Excalibur 4K UHD (1981)

[BluBonnet]

Excalibur is coming according to Bill Hunt

[Maximux]

Great!!

[Zechs Merquise]

But from whom??!!

Another fine early '80s sword-and-sorcery film on UHD to look forward to.

Now all I'm missing are Clash of the Titans (1981) and Krull (1983) to round out my collection of them.

If Bill's reporting it, then I've got the feeling it's gonna be Criterion. They'll substitute that wonderful original poster for something shit.

Glad this is coming, though. Gorgeous film!

[HundredYearLurker]

Oh the speculars!

[PowellPressburger]

What if it is ARROW?

but please not Critealion

[Streamingsux]

This seems like one that Arrow would do..

[Uncle Bud]

I'll be glad just to have the movie...but I do hope they'll include deleted scenes, the original Boorman commentary, and the two documentaries. And please...the original poster art.

That's....Peak poster art

Excalibur is a dreamlike experience, with a lot of shadowy/foggy scenes. Seems like challenging but potentially rewarding content for 4K.

Finally, get to see to see the best use of Carmina Burana in UHD:

Knights Riding - O Fortuna - YouTube

Of all the movies that NEED original poster art on the cover...this one is at the top of the list. The blu-ray is fine...if dated. But that cover is absolutely hideous..

That is hopefully with ARROW and Fidelity in Motion on the encode PaaLease!

It is a pretty good use of Carmina Burana, to be sure. Though personally I think it was used even better in Stone’s The Doors, but to each their own

You're definitely one of those the sky is not blue people. You'd argue with a damn fire hydrant.

I'll take it, but I still want Exorcist II.

Please let it be Arrow…Please let it be Arrow…
