the original theatrical poster and revised blu ray artwork have always been abyssal, that international 4K cover which is altered from revised blu ray artwork is slightly better. I'm not a fan of popart/mondo type artwork but any of these are better than what is currently available. maybe best buy would consider it

Agent Kay · 07-16-2018, 09:24 PM

Ewww Photoshop art.
I will have to stare at my original quad poster for an hour

The original artwork is perfect. A giant bearded Sean Connery head and the periscope of a submarine tells you all you need to know about the movie - It's about a bearded Sean Connery and a submarine. Two tickets please!

I don't need a brooding Alec Baldwin head. He doesn't even have a beard.

Son of a b****. I knew someone was going to call me out on that!

Have you guys noticed that on that cover it says "4k ULTRA HD + BLU-RAY" and it doesn't say DIGITAL?

Hopefully we get the Digital Copies in the USA. I can't stay longer than a month without watching the THFRC, PG and CAP - I love these movies and these stories so much, that I need to have the digital files on my phone at any time.

We noticed, we don't care.

That’s the Scandinavian cover and there are no digital copies here. The US version will probably have it.

Best Buy removed the links for the individual releases soon after the Jack Ryan 5-Film Collection 4K UHD was announced.

Just got this notice from Best Buy

Code:

We're sorry – your ordered item(s) are taking longer to fulfill than we anticipated.
Please be assured we'll continue to work on this order, and once the item(s) become available we will let you know. If we are not able to complete your order by September 19, 2018, we will notify you and cancel the item(s).
To make up for this inconvenience, we are giving you a $4.35 credit - the amount of shipping the item – which will be applied to your order when it ships.

@Viking61 is correct, THFRO no longer shows as an individual title at Best Buy. Does anyone know if (a) this has been in reality cancelled by Paramount in favor of only releasing a 5 film set or (b) this will actually get released?

Robert George · 08-21-2018, 01:43 PM

Best Buy has the 5-film set priced at $49.99 now. Even if you don't like a couple of the films, $50 bucks for all 5 movies in 4K is damn cheap.

punisher · 08-21-2018, 01:56 PM

I would have to sell 4 for sure...

Ernest Rister · 08-21-2018, 02:08 PM

Love Hunt for Red October and Clear and Present Danger, like Patriot Games. Not a fan of Sum of All Fears or Jack Ryan. I hope individual releases are made available -- even if it's just $10 a title on the box set, that's still $20 spent on films I don't like and wouldn't watch and would have a hard time off-loading to anybody, even as a gift.

Yep, I am leaning this way myself.

Not to mention the code set going for $25 so $25 for all 5 discs in the vase is pretty good!

Artist can't draw proper mouths and eyebrows to save his life. Sam Neill looks damned sinister.
