Problem: The final finished master was missing an original film editorial fade to black insert in the film. Warner Bros is pressing new discs.

No idea, if Warner Bros will start a replacement program for it? Will update this topic.

Problem: Compatibility issues with some players. A new disc by 20th FOX will solve this. The Paramount release (US/CA/KR) is not affected.

Problem: Known on the UK release: compatibility issues with some players with the 4K Blu-ray disc. Plus the included standard Blu-ray was an old release.

Your text for 2001 says replacement program unknown, but you've added it to this list. Do you have some new info?

I have no info yet. That's why I left it open and placed a question mark. But Warner Bros is pressing new discs. With this info, consumers can always contact Warner Bros. We will have to wait when it's December 18th, 2018 when new stock is expected to arrive.

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon (UK) could be added. First press only worked on a select few players and the included blu-ray was the older release, not from the new 4k master.

Ah yes, I remember that one as well. Added.

Do we know anything about 2001 yet? I emailed WB Tuesday about it and haven't heard anything.

No announced replacement program because our discs weren't supposed to go out in the first place. They might replace them through support emails, might not. You know as much as anyone.

Does anyone have an example of the error?

Those early 2001 discs are now collector's items.

I don't think a pressing with an error is THAT desirable.

FilmFreakosaurus · 12-25-2018, 04:31 AM

I wouldn't get that "Grease" disc exchanged just yet. For a split second blip you may not catch, you now instead get a whole section of the movie with HDR encoding errors that can cause brightness fluctuations.

Don't you know if it is problem only of first pressing, and it is fixed now? I have the UK version - and it does not play on any of my Panasonic players (even with newest update).

Not really, since they don’t seem to replace defective discs anymore.

Not just section but sections, plural. The flickering is minimised in Dolby Vision but quite blatant in HDR10.

It has a unique cover, and the error actually ads a couple seconds of footage rather than remove anything. So yes, I bet it's desirable to some. Whether it'll be worth any kind of real money though, I dunno.

I know it's late, but honestly, don't.
1) It was literally 1 scene with a hard transition instead of fade. (Discs got sent out just before they were able to recall them)
2)Can always buy a corrected disc later, but again, it's one transition.
3) Think of resell, or just collector's value later on.

Honestly i can see it as a "cool thing i have in my collection" deal. But still.

Were it better to not make them in the first place?
