Dick Maas movies being released October 7 2016

[Kev D]

DFW is releasing the following Dick Maas movies on blu-ray in the Benelux on October 7:

• De Lift
• Amsterdamned
• Flodder 1
• Flodder 2
• Flodder 3

This will be a boxset containing all 5 movies plus all movies get a single release as well.

Nice, hope they do a good job!

[NLScavenger]

Boxset MSRP: €49.99
Single release MSRP: €6.99

I wonder how DFW is going to justify the boxset MSRP, because it's cheaper to buy all films separately and judging from this twitter conversation there will likely not be any kind of bonus feature on the discs.

Any word on Flodder 3 if it's going to be the director's cut or the international cut? The latter one is missing 1/2 hour of footage.
I'm afraid they 're going to release the IC version.

De lift and Amsterdamned day one buying!!!

[FrankV]

Dick Maas isn't involved with these releases he confirmed on twitter.

[Socko]

No bonus features is no euros from me

[Redearth]

Flodder 1 was ****ed up, no 24p, but 25p.

[saltysam]

Any word on Amsterdamed yet? Is it english-friendly?

I came across this 8 film boxset, is this the one being discussed? I presume it has been delayed.
There are only 2 releases i am interested in (the lift and Amsterdamned) so ill be waiting for the single releases.

Yes, this is the one being discussed. And they are already available seperately. Unfortunately the technical specs are dissapointed. Flodder 1, 2 & 3, Amsterdamned and De Lift all have a 1080p50 transfer with PAL speedup and Dolby Digital 2.0 sound. And Amsterdamned and De Lift are cut. Moordwijven, Sint and Quiz are the same as previously released.

What was cut out of the Lift? What is missing?

Blue Underground will be releasing The Lift and Amsterdamned in 2017. Probably a good idea to wait for those

If you only want "Amsterdammed" the movie for what it is just buy if you can't wait, but if you go for quality don't even bother buying it. It's very cheap doh.
The problem with it is that it is an exact copy of the German release. Poor picture quality and it has been cut just like the German release. Where well on the end:

[Show spoiler]They not show the harpoen thru the head piece

.If you believe the reviews that I saw on bol.com. I was hoping to get this one but after reading that I am so disappointed so I am only gonna get "The Lift" and that one is pretty good.

The Germans released a second copy of Amsterdamned which is really uncut.

Which one is it? How do I know which one to pick?

Maybe it comes also. Strange that they don't doing nothing about it. Like in the beginning. Give it some good attention before releasing it. Well the release of"Amsterdammed" is a good example thats the way Holland handles their films in general when they release Dutch movies in Holland. Bad
Look at Paul Verhoeven's "Soldier of Orange" our biggest classic. Still no good release on BR. In that case I am ashamed to be a Dutchman.

"Soldier of Orange" has his 40th Anniversary in 2017 and I pretty shure that they not gonna give damn and or give any attention to it and just forget it.

Hi you can recogize it:

It says uncut on the cover.

I have inside information that so people do certainly care about Soldier of Orange. Some people ar really working on it, but it is not easy and they are not sure they are gonna succeed.

Seems DutchFilmworks took months to announce it but came with a cheap quick release with titles in Dolby Digital 2.0 only and no subtitles or extras at all.

I saw this review on BOL.com by lakte99:

Ik ben zelf een groot fan van de films van Dick Maas dus had de box alvast vooruit besteld.
Toen ik hem binnen kreeg heb ik hem uitgepakt en de verpakking ziet er best goed uit totdat ik wat foutjes zag op de verpakking van de box de beeldverhoudingen staan er namelijk verkeerd op vermeld.
Quiz en Sint zijn gewoon dezelfde uitgaves die al eerder zijn uitgegeven niks mis mee toen ik bij Moordwijven kwam was ik wel een beetje teleurgesteld want helaas hebben ze alle extra's er af gehaald en staat alleen maar de film op de blu-ray. In deze box zit ook De Lift de allereerste film van Dick Maas helaas hebben ze daar ook alle extra's af gehaald maar ben wel super tevreden over die blu-ray want hij heeft echt heel mooi beeld en is echt super fijn om naar te kijken een echte aanrader! Over Amsterdamned ben ik weer wat minder tevreden want daar is namelijk in geknipt en het beeld is niet al te mooi vind het zelf niet zo heel fijn kijken het had mooier gekund maar natuurlijk wel een topfilm! En de making off staat ook bij de blu-ray op dat is wel weer een plus puntje VOOR DEGENEN DIE HEB NIET GEZIEN HEBBEN EVEN DIT STUKJE OVERSLAAN! Zoals ik al zei er is geknipt in Amsterdamned een paar seconden maar wel een paar belangrijke seconden namelijk het stukje dat de duiker met een pijl in zijn keel zit die paar seconden hebben ze er helaas uit gehaald vind ik super jammer want vind dat dat echt bij die film hoort. De 3 Flodder films daar ben ik zeer tevreden over helaas staan daar ook geen extra's bij op maar het beeld is heel mooi en super fijn om naar te kijken het maakt niet uit hoe vaak je ze al gezien hebt maar ze blijven super leuk! Persoonlijk vind ik Flodder in Amerika de minste van de trilogy.
