Again, at last!

BluProofie · 12-12-2024, 01:57 PM

Do they ship to the US?

Does anyone believe that Criterion will ever rerelease this in a 4K edition? Or, is this German UHD our best bet in the near term, meaning the next 2-3 years?

Losey · 12-12-2024, 03:14 PM

They don’t seem to ship to North America

panasonicst60 · 12-12-2024, 03:32 PM

We need a US 4k release....Need, not want.

Losey · 12-12-2024, 03:40 PM

Does Second Sight still owes this in UK?

Telemachus · 12-12-2024, 04:32 PM

So this means someone else will probably be doing it soon, I'll wait

I'm sure Criterion will do it's miracle like Videodrome.

BobSimms · 12-12-2024, 05:02 PM

Who will have the better encode, though?

It’s practically guaranteed that Plaion, who use LSP, will have the stronger encode. If you have the Criterion BD, keeping that and going with the Plaion for video feels logical to me.

Spartan21 · 12-12-2024, 06:08 PM

So OrbitDVD, Diabolik, etc., won't have this one?

dallywhitty · 12-12-2024, 06:29 PM

Need Second Sight to release The Brood and Scanners again!

TheOneWithThePrize · 12-12-2024, 06:44 PM

David Hewlett, LOL! Methinks Plaion is a bit confused.

postmodel · 12-13-2024, 03:09 AM

Oh man. I don’t need the sequels on Blu-ray again but this looks gorgeous.

dallywhitty · 12-13-2024, 03:18 AM

Oh, I love that cover. I actually like Scanners II quite a bit. I didn't care for the third one, but I've been meaning to give it another shot.

PowellPressburger · 12-13-2024, 03:54 AM

I hated the color timing of the Criterion blu-ray.

Telemachus · 12-13-2024, 04:01 AM

Would

SpookyDollhouse · 12-13-2024, 11:17 AM

That cover is so uninspired and lazy

Hopefully there's a more definitive color grade for UHD, we'll see what happens in other territories and what Cronenberg signs off on.
