variety! To add insult to injury, the plastic case had a crushed (broken) corner! Back it goes...

"Titanic" is tempting at the $14.49 price point. It's just not a film I can watch more than once or twice per decade.

How safe of a blind buy is this movie?

I like early Burton like Beetlejuice/Batman but absolutely hated Corpse Bride

Can you name more Burton movies you've seen? Or is that all?

It’s a pretty solid film. Do you enjoy the story of Sleepy Hollow?

It's my 2nd-favorite Burton film, behind Pee-Wee's Big Adventure.

I hope my opinion helps.

How could anyone hate Corpse Bride...?!

I was worried about how this was going to look but I thought it looked great, the blu ray had kind of a blown out look to it but it looks much better now. This film was always a guilty pleasure of mine it was my favorite book as a kid and i was big Johnny Depp fan. Its a lot of fun and pretty dark but the story kind of falls apart in the second act a little bit. I feel like Tim Burton started to really fall off after this one in my opinion

[Infallible Presence]

Kind of an interesting error or editing choice. During chapter 5 for both Blu-ray and the UHD, when the fatman speaks, but nothing is heard, but once he stops talking "Taken" is heard. Though his mouth is moving a little too much to be just saying "Taken." Another interesting note is despite that the DVD, and which I'm pretty sure the BD utilizes, since it's MPEG-2 encoded, was made just after the release has some jittering. But the nice thing now, of course, is that's no longer there. Shame we didn't get Atmos, what with all thunder and lighting throughout the movie.

Honestly it's better that Paramount left the audio alone since it's the theatrical audio mix and if they remixed it in Atmos there could've been an error somewhere.

True. However, they could always keep the DTS and add Atmos.

Paramount doesn't include original mixes usually, so if they did remix it into Atmos it would've only been that track. If a studio like Sony would've remixed it into Atmos I wouldn't have cared cause they include OG mixes now.
